FC 079HIGH SERUM PHOSPHATE, A NOVEL POTENTIAL RISK FACTOR FOR BONE FRAGILITY FRACTURES IN THE COSMOS STUDY

Abstract Background and Aims Bone fragility fractures (bone fractures) are extremely frequent in haemodialysis (HD) patients. Serum phosphate (P) has been suggested as a risk factor for bone fracture, nonetheless, evidence is poor. The aim of this study was to assess the association between incidence of bone fractures and serum phosphate (P), calcium (Ca) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in patients from the COSMOS study. Method COSMOS is an observational, prospective, open cohort study with 3 years of follow-up including 6797 haemodialysis patients from 227 centres randomly selected from 20 European countries. At baseline, demographics, comorbidities, treatments, serum biochemical parameters …

P1394ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PARATHYROID HORMONE AND MORTALITY IN HAEMODIALYSIS: THE DIABETES MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Abstract Background and Aims Diabetes is the most common cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and a relevant risk factor for mortality. The available CKD-MBD guidelines do not make differences between diabetics and non-diabetics regarding the optimal targets of the serum bone and mineral biochemical parameters. Thus, the objective of this analysis of COSMOS was to compare the association between the main serum bone and mineral biochemical parameters (calcium-Ca, phosphorus-P and parathyroid hormone-PTH) and mortality in diabetic and non-diabetic patients in haemodialysis. Method COSMOS is a 3-year, observational, prospective, open-cohort study that includes 6797 patients from 227 d…
