A Correlative Study on IL-6, TNF-Α, Deoxypyridinoline (DPD) In Patients with Hyperparathyroidism & Healthy Individuals

Abstract

Hyperparathyroidism is associated with metabolic disturbances, including alterations in cytokine levels and bone resorption markers. This case-control study aims to evaluate the correlation of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and deoxypyridinoline (DPD) levels in 150 patients with hyperparathyroidism and 150 healthy individuals. The study examines differences between these groups, using statistical analysis and graphical representations in the form of histograms and pie charts. The findings contribute to understanding the inflammatory and bone degradation processes in hyperparathyroidism.
