Median age was 57 (IQR = 47-65). Most were male (n = 888, 61%), black (n = 801, 55%), and did not undergo parathyroidectomy (n = 1388, 95.4%). Of these, 29.4% (n = 429) of the patients were diagnosed and treated, 23.4% (n = 354) were diagnosed and not treated, and 46.2% (n = 672) remained undiagnosed. Predictive factors for diagnosis and treatment included elevated pre-kidney transplantation PTH levels \u2265 600 pg\/mL, postoperative PTH levels \u2265 300 pg\/mL, and elevated postoperative calcium (\u226510.4\u00a0mg\/dL).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Most patients with biochemical 3HPT remain undiagnosed.
