    Author: Tsukamoto Y.
    Journal: Clin Calcium; 2009 Apr; 19(4):479-84. PubMed ID: 19329825.
    Abstract:
    New disease entity "CKD-MBD" was created by the KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcome) at the controversy conference in 2005. This entity accurately reflects a diversity in mineral and bone disorder associated with CKD. According to this new definition, renal osteodystrophy should be used to express only bone lesion associated with CKD.
