Data are expressed as mean ± S.D. or median [interquartile range]. Superscripts “a”, “b”, and “w” stand for the comparison between CRIC and converted CKD-JAC data, the comparison between random samples of CRIC and original CKD-JAC data, and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test, respectively; t-test was performed unless otherwise noted. Abbreviations: PTH, parathyroid hormone; 25OHD, 25-hydroxyvitamin D; FGF23, fibroblast growth factor-23.
CKD-JAC data converted to assay types used in CRIC. See Apendix for details
Originally in CRIC: Serum phosphate was measured by phosphomolybdate assay; Total PTH, by immunoradiometric assay; and 25OHD, by liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy.
Originally in CKD-JAC: Serum phosphate was measured by enzymatic assay; Intact PTH, by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay; and 25OHD, by radioimmunoassay.
Measured in random samples (N=1690).
Measured in random samples at the same central laboratory of CKD-JAC (N=1132).
