Role fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) in developmently of cardiorenal outcomes in chronic kidney disease stages III-V
The aim of our study was to investigate the association of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) with сardiorenal outcomes in chronic kidney disease stages III-V. FGF-23 was measured using commercially kits in 83 CKD stages III-V patients (40 females and 43 males aged 37-68 years). The patients were examined clinically with estimation of the levels of parathormone, calcium, phosphorus. Echocardiography on Aloka-4000 unit was made. Left ventricular geometry was assessed by J.Gottdiener classification. Therapeutic policy aimed of correction of anemia, arterial hypertension and phosphorus-calcium metabolism. FGF-23 correlated with renal function and weight of left ventricular hypertrophy. We have shown that changes in bone mediator and phosphate metabolism induced by CKD are independently associated with сardiorenal dysfunction.
