Lanthanum Carbonate Modulates Inflammatory Profile in Hemodialysis Patients: Relationship with Fibroblast Growth Factor-23
Elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is independently associated with increased inflammatory markers in chronic kidney disease. Lanthanum carbonate (LaCa) reduces FGF-23. We studied the effects of LaCa on inflammatory profile of hemodialysis patients, and the relationship with changes in FG...
