Association of Relatively Low Serum Parathyroid Hormone With Malnutrition-Inflammation Complex and Survival in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
Background Low serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been implicated as a primary biochemical marker of adynamic bone disease in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who undergo maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) treatment. We hypothesized that the malnutrition-inflammation complex is associated...

Zusammenfassung: | Background Low serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been implicated as a primary biochemical marker of adynamic bone disease in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who undergo maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) treatment. We hypothesized that the malnutrition-inflammation complex is associated with low PTH levels in these patients and confounds the PTH-survival association. Methods We examined 748 stable MHD outpatients in southern California and followed them for up to 5 years (October 2001–December 2006). Results In 748 MHD patients, serum PTH |
