Summary
The investigators would like to study the role of phosphorus metabolism in the development of certain hormonal problems in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). More specifically, the goals of the research are (1) to understand the cause of hyperparathyroidism - a hormone problem that often develops in patients who have kidney disease and (2) to test whether decreasing phosphorus intake could help improve or prevent hyperparathyroidism.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- We will include stage 3a, 3b and 4 CKD patients, aged 18 years or over with normal serum phosphate levels (≤ 4.6 mg/dl)
Exclusion Criteria
- Patients with rapidly advancing renal failure who thus might develop hyperphosphatemia or end stage renal disease requiring initiation of dialysis during the study period
- Patients expected to require dialysis initiation within the follow up period
- Patients with hyperphosphatemia > 4.6 mg/dl
- Patients with any previous or current treatment with phosphate binders or active vitamin D (doxercalciferol or calcitriol)
- Malnutrition, defined as a serum albumin 100 U/L) or cholestasis (direct bilirubin > 1.0 mg/dl) because this can limit their ability to absorb fat soluble vitamins such as vitamin D
- Anemia, defined as a hematocrit < 27% at the screening visit
- Medical conditions impacting Pi metabolism-primary hyper- or hypoparathyroidism; Patients with previous subtotal parathyroidectomy; gastrointestinal malabsorption disorders such as Crohn's Disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease, or severe liver dysfunction;
- Patients with outpatient counseling by a renal nutritionist within the previous 6 months
- Hospitalization within the previous 4 weeks
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding mothers
- Patients unable to independently provide written informed consent - prisoners, mentally incompetent, minors
