Risk Factors for Severe Hypocalcemia in Patients with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism after Total Parathyroidectomy

Table 3

Logistic regression analysis of the association between risk factors and postoperative severe hypocalcemia.

Variable	Estimate	SE		Adjusted OR	95% CI
Preoperative calcium	−3.181	0.412	<0.001	0.042	0.019∼0.093
Preoperative Lg-ALP	2.347	0.323	<0.001	10.452	5.555∼19.667
Preoperative Lg-iPTH	3.834	0.618	<0.001	46.245	13.783∼155.157

iPTH, intact parathyroid hormone; ALP, alkaline phosphatase; OR, odds ratio. Forward selection was used with required to enter the equation.
