Abstract
⺠Fibroblast growth factor 23 is an important of phosphate and calcium metabolism. ⺠C-terminal FGF23 is a 71 amino acids peptide. ⺠We have evaluated Ct-FGF23 in patients presenting systolic heart failure. ⺠Ct-FGF23 levels were markedly increased in HF patients. ⺠Ct-FGF23 is the strongest predictor of long term CV death.
