| Popis: | Aim: To evaluate the relationship among alveolar bone loss (ABL), bone status and calcium-regulating hormones in liver transplantees. Patients and Methods: Twenty-one liver transplantees underwent a full oral examination. The correlations among bone densitometry, bone metabolic status and drug treatment were examined. Results: Twelve patients had osteopenia, and six were osteoporotic. ABL was 4.33±2.32 mm (range 0.67–9.92). Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels ranged from 14 to 106 (mean 55.2±26.4). The mean 25(OH)D3 was 11.68±4.7, range 3.5–21.1 ng/ml. Nine patients were vitamin D deficient ( |
