BackgroundLow serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been implicated as a primary biochemical marker of adynamic bone disease in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who undergo maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) treatment. We hypothesized that the malnutrition-inflammation complex is associated with low PTH levels in these patients and confounds the PTH-survival association.MethodsWe examined 748 stable MHD outpatients in southern California and followed them for up to 5 years (October 2001-December 2006).ResultsIn 748 MHD patients, serum PTH <150pg/mL was more prevalent among non-blacks and diabetics. There was no association between serum PTH and coronary artery calcification score, bone mineral density, or dietary protein or calori...
