  • Title: Vascular calcification: Hardening of the evidence.
    Author: Moe SM.
    Journal: Kidney Int; 2006 Nov; 70(9):1535-7. PubMed ID: 17051256.
    Abstract:
    In the past several years, basic-science studies have shown that vascular calcification is an active, cell-mediated process. It is increased in the uremic milieu and with hyperphosphatemia and therefore should be preventable. Additional advances in imaging techniques have facilitated the diagnosis of arterial calcification, a critical initial step in the translation of this knowledge to patient care.
