Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study parameter is the association between baseline serum calcification propensity and the relative change in the CAC score over a two-year period. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To identify endogenous and exogenous determinants of CAC-score (progression) and calcification propensity information on age, sex, medical history, duration of pre transplantation dialysis, lifestyle factors including detailed nutrition data and physical activity, use of medication, physical data (including blood pressure and body mass index), and biochemical data, including blood and 24-h urine samples will be collected as part of routine TransplantLines procedures. From the samples collected and stored by TransplantLines, we will analyse parameters of vitamin K status (e.g., nonphosphorylated-uncarboxylated [dp-uc] MGP), parameters of mineral metabolism (i.e., serum phosphate, calcium, albumin, magnesium, PTH, and FGF23), lipid profile, renal function and albumin excretion/24h. | — |
