TL;DR: Male gender, high levels of blood urea nitrogen, beta2-microglobulin (beta2MG), hypercalcemia, and hyperphosphatemia were identified as independent risk factors for the development of severe pruritus, whereas a low level of calcium and intact-parathyroid hormone were associated with reduced risk.

Saccharated ferric oxide (SFO)-induced osteomalacia: In vitro inhibition by SFO of bone formation and 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D production in renal tubules
TL;DR: In primary culture of neonatal mouse renal tubules, SFO significantly inhibited PTH-induced production of 1,25-(OH)2D3 at 30 mumol/L, which is attainable in the urine of patients receiving a therapeutic intravenous dose of SFO.

Patients undergoing dialysis therapy for 30 years or more survive with serious osteoarticular disorders
TL;DR: CKD stage 5D patients undergoingdialysis therapy for 30 years or more survive with characteristics of younger age at initiation of dialysis therapy, chronic glomerulonephritis as a primary cause of CKD, and serious complication of osteoarticular disorders.
