Zhou Y, Zhang S, Chen Z, Zhang X, Feng Y, Xu R. The association between serum phosphate and length of hospital stay and all-cause mortality in adult patients: a cross-sectional study. Nutr J 2024; 23:81. [PMID: 39026252 PMCID: PMC11256428 DOI: 10.1186/s12937-024-00982-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Data is limited on the prevalence of hypophosphatemia in general hospitalized patients, and its association with length of hospital stay (LOS) and mortality remained unclear. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of admission phosphate abnormality and the association between serum phosphate level and length of hospital stay and all-cause mortality in adult patients. METHODS This was a multi-center retrospective study based on real-world data. Participants were classified into five groups according to serum phosphate level (inorganic phosphorus, iP) within 48 h after admission: G1, iP < 0.64 mmol/L; G2, iP 0.64-0.8 mmol/L; G3, iP 0.8-1.16 mmol/L; G4, iP 1.16-1.45 mmol/L; and G5, iP ≥ 1.45 mmol/L, respectively. Both LOS and in-hospital mortality were considered as outcomes. Clinical information, including age, sex, primary diagnosis, co-morbidity, and phosphate-metabolism related parameters, were also abstracted from medical records. RESULTS A total number of 23,479 adult patients (14,073 males and 9,406 females, aged 57.7 ± 16.8 y) were included in the study. The prevalence of hypophosphatemia was 4.74%. An "L-shaped" non-linear association was determined between serum phosphate level and LOS and the inflection point was 1.16 mmol/L in serum phosphate level. Compared with patients in G4, patients in G1, G2 or G3 were significantly associated with longer LOS after full adjustment of covariates. Each 0.1 mmol/L decrease in serum phosphate level to the left side of the inflection point led to 0.64 days increase in LOS [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.46, 0.81; p for trend < 0.001]. But there was no association between serum phosphate and LOS where serum levels of phosphate ≥ 1.16 mmol/L. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that adjusted all-cause in-hospital mortality was 3.08-fold greater in patients in G1 than those in G4 (95% CI: 1.52, 6.25; p for trend = 0.001). Similarly, no significant association with either LOS or mortality were found in patients in G5, comparing with G4. CONCLUSIONS Hypophosphatemia, but not hyperphosphatemia, was associated with LOS and all-cause mortality in adult inpatients. It is meaningful to monitor serum levels of phosphate to facilitate early diagnosis and intervention.

Abstract
Long-term hypophosphatemia, defined by serum phosphorus (P) levels <2.5mg/dL, impairs the development and quality of mineralized tissue of the skeletal, dental, and auditory systems. P homeostasis depends mainly on intestinal absorption and renal excretion. Hypophosphatemia may be due to the redistribution of P to the intracellular space, increased renal losses, or decreased intestinal absorption. Hypophosphatemia can be categorized as acute or chronic, depending on the time course. Most cases, either acute or chronic, are due to acquired causes. However, some chronic cases may have a genetic origin. Accurate and early diagnosis, followed by adequate treatment, is essential to limit its negative effects on the body.

Abstract
Phosphate is a key component of mineralized tissues and is also part of many organic compounds. Phosphorus homeostasis depends especially upon intestinal absorption, and renal excretion, which are regulated by various hormones, such as PTH, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and fibroblast growth factor 23. In this review we provide an update of several genetic disorders that affect phosphate transporters through cell membranes or the phosphate-regulating hormones, and, consequently, result in hypophosphatemia.

