Research concerning the effects on cardiac electrical activity in PHPT is scarce. In the current study, 45 consecutive pHPT patients with hypercalcemia and elevated parathyroid hormone levels were assessed clinically, biochemically and by 24-h ECG monitoring before, one and six months after curative parathyroidectomy (PTX). There were 41 female and four male subjects, their mean age was 54.6 \u00b1 14.6 years. 20 patients were normotensive and 25 had previously or newly diagnosed hypertension. Patients without hypertension compared to the hypertensive ones had lower BMI: 23.2 (20.3-25.4) versus 26.7 (24.8-28.4), higher total calcium: 11.9 \u00b1 0.8 versus 11.3 \u00b1 0.9 mg\/dL, and shorter QTc: 418 \u00b1 17 versus 436 \u00b1 17 ms, p&amp;lt;0.001. Before surgery, Ca and PTH correlated negatively with QTc. Upon curative PTX, the median number of supraventricular premature beats (SVPBs) and ventricular premature beats (VPBs) decreased significantly, which was paralleled by a 37% decrease in the prevalence of clinically significant SVPBs (&amp;gt;76 per 24h), and a 29% decrease in the number of patients with more than 3 VPBs\/24h six months after surgery. QTc increased from 428 \u00b1 19 before to 441 \u00b1 17 ms after PTX. The change in the median number of SVPBs and VPBs was comparable between patients with versus without HT. Curative PTX normalizes QTc, reduces supraventricular and ventricular extrasystoles in patients with hypercalcemic pHPT.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fendo.2025.1601897","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,23]],"date-time":"2025-07-23T08:45:37Z","timestamp":1753260337000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The effect of surgical cure of primary hyperparathyroidism on cardiac electrical activity: a cross\u2212sectional study"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Piotr","family":"Kmie\u0107","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Izabela","family":"Karwacka-Bujak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Micha\u0142","family":"Bohdan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Renata","family":"\u015awi\u0105tkowska-Stodulska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Krzysztof","family":"Sworczak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jbmr.4677","article-title":"Evaluation and management of primary hyperparathyroidism: summary statement and guidelines from the fifth international workshop","volume":"37","author":"Bilezikian","year":"2022","journal-title":"J Bone Miner Res"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1007\/s00198-016-3716-2","article-title":"Primary hyperparathyroidism: review and recommendations on evaluation, diagnosis, and management.
