Blueprint ID | Learning Objectives |
10023 | identify in quantitative terms the various pools of body calcium and kinetics of exchange between them |
10024 | discuss the role of calcium and phosphorus in physiologic processes |
10025 | identify the hormones involved in calcium regulation – PTH, calcitriol, calcitonin and explain their chemical nature, regulation, secretion and action in normal physiology |
10026 | explain the process of bone formation and resorption at the cellular level and how RANKL/OPG controls these processes |
10027 | demonstrate basic knowledge of PTHrP and its clinical significance in malignancy and lactation |
10028 | demonstrate a basic knowledge of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) and its role in regulating phosphorus metabolism, and how excess or deficiency of FGF23 causes disease states |
10029 | explain the role of the calcium receptor in regulating parathyroid and renal tubular function with respect to calcium |
