A lower proportion of circulating active parathyroid hormone in peritoneal dialysis does not allow the PTH inter-method adjustment proposed for haemodialysis.

Introduction: Parathyroid hormone (PTH) shows a strong correlation with histomorphometric and biochemical parameters of bone turnover, however its measurement presents limitations due to inter-method variability. Circulating PTH is a mixture of peptides, but only on its whole form (1-84 PTH) is resp...
