Fibroblast growth factor 23 independently predicts adverse outcomes after an acute coronary syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

Abnormalities of mineral metabolism (MM) have been related to cardiovascular disorders. There are no reports on the prognostic role of MM after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We aim to assess the prognostic role of MM after an ACS.

Methods and results

Plasma levels of components of MM [fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), calcidiol, parathormone, klotho, and phosphate], high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide were measured in 1190 patients at discharge from an ACS. The primary outcome was a combination of acute ischaemic events, heart failure (HF) and death. Secondary outcomes were the separate components of the primary outcome. Age was 61.7 ± 12.2 years, and 77.1% were men. Median follow-up was 5.44 (3.03-7.46) years. Two hu
