NCT ID NCT07103876
Summary
This study is checking if a surgery to remove a small gland in the neck (parathyroidectomy) helps older adults with a specific hormone problem walk farther, get stronger, and be more active. It will follow 80 people aged 60 and older having this surgery at UF Health. Researchers will measure their strength, walking ability, and daily activity before and after the operation to see if it helps.