Struppe A, Schanda JE, Baierl A, Watzl P, Muschitz C. Impact of Intravenous Iron Substitution on Serum Phosphate Levels and Bone Turnover Markers-An Open-Label Pilot Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:2693. [PMID: 37375595 DOI: 10.3390/nu15122693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The association between intravenous iron substitution therapy and hypophosphatemia was previously reported in patients with iron deficiency anemia. However, the extent of hypophosphatemia is thought to depend on the type of iron supplementation. We hypothesized that the intravenous application of ferric carboxymaltose and iron sucrose leads to a different longitudinal adaptation in serum phosphate levels. In this open-label pilot study, a total of 20 patients with inflammatory bowel diseases or iron deficiency anemia were randomly assigned to one of two study groups (group 1: ferric carboxymaltose, n = 10; group 2: iron sucrose, n = 10). Serum values were controlled before iron substitution therapy, as well as 2, 4, and 12 weeks after the last drug administration. The primary objective of the study was the longitudinal evaluation of serum phosphate levels after iron substitution therapy with ferric carboxymaltose and iron sucrose. The secondary objective was the longitudinal investigation of calcium, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), intact parathyroid hormone, procollagen type 1 amino-terminal propeptide (P1NP), beta-CrossLaps (CTX), hemoglobin (Hb), iron, ferritin, and transferrin saturation levels. Two weeks after drug administration, phosphate levels were significantly lower (p < 0.001) in group 1 and ferritin levels were significantly higher (p < 0.001) in group 1. Phosphate levels (0.8-1.45 mmol/L) were below the therapeutic threshold and ferritin levels (10-200 ng/mL for women and 30-300 ng/mL for men) were above the therapeutic threshold in group 1. P1NP (15-59 µg/L) and CTX (<0.57 ng/mL) levels were above the therapeutic threshold in group 2. Four weeks after drug administration, significant differences were still observed between both study groups for phosphate (p = 0.043) and ferritin (p = 0.0009). All serum values except for Hb were within the therapeutic thresholds. Twelve weeks after drug administration, no differences were observed in all serum values between both study groups. Hb values were within the therapeutic threshold in both study groups. Serum 25(OH)D levels did not differ between both study groups throughout the whole study period and remained within the therapeutic threshold.

ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EARLY SERUM PHOSPHATE LEVELS AND SHORT-TERM MORTALITY IN SEPTIC PATIENTS: A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY BASED ON MIMIC-IV. Shock 2023; 59:838-845. [PMID: 36947698 PMCID: PMC10227928 DOI: 10.1097/shk.0000000000002119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/24/2023]
Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of the study is to explore the impact of early serum phosphate levels on the prognosis of critically ill patients with sepsis. Methods: In this retrospective large cohort study, data of patients with sepsis were obtained from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database. Patients were retrospectively divided into a control group and three study groups according to their daily serum phosphate levels within 2 days of intensive care unit (ICU) admission. A Cox regression model was used to evaluate the association between serum phosphate levels and 28-day morbidity. Results: This study included 9,691 patients diagnosed with sepsis. During the first 2 days of ICU admission, patients with hyperphosphatemia in either of the 2 days had higher 28-day mortality, while patients in the hypophosphatemia group had lower 28-day mortality (first day, 32.9% vs. 16.3%; second day, 36.3% vs. 14.7%). After adjusting for potential confounders, hyperphosphatemia was significantly associated with 28-day mortality; however, only hypophosphatemia on the second day was independently associated with reduced 28-day mortality. After stratification in the hypophosphatemia group, subgroup analysis showed that only the association between the mild hypophosphatemia group and 28-day mortality reached statistical significance (hazard ratio = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.65-0.89, P = 0.001). Conclusions: Mild hypophosphatemia might improve the short-term prognosis of patients with sepsis, and hyperphosphatemia is an independent risk factor for the outcomes of septic patients. After ICU admission, the serum phosphate levels on the second day had a better independent correlation with 28-day mortality, which prompted us to reconsider the optimal timing of phosphate evaluation.

