WCN26-8785 Bone-Heart Axis in Mild Chronic Kidney Disease–Mineral and Bone Disorder: Phosphate Metabolism and Tissue-Specific Remodeling

Key Points

The study aims to explore how phosphate dysregulation affects cardiovascular changes in mild chronic kidney disease.
Utilized an existing CKD cohort consisting of 1,213 individuals aged around 48 years.
Examined the association between serum phosphate levels and echocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy.
Conducted a translational analysis to uncover mechanisms of cardiovascular remodeling related to phosphate metabolism.
Echocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy showed a significant association with serum phosphate levels in the cohort.
Identified potential mechanisms linking phosphate dysregulation to cardiac remodeling in patients with mild chronic kidney disease.

Abstract

In a prior CKD S1-5 cohort (N=1,213; 48% male; age 48±16 years), echocardiographic features of left ventricular hypertrophy were independently associated with serum phosphate (Pi). To elucidate mechanisms linking Pi dysregulation to cardiovascular remodeling in mild CKD-MBD, we conducted translational study.
