Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyFibroblast growth factor 23 and incident CKD in type 2 diabetes.

Whether high fibroblast growth factor 23 levels also predict incident CKD is uncertain. ⋯ Higher fibroblast growth factor 23 levels are not independently associated with higher risk of incident CKD in patients with type 2 diabetes.