Serum Nutritional Biomarkers and All-Cause and Cause-Specific Mortality in U.S. Adults with Metabolic Syndrome: The Results from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2001-2006. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15030553. [PMID: 36771258 PMCID: PMC9918903 DOI: 10.3390/nu15030553] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited research on the associations between serum nutritional biomarkers and mortality risk in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Existing studies merely investigated the single-biomarker effect. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the combined effect of nutritional biomarker mixtures and mortality risk using the Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) model in patients with MetS. METHODS We included the MetS patients, defined according to the 2018 Guideline on the Management of Blood Cholesterol from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2001-2006. A total of 20 serum nutritional biomarkers were measured and evaluated in this study. The Cox proportional hazard model and restricted cubic spline models were used to evaluate the individual linear and non-linear association of 20 nutritional biomarkers with mortality risk. Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) was used to assess the associations between mixture of nutritional biomarkers and mortality risk. RESULTS A total of 1455 MetS patients had a median age of 50 years (range: 20-85). During a median of 17.1-year follow-up, 453 (24.72%) died: 146 (7.20%) caused by CVD and 87 (5.26%) by cancer. Non-linear and linear analyses indicated that, in total, eight individual biomarkers (α-carotene, β-carotene, bicarbonate, lutein/zeaxanthin, lycopene, potassium, protein, and vitamin A) were significantly associated with all-cause mortality (all p-values < 0.05). Results from BKMR showed an association between the low levels of the mixture of nutritional biomarkers and high risk of all-cause mortality with the estimated effects ranging from 0.04 to 0.14 (referent: medians). α-Carotene (PIP = 0.971) and potassium (PIP = 0.796) were the primary contributors to the combined effect of the biomarker mixture. The nutritional mixture levels were found to be negatively associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality and positively associated with the risk of cancer mortality. After it was stratified by nutrients, the mixture of vitamins showed a negative association with all-cause and CVD mortality, whereas the mixture of mineral-related biomarkers was positively associated with all-cause and cancer mortality. CONCLUSION Our findings support the evidence that nutritional status was associated with long-term health outcomes in MetS patients. It is necessary for MetS patients to be concerned with certain nutritional status (i.e., vitamins and mineral elements).

Acute Kidney Injury Is Associated with Higher Serum Cys-C and NGAL Concentrations, and Risk of Mortality in Premature Calves with Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Animals (Basel) 2023; 13:ani13020232.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to establish the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) and evaluate the usefulness of kidney-specific biomarkers in diagnosing AKI in premature calves with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Ten-term healthy and 70 premature calves with RDS were enrolled. Clinical examination, blood gases, and chemical analysis were performed at admission and 72 h. Serum concentrations of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cre), phosphorus (P), cystatin-C (Cys-C), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), uromodulin (UMOD), and liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) were measured to evaluate kidney injury. Our findings showed that 38.5% of the premature calves with RDS developed AKI. The RDS-AKI group had a 4-fold higher mortality risk than the RDS-non-AKI group. Cys-C, with 90% and 89% specificity, and NGAL, with 100% sensitivity and 85% specificity, were the most reliable biomarkers to determine AKI in premature calves. The usefulness of any biomarker to predict mortality was not found to be convincing. In conclusion, AKI can develop as a consequence of hypoxia in premature calves and may increase the risk of mortality. In addition, serum Cys-C and NGAL concentrations may be useful in the diagnosis of AKI in premature calves with RDS.

Abstract
Among bone-material qualities, mineralization is pivotal in conferring stiffness and toughness to the bone. Osteomalacia, a disease ensuing from inadequate mineralization of the skeleton, is caused by different processes leading to decreased available mineral (calcium and/or phosphate) or enzymatic alterations. Vitamin D deficiency, which remains the major cause of altered mineralization leading to inadequate intestinal calcium and phosphate absorption, may be also associated with other conditions primarily responsible for abnormal mineralization. Given the reality of widespread vitamin D inadequacy, a full biochemical assessment of mineral metabolism is always necessary to rule out or confirm other conditions. Both too-high or too-low serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels are important for diagnosis. Osteomalacic syndrome is reversible, at least in part, by specific treatment. Osteomalacia and bone mineralization themselves constitute largely unexplored fields of research. The true prevalence of the different forms of osteomalacia and the recovery after proper therapy have yet to be determined in the real world. Although non-invasive techniques to assess bone mineralization are not available in clinical practice, the systematic assessment of bone quality could help in refining the diagnosis and guiding the treatment. This review summarizes what is known of osteomalacia recent therapeutic developments and highlights the future issues of research in this field.

