Calcium and parathyroid hormone behaviour after exogenous secretin infusion in man.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder caused by the loss of expression of paternally transcribed genes in a highly imprinted region of chromosome 15q11-13. The clinical phenotype has been well characterized, mostly related to hypothalamic dysfunction. Even though central hypothyroidism has been...
