Elevated admission serum calcium phosphate product as an independent risk factor for acute kidney injury in hospitalized patients

BACKGROUND: is also associated with systemic calcification. However, the risk of AKI development among hospitalized patients with different admission calcium-phosphate product levels remains unclear. METHODS: as the reference group, was obtained by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: was associated with an increased risk of developing AKI in both chronic kidney disease (CKD) and non-CKD patients. CONCLUSION: Elevated admission CaP was independently associated with an increased risk for in-hospital AKI.
