Description
Zamfirova, Boyanov, and Naydenov compared hearts in a hormone disorder in this study from twenty twenty-six. Overactive parathyroid glands raise blood calcium and have been tied to heart trouble. The team screened thousands of hospital patients to find fifty-four confirmed cases. Each got heart tracings, a day-long rhythm recording, and an ultrasound scan.
Patients showed slightly higher blood pressure and far more diabetes than controls. Wall thickening of the main pumping chamber was nearly twice as common. Two ultrasound measures of stiffness and pressure also ran higher, as did valve hardening. Every patient landed in the high-risk band. After adjustment, several ultrasound gaps persisted. The authors caution that the design cannot prove cause.
