Deviations from the expected relationship between serum FGF23 and other markers in children with CKD: a cross-sectional study

Abstract Background High levels of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) are associated with mortality. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), FGF23 levels rise as renal function declines. We analyzed the contribution of laboratory values to the variance of FGF23 levels in relationship to a curve of expecte...
