Values are presented as medians with 25 and 75 percentiles in brackets, or as means ± SD. iPTH Intact parathyroid hormone, Ca++ Ionized calcium, ALP Alkaline phosphatase 25(OH)D, 25-hydroxyvitamin D; FGF23, fibroblast growth factor 23; u-Ca/cr, urinary calcium-creatinine ratio; PWV, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity; AIx@75, central augmentation index standardized to a heart rate of 75 beats per minute (bpm); UACR, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio. P values represent the probability of a difference between treatments.
