Summary
The investigators hypothesise that parathyroid hormon (PTH) depletion interferes with normal
activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-axis and the
renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS), which in turn may impact morbidity and quality
of life. The main objective of the current study is to test if PTH deficiency influences the
secretion of corticosteroids and whether any abnormalities in the HPA-axis and the
RAAS-system can be reversed by PTH infusion.
