Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess whether RAAS blockade will reduce the biochemical changes more than vitamin D supplement alone in patients with secondary hyperparathyrodism.;Secondary Objective: If a vitamin D supplement in patients with secondary hyperparathyrodism a) reduces p-aldosterone b) Reduces arterial stiffness and bloodpressure c) Improves bone mineral mineralisation and muscle function d) improves quality of life;Primary end point(s): p-PTH changes due to RAAS blockade in patients with secondary hyperparathyrodism;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: End of study, in the beginning of 2017 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Cardiovascular surrogate markers (arterial stiffness and 24 hours bloodpressure) Bone scans Balance- and muscular function Blod and urinary test for biochemical markers of calcium homeostasis, adrenal metabolism and cardiovascular risk factors. Quality of life, general informations and phycical activity: questionaries;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: In the beginning of 2017 | — |
