Validation of FGF-23 as a Biomarker for Phosphorus Homeostasis in Hemodialysis Patients

Dina Hilal Ibrahim Hilal;

Abstract


Chronic kidney disease is a public health epidemic that affects millions of people worldwide. Presence of CKD predisposes individuals to high risks of ESRD, cardiovascular disease, and premature death.
Disordered phosphate homeostasis with elevated circulating levels of fibroblast growth factor- 23 is an early and pervasive complication of CKD. CKD is likely the most common cause of chronically elevated FGF23 levels, and the clinical condition in which levels are most markedly elevated.
