Study information

Primary study designInterventional
Study designRandomised controlled trial
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Scientific title
Study objectives1. In patients undergoing dialysis, do calcimimetics reduce calcium deposition in the arteries and thereby reduce risk of cardiovascular events?
2. Is medical parathyroidectomy superior to surgical parathyroidectomy in reducing cardiovascular risks and improving abnormalities of mineral metabolism?
