Association between proteinuria and mineral metabolism disorders in chronic kidney disease: the Japan chronic kidney disease database extension (J-CKD-DB-Ex).

ABSTRACT: Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) are recognized as a systemic disease affecting the prognosis of patients with CKD. Proper management of CKD-MBD is important to improve the prognosis of patients with CKD. Although proteinuria is recognized as a poor prognostic factor in these patients, few reports have examined its association with CKD-MBD. We examined the association between proteinuria and CKD-MBD using data from the Japan Chronic Kidney Disease Database Extension (J-CKD-DB-Ex). Among the patients registered in the J-CKD-DB-Ex, 30,977 with CKD stages G2-G5 who had serum creatinine, albumin, calcium, and phosphate concentrations measured at least once and urinalysis performed were included. The patients were divided into four groups (negative, 1+, 2+, and 3+) acc
