    Distribution of calcium levels by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in the Kidney Early Evaluation Program. Pearson correlation coefficient for eGFR and calcium, 0.0859; P < 0.001 for all. T

    Distribution of calcium levels by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in the Kidney Early Evaluation Program. Pearson correlation coefficient for eGFR and calcium, 0.0859; P < 0.001 for all. To convert eGFR in mL/min/1.73 m2 to mL/s/1.73 m2, multiply by 0.01667; calcium in mg/dL to mmol/L, multiply by 02495.

    Distribution of phosphorus levels by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in the Kidney Early Evaluation Program. Pearson correlation coefficient for eGFR and phosphorus, −0.1399; P < 0.001. To convert eGFR in mL/min/1.73 m2 to mL/s/1.73 m2, multiply by 0.01667; phosphorus in mg/dL to mmol/L, multiply by 0.3229.

    Distribution of parathyroid hormone levels by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in the Kidney Early Evaluation Program. Pearson correlation coefficient for eGFR and intact parathyroid hormone, −0.3773; P < 0.001. To convert eGFR in mL/min/1.73 m2 to mL/s/1.73 m2, multiply by 0.01667; parathyroid hormone in pg/mL and ng/L are equivalent.
