“…However, a significant fraction of the patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) can maintain a normal serum calcium concentration despite the primary increase in PTH secretion [17,19]. They were categorized to the normocalcemic PHPT (NCPHPT) in the earlier studies mainly based on the normal total serum calcium concentration [11,12,14,21,24,26,27,30], but various proportions of thus defined NCPHPT patients were later found to have persistent or intermittent elevation of ionized serum calcium [8,[17][18][19][20]31]. However, still other patients exhibiting symptomatic PHPT maintained normocalcemia in terms of both ionizing and total serum calcium concentrations [19,20].…”
