Zusammenfassung:Background Low 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels are common in patients with non–dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD). The associations between low 25(OH)D levels and mortality in non–dialysis-dependent patients with CKD are unclear. Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting & Participants Patients with stages 3-4 CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate, 15-59 mL/min/1.73 m2 ; n = 12,673) who had 25(OH)D levels measured after the diagnosis of CKD in the Cleveland Clinic Health System. Predictor 25(OH)D levels categorized into 3 groups:
