This issue of Kidney International includes two important articles about serum phosphorus and its treatment. The article by Cannata-And?a and colleagues describes a rigorous observational study of the association between serum phosphorus level, phosphate binder use, and clinical outcomes including all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. The article by Mehrotra and colleagues addresses the association between serum phosphorus, socioeconomic status, and mortality among participants in the US-based KEEP program.
