Association between Serum Inorganic Phosphorus Levels and Adverse Outcomes in Chronic Kidney Disease: The Fukushima CKD Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Objective Although an association between serum inorganic phosphorus levels and a poor prognosis has been noted in dialysis patients, these associations have been insufficiently reported in non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) patients. This study attempted to determine the association between serum inorganic phosphorus levels and adverse outcomes in Japanese NDD-CKD patients. Methods We investigated the relationships between serum inorganic phosphorus levels and adverse outcomes, such as kidney events, cardiovascular events, and all-cause death, in Japanese NDD-CKD patients using longitudinal data from the Fukushima CKD Cohort Study with a median follow-up period of 2.8 years. The study evaluated 822 patients with NDD-CKD enrolled between June 2012 and July 2014. A kidn
