Normocalcemic versus Hypercalcemic Primary Hyperparathyroidism: More Stone than Bone?

Table 3

Bone mineral density in normocalcemic and hypercalcemic PHPT.

BMD^#	Normocalcemic	Hypercalcemic	Group total	𝑃 value
(i) Distal radius	0.54 ± 0.15	0.45 ± 0.18	0.50 ± 0.17	𝑃^(1)=0.046
(ii) Lumbar spine	0.95 ± 0.22	0.95 ± 0.26	0.95 ± 0.24	𝑃^(1)=0.885
(iii) Femoral neck	0.73 ± 0.15	0.79 ± 0.19	0.76 ± 0.17	𝑃^(1)=0.123
