Abstract
This study supports the hypothesized association between disorders of bone metabolism and cardiovascular disease, but it does not address whether increased testing for disorders of bone metabolism will improve outcomes for patients with chronic kidney disease. Nor does our analysis imply that controlling parathyroid hormone will prevent cardiovascular hospitalizations. Future studies should more fully explore those critical clinical questions.
