While log FGF23 and FGF23 z-scores were positively associated with LVMI in univariate analyses in CKD patients (β = 1.7, p = 0.01 and β = 1.6, p = 0.02, respectively), the results changed following adjustments (β = 1.3, p = 0.17 and β = 1.8, p = 0.06, respectively). The gene discussed is FGF23; the disease is chronic kidney disease.