Abstract
Phosphorus, predominantly in the form of inorganic phosphate PO4-3, has many essential physiological functions. In the skeleton, phosphate and calcium form the mineral component and phosphate is also essential in regulating function of skeletal cells. Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of phosphate homeostasis since the recognition of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) as a bone-derived phosphaturic hormone. This second part of a two-part review of disorders of phosphate homeostasis in children covers hypophosphatemic and hyperphosphatemic disorders that are of interest to the pediatric radiologist, emphasizing, but not limited to, those related to abnormalities of FGF23 signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The objective of this project was to adapt to our setting following a systematic process based on the ADAPTE method the first clinical practice guidelines on X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) that were published in 2019. MATERIALS AND METHODS The adaptation of the guidelines to our application and implementation setting was carried out in three phases -start-up, adaptation, and finalization- by a group of experts involved in the management of patients with XLH. RESULTS Following the original guide, the recommendations agreed by the group that elaborated the guidelines for diagnosis, frequency and scope of visits and specific follow-up in children and adults are presented. On the other hand, recommendations are established for both age groups with conventional treatment, as well as with burosumab in children or adults and those related to the controversial use of growth hormone in children. Suggestions are also proposed regarding the monitoring and management of musculoskeletal disorders and orthopedic treatment in children, dental health and hearing, and neurosurgical complications. Finally, a series of questions and areas are raised in order to deepen the possible future investigation. CONCLUSIONS These recommendations constitute the systematic adaptation to our setting of the first evidence-based clinical practice guide for the diagnosis and management of XLH and we hope that they can contribute to the adequate management of the disease.

Abstract
Objective This study was intended to explore the relationship between level of serum phosphate and prognosis in septic patients. Methods Data were obtained from the public database, which were divided into 2 subgroups according to whether they were complicated with chronic kidney disease. Initial values of serum phosphate were extracted from patients on admission to hospital. Propensity score-matched analysis was performed. The relationship between hypophosphatemia, hyperphosphatemia and the severity of the disease in septic patients was explored separately. The lowess smoothing technique and the Kaplan-Meier method were utilized for a preliminary analysis of serum phosphate levels in relation to in-hospital mortality and 28-day survival. The initial values of serum phosphate were graded as level 1 (<1.5 mg/dL), level 2 (1.5-2.7 mg/dL), level 3 (2.7-4.5 mg/dL), level 4 (4.5-5.5 mg/dL), level 5 (5.5-6.5 mg/dL), level 6 (6.5-7.5 mg/dL) and level 7 (> 7.5 mg/dL). Multivariate logistic regression and cox regression was used to analyse the relationship between serum phosphate levels and mortality. Results There were 4059 cases (17.4%) combined with chronic kidney disease, including 419 cases (10.3%) with hypophosphatemia and 1091 cases (26.8%) with hyperphosphatemia. There were 19224 cases (82.6%) not combined with chronic kidney disease, including 3769 cases (19.6%) hypophosphatemia and 2158 cases (11.2%) hyperphosphatemia. After propensity score-matched, in-hospital mortality, 28-day mortality, risk of septic shock was significantly higher in the 2 subgroups of hypophosphatemia patients than in normophosphatemia patients. In-hospital mortality, 28-day mortality, risk of septic shock, occurrence of renal replacement therapy, occurrence of acute renal failure, and maximum clinical score were all significantly higher in the 2 subgroups of patients with hyperphosphatemia than in patients with normophosphatemia. Multivariate logistic regression was consistent with cox regression results. In septic patients without chronic kidney disease, hypophosphatemia was an independent risk factor for death. When serum phosphate was lower, the risk of death was higher. In all septic patients, hyperphosphatemia was an independent risk factor for death. When serum phosphate was higher, the risk of death was greater. Conclusions Both hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemia are associated with increased mortality in septic patients and are independent risk factors for death.

Abstract
Phosphate homeostasis is dependent on the interaction and coordination of four main organ systems: thyroid/parathyroids, gastrointestinal tract, bone and kidneys, and three key hormonal regulators, 1,25-hydroxyvitamin D3, parathyroid hormone and FGF23 with its co- factor klotho. Phosphorus is a critical nutritional element for normal cellular function, but in excess can be toxic to tissues, particularly the vasculature. As phosphate, it also has an important interaction and inter-dependence with calcium and calcium homeostasis sharing some of the same controlling hormones, although this is not covered in our article. We have chosen to provide a current overview of phosphate homeostasis only, focusing on the role of two major organ systems, the gastrointestinal tract and kidneys, and their contribution to the control of phosphate balance. We describe in some detail the mechanisms of intestinal and renal phosphate transport, and compare and contrast their regulation. We also consider a significant example of phosphate imbalance, with phosphate retention, which is chronic kidney disease; why consequent hyperphosphatemia is important, and some of the newer means of managing it.

Abstract
Introduction Serum phosphate level is often deranged during critical illness. Hyperphosphatemia, as a marker of disease severity, attracts more and more attention. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of hyperphosphatemia on clinical outcomes in critically ill patients. Methods We searched for relevant studies in PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane database up to Jan 10, 2022. Two authors independently screened studies, extracted data, and assessed the study quality. Meta-analyses were performed to determine hyperphosphatemia prevalence and evaluate its relationship with prognosis and important clinical outcomes. We also conducted subgroup analysis and sensitivity analyses to explore the sources of heterogeneity. Results Ten studies with 60,358 patients met the inclusion criteria. These studies were moderate to high quality. The median prevalence of hyperphosphatemia was 30% (range from 5.6 to 45%). Patients with hyperphosphatemia had a significantly higher risk of all-cause mortality than those without (OR 2.85; 95% CI, 2.35 to 3.38, P < 0.0001). Subgroup analyses, sensitivity analyses, and regression analyses further confirmed these results. In addition, patients with hyperphosphatemia required more CRRT (OR 4.96; 95% CI, 2.43 to 10.2, P < 0.0001) but not significantly increased duration of mechanical ventilation (mean difference, MD 0.13, 95% CI −0.04 to 0.30; P = 0.138), length of stay in intensive care unit (ICU) (SMD 0.164 day, 95% CI −0.007 to 0.335; P = 0.06), and length of stay in hospital (SMD 0.005 day, 95% CI −0.74 to 0.75; P = 0.99). Conclusions Our results indicated that hyperphosphatemia was associated with all-cause mortality in critically ill patients. However, due to the retrospective design of the included studies, more prospective, well-designed research is required in the future.

Abstract
There is a growing interest in arterial and heart valve calcifications, as these contribute to cardiovascular outcome, and are leading predictors of cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Cardiovascular calcifications are often considered as one disease, but, in effect, they represent multifaced disorders, occurring in different milieus and biological phenotypes, following different pathways. Herein, we explore each different molecular process, its relative link with the specific clinical condition, and the current therapeutic approaches to counteract calcifications. Thus, first, we explore the peculiarities between vascular and valvular calcium deposition, as this occurs in different tissues, responds differently to shear stress, has specific etiology and time courses to calcification. Then, we differentiate the mechanisms and pathways leading to hyperphosphatemic calcification, typical of the media layer of the vessel and mainly related to chronic kidney diseases, to those of inflammation, typical of the intima vascular calcification, which predominantly occur in atherosclerotic vascular diseases. Finally, we examine calcifications secondary to rheumatic valve disease or other bacterial lesions and those occurring in autoimmune diseases. The underlying clinical conditions of each of the biological calcification phenotypes and the specific opportunities of therapeutic intervention are also considered and discussed.

Abstract
Because of their rarity, diseases characterized by chronic hypophosphatemia can be underrecognized and suboptimally managed, resulting in poor clinical outcomes. Moreover, serum phosphate may not be measured routinely in primary care practice. Authors participated in several working sessions to advance the understanding of phosphate homeostasis and the causes, consequences, and clinical implications of chronic hypophosphatemia. Phosphate levels are regulated from birth to adulthood. Dysregulation of phosphate homeostasis can result in hypophosphatemia, which becomes chronic if phosphate levels cannot be normalized. Chronic hypophosphatemia may be underrecognized as serum phosphate measurement is not always part of routine analysis in the primary care setting and results might be misinterpreted, for instance, due to age-specific differences not being accounted for and circadian variations. Clinical consequences of chronic hypophosphatemia involve disordered endocrine regulation, affect multiple organ systems, and vary depending on patient age and the underlying disorder. Signs and symptoms of chronic hypophosphatemic diseases that manifest during childhood or adolescence persist into adulthood if the disease is inadequately managed, resulting in an accumulation of clinical deficits and a progressive, debilitating impact on quality of life. Early identification and diagnosis of patients with chronic hypophosphatemia is crucial, and clinical management should be started as soon as possible to maximize the likelihood of improving health outcomes. Furthermore, in the absence of a universally accepted description for "chronic hypophosphatemia," a definition is proposed here that aims to raise awareness of these diseases, facilitate diagnosis, and guide optimal phosphate management strategies by improving monitoring and assessment of patient response to treatment. © 2021 The Authors.

