The association between hypoparathyroidism and cognitive impairment: a systematic review

Hypocalcemia and low parathyroid hormone levels have been commonly suggested as factors able to induce central nervous system disturbances. However, evidences on the occurrence of cognitive impairment are limited or underestimated. The aim of this review is, therefore, to systematically summarize the available evidence concerning the occurrence of cognitive impairment among subjects suffering from idiopathic or secondary hypoparathyroidism.
