Brief Summary

Persons with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a 3-fold increased risk of bone fracture and a 10-fold increased risk of cardiovascular disease than the general population. These increased risks are related to the disturbances in the mineral metabolism, and this clinical entity is termed Chronic Kidney Disease - Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD). The overall aim of the present project is to explore factors that may predict or associate with the development of bone and cardiovascular disease in patients with CKD and hopefully provide insight into underlying mechanisms and pathophysiological pathways for future treatment and prevention. In a sub study investigators aim to explore the calcium and phosphate balance in patients with CKD and describe how these associate with each other as well as with kidney function (eGFR).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Difference in time to first fracture between patients with normal bone turnover and low bone turnover based on bone turnover markers at baseline

    25 years

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Time to fracture

    25 years

  • Time to cardiovascular event

    25 years

  • Progression in kidney disease

    25 years

  • Time to end-stage kidney disease

    25 years

  • Time to death

    25 years

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

CPH-MBD cohort

Participants will be followed-up for 25 years after inclusion. Bone fractures, cardiovascular events, progression of kidney disease, end-stage kidney disease and death will be collected through linkage with registries during follow-up. There is no intervention in this study.

Detailed dietary assessment

From the CPH-MBD cohort we invite 50 participants to complete a dietary assessment to obtain more accurate information about their calcium and phosphate intake.
