Retrospective Analysis of Quality of Life Changes in Patients Undergoing Parathyroidectomy for End-Stage Renal Disease

Data were retrospectively collected from an established database of patients who underwent surgery for renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). Extracted information included demographic and clinical characteristics (age, gender, education level, clinical symptoms), baseline quality of life assessed by the 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), and completed follow-up assessments of SF-36 scores, depression, and anxiety at one, three, six months, and one year postoperatively.
