EPO and chronic kidney disease: Our goal was to investigate the normalization of iron handling in a CKD model using the erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) Erythropoietin (EPO) and the hypoxia‐inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (HIF‐PHDi) FG‐4592, on the production of, and outcomes associated with, changes in bioactive, intact FGF23 (“iFGF23”).
