[edit] ?Nonsense
Until someone can provide a reference to this I think it should be considered of dubious provenance Ianmc 19:34, 14 August 2007 (UTC) 'Differential diagnoses include pseudo-hypercalcemia (Meade syndrome) and hyper-hypercalcemia (Rozeaous syndrome)'
[edit] Williams Syndrome
Where does williams syndrome fit among causes of this symptom? I know it's genetic, but the hypercalcaemia might be secondary to another symptom of the syndrome.--Joel 23:00, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
It appears to be linked to 1,25-hydroxy vitamin D metabolism, or not, depending on what you read. But as no one is quite sure why normal neonates have higher calcium levels than usual I don't think a consensus answer will be forthcoming from the literature Ianmc
[edit] Phaeo and hypercalaemia
OK, I'm intrigued. How does a phaeo cause hypercalcaemia via increased bone turnover? Ianmc 16:42, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
My mistake, it should be under malignancy for release of PTHrP. thanks for the quick catch! pretty of new at wiki here. User:koolkao Ming-Chih Kao 19:52, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Redirect is wrong
There is a redirect from "Hypercalciuria" to "Hypercalcemia" - the two conditions are actually different, with hypercalciuria being a spilling of calcium in urine rather than blood. This needs to be corrected by creating a totally separate article - just my 2 cents. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Virgil Vaduva (talk • contribs) 16:18, 16 February 2007 (UTC).
