The predictive value of serum alkaline phosphatase combined with parathyroid hormone in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients / 中华内科杂志

ABSTRACT

To analyze the predictive value of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in maintaining hemodialysis (MHD) patients. A total of 224 MHD patients were prospectively investigated and followed up for 2 years. Serum iPTH levels were not associated with all-cause death and cardiovascular death ( HR=1.001, 95% CI 1.000-1.004, P=0.048) . The level of serum ALP was associated with cardiovascular death ( HR=1.002, 95% CI 1.000-1.004, P=0.033) . ALP≥106 IU/L was an independent risk factor for cardiovascular death in MHD patients ( P<0.05) . The joint variable was correlated with mortality in MHD patients ( HR=1.002, 95% CI 1.000~1.004, P=0.033) , that equal or over 37.28 was an independent risk factor for mortality ( P<0.05).
