Abstract
One of the major hormonal disturbances in uraemia is the state of secondary hyperparathyroidism and the elevation in blood levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) [1]. In an editorial published in 1977, Massry suggested that the state of chronic excess of PTH in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) may exert a widespread adverse effect on many organs, and that PTH may be a uraemic toxin [2]. Indeed, the available evidence shows that PTH satisfies the strict criteria of a uraemic toxin in that its nature and structure is known, its blood levels are elevated, a relationship between it and the uraemic manifestation(s) exists, an improvement in many signs and symptoms of uraemia follows a reduction in its blood levels, and the administration of PTH to experimental animals with normal renal function produces derangements similar to those seen in uraemic patients.
