Abstract

Low plasma 25-hydroxyvitaminD (25OHD) levels, reduced muscle strength and increased body mass index (BMI) are well-known characteristics of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Mechanisms for low 25OHD levels, increased BMI and potential changes after parathyroidectomy are unknown. Muscle strength is reported to increase following surgical cure, but whether the improvement corresponds to healthy controls' performances remains largely unknown.
