Brief summary
The investigators aim to study potential racial differences in renal phosphorus handling by provocatively testing urinary phosphorus excretion using parathyroid hormone infusions in healthy white volunteers compared to healthy black volunteers.
Interventions
1-34 parathyroid infusion at 0.055 mcg/kg/hr for 6 hours
