Hyperphosphatemia in renal failure.

abstract：BACKGROUND/AIMS:Increasing evidence suggests that clinical signs of periodontal disease are independently associated with renal impairment. However, no studies have examined the possible linkage of kidney disease with serum antibody to oral pathogens. METHODS:The periodontal disease status was assessed in an older com...
