Mineral and bone disorder after kidney transplantation

Figure 1 Serum calcium (mean ± SD) (A) and serum phosphate (mean ± SD) (B) in chronic kidney disease patients and kidney transplant recipients according to chronic kidney disease stages, intact parathyroid hormone levels [median (interquartile range)] in chronic kidney disease patients and kidney transplant recipients according to chronic kidney disease stages[8] (C). ^aP < 0.05 vs CKD, ^bP < 0.001 vs CKD. CKD: Chronic kidney disease; KT: Kidney transplant.

Figure 2 Total vascular calcification scores of chronic kidney disease stages 5D patients and kidney transplant recipients categorized according to (A) dialysis vintage (B) kidney transplant vintage. Total VC scores are expressed as mean ± SE[60]. ^aP < 0.05 vs CKD. VC: Vascular calcification; KT: Kidney transplant; CKD: Chronic kidney disease.
