Circulating FGF-23 concentrations may reflect alterations in ongoing bone formation along with active mineralization, but not exclusively in bone formation or mineralization. Abnormal mineralization lag time (> 100 days) was mainly seen in patients with FGF-23 levels less than 2,000 pg/mL, while very high levels of FGF-23 are associated with normal mineralization lag time.
