Calcific Uremic Arteriolopathy on Multimodal Combination Therapy: Still Unmet Goal

Table 2

Comparison of biochemical profile of subjects with calciphylaxis at diagnosis and within 6 months after the diagnosis.

Test	At diagnosis	3 to 6 months after diagnosis	𝑃 value
Calcium (mmol/L)	2.3±0.2	2.4±0.2	NS
Phosphate (mmol/L)	2.0±0.8	1.8±1.0	NS
Ca×P (mmol/L)	4.5±1.0	4.2±1.8	NS
PTH (pmol/L)	80±53	21±17	<0.05
Albumin (g/L)	28±7	26±9	NS

SD: standard deviation, Ca×P: calcium-phosphate product, PTH: parathyroid hormone, NS: not significant.
