Calcium metabolism and its disorders: hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia

Tenčíková Alexandra

Clin Osteol 2023; 28(4): 125-132

Calcium (Ca2+) is one of the most important ions in the body. It plays numerous body functions such as skeletal mineralization, blood coagulation, nerve conduction, muscle contraction, transmission of intracellular processes and enzyme activation. In human body, it occurs mainly extracellularly, and its greatest amount (about 99 %) is in the bones and teeth in the form of hydroxyapatite. Serum calcium exists in free form (ionized), bound to proteins (mainly albumin) and bound to complexes. The level of total serum calcium is therefore dependent on the level of serum albumin. When its level is abnormal, ionized calcium or calcium corrected for albumin...

Introduction: The healing of craniofacial bones is a complex and multi-stage process that can be influenced by many factors of endogenous and exogenous origin. These factors include heavy metals, which play a significant role in the metabolism of the human body. Fractures of the craniofacial bones carry a particular risk, both because of their proximity to many important anatomical structures but also because of the function they represent for the beginning of two important systems: the digestive system and the respiratory system. It is therefore important to restore full function and normal bone metabolism as soon as possible. Objective: The aim of...
