A thiazide diuretic often considered the prototypical member of this class. It reduces the reabsorption of electrolytes from the renal tubules. This results in increased excretion of water and electrolytes, including sodium, potassium, chloride, and magnesium. It has been used in the treatment of several disorders including edema, hypertension, diabetes insipidus, and hypoparathyroidism.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Medication
  • Immunology
DEF

The condition produced by greatly reduced function of the parathyroids possibly due to autoimmune disease or genetic factors, or by the removal of those bodies. The lack of parathyroid hormone leads to a fall in plasma calcium level - which may result in increased neuro-muscular excitability and, ultimately, tetany - followed by a rise in plasma phosphate level, resulting in a decrease in bone resorption and consequent increased density of bone.

Domaine(s)
  • Médicaments
  • Immunologie
DEF

État pathologique résultant de la suppression d'hormone parathyroïdienne (ablation chirurgicale des glandes parathyroïdes ou leur destruction par irradiation, compliquant une intervention sur la glande thyroïde). Il est caractérisé avant tout par la tétanie (tétanie parathyréoprive).

CONT

Hypoparathyroïdie : [...] Des autoanticorps antiparathyroïdes ont été retrouvés par immunofluorescence et fixation du complément, mais de façon assez irrégulière.
