Serum fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) levels are independently associated with left ventricular mass and myocardial performance index in maintenance haemodialysis patients

Abstract: Plasma FGF-23 concentration is independently associated with LVMI and MPI in maintenance haemodialysis patients. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify whether increased serum FGF-23 level is a marker or a potential mechanism for left ventricular involvement in patients with end-stage renal disease.

“…Since the plasma FGF-23 level is regulated by serum Pi [22,23] and vica versa [24,25], it appears that the plasma log FGF-23 levels should be different between groups. In many studies, it was reported that there was a correlation between serum FGF-23 levels and serum creatinine, phosphate, Ca x P product, and parathormon levels [7,20,26,27]. We also found a positive and signi�icant relationship between log FGF-23 levels and serum phosphate, log PTH , and Ca x P product.…”

“…In fact, a strong positive association between FGF-23 serum levels, impaired vasoreactivity atherosclerosis, left ventricular mass index and left ventricular function was seen independently from renal function and mineral status [75,76,77,78,79]. Furthermore, we were able to detect FGF-23 within calcified carotid atheromas derived from patients with preserved renal function, and observed a positive association between the FGF-23 serum concentration and the degree of calcification [80].…”

“…Several previous histological studies support the role of FGF23 in vascular calcification 15) ; serum FGF-23 concentrations were significantly associated with the degree of atheroma calcification 16) , and calcium deposition was correlated with FGF23 immunoreactivity in the coronary artery of the explanted heart 17) . Using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), the potential association between FGF23 and CAC and/or AVC has also been clinically examined [18][19][20] , albeit with inconsistent results. However, the possibility remains that hyperphosphatemia rather than the FGF-23 level is the major factor driving vascular calcification 21) , which may also be indicated by the finding that FGF23 was not associated with arterial calcification and does not promote calcification 22) .…”
