Background: Bone mineral disorders in chronic kidney disease (CKD-MBD) is one of the complications that occurs due to systemic disorders of minerals and bones in chronic kidney disease (CKD). This syndrome is one or a combination of laboratory abnormalities (phosphate, parathyroid hormone, and vitamin D), bone disorders (turnover, mineralization, volume, linear growth, and strength), and/ or vascular calcification or other soft tissue. It is associated with high mortality and morbidity in CKD patients. To determine the relationship of vitamin D levels and bone mineral density (BMD) examination with the hemodialysis vintage in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis at RSUD Dr. Zainoel Abidin.
