CKD-MBD

chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder(English)

  • a complication of CKD characterized by dysregulated mineral and bone metabolism, bone abnormalities, and vascular calcification, all which contribute to cardiovascular disease and mortality. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) reflects the function of the parathyroid gland and also takes part in the metabolism of minerals. In circulation, there are different fragments of PTH. Accurate detection of blood PTH levels is crucial for evaluating parathyroid function and for the clinical management of CKD-MBD patients, while the PTH measurement has predictive value in assessing the effectiveness of parathyroidectomy