Abstract
UNLABELLED X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a lifelong condition. Despite the mounting clinical evidence highlighting the long-term multi-organ sequelae of chronic phosphate wasting and consequent hypophosphatemia over the lifetime and the morbidities associated with adult age, XLH is still perceived as a paediatric disease. INTRODUCTION Children who have XLH need to transition from paediatric to adult healthcare as young adults. While there is general agreement that all affected children should be treated (if the administration and tolerability of therapy can be adequately monitored), there is a lack of consensus regarding therapy in adults. METHODS To provide guidance in both diagnosis and treatment of adult XLH patients and promote better provision of care for this potentially underserved group of patients, we review the available clinical evidence and discuss the current challenges underlying the transition from childhood to adulthood care to develop appropriate management and follow-up patterns in adult XLH patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Such a multi-systemic lifelong disease would demand that the multidisciplinary approach, successfully experienced in children, could be transitioned to adulthood care with an integration of specialized sub-disciplines to efficiently control musculoskeletal symptoms while optimizing patients' QoL. Overall, it would be desirable that transition to adulthood care could be a responsibility shared by the paediatric and adult XLH teams. Pharmacological management should require an adequate balance between the benefits derived from the treatment itself with complicated and long-term monitoring and the potential risks, as they may differ across age strata.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This research aims to explore the impact of serum phosphate on the mortality of critically ill patients. DESIGN A retrospective large cohort study. SETTING Our data were extracted from a publicly accessible database named 'Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care Database III'. PARTICIPANTS 27 131 patients were included by clear definitions of selection and exclusion criteria. INTERVENTIONS We used initial phosphate at admission as a design variable. Patients were divided into six groups with different serum phosphate levels and five groups at different intensive care unit (ICU) departments. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOMES 28-day and 90-day mortality were primary outcomes. All-cause mortality and length of stay ICU were secondary outcomes. RESULTS Patients with very-high-normal serum phosphate, hypophosphataemia and hyperphosphataemia had worse outcomes. And the relationship between serum phosphate and the probability of 28-day or 90-day mortality had a linear relationship. After adjustment for potential confounders, hypophosphataemia and hyperphosphataemia were not significantly associated with 28-day or 90-day mortality. Nevertheless, at the medical ICU, hyperphosphataemia was associated with increased 28-day or 90-day mortality (HR=0.64, 95% CI 0.48 to 0.84, p=0.0017; HR=0.72, 95% CI 0.57 to 0.91, p=0.0067, respectively), using group 2 (≥2.5 mg/dL and <3.0 mg/dL) as the reference group. CONCLUSIONS Patients with very-high-normal serum phosphate also had worse outcomes, it might be necessary to re-evaluate the definitions of the normal reference range for serum phosphate. Hypophosphataemia and hyperphosphataemia are not the independent risk factors of 28-day or 90-day ICU mortality, which leads us to consider whether phosphate monitoring is not a necessary measure in critically ill patients. But hyperphosphataemia was associated with increased 28-day or 90-day mortality at the medical ICU, which emphasises the potential importance of early diagnosis and treatment of hyperphosphataemia for the patients who were admitted to the medical ICU.

Abstract
KEY POINTS Intestinal absorption of phosphate proceeds via an active/transcellular route mostly mediated by NaPi-IIb/Slc34a2 and a poorly characterized passive/paracellular pathway. Intestinal phosphate absorption and expression of NaPi-IIb are stimulated by 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 but whether NaPi-IIb is the only target under hormonal control remains unknown. We report that administration of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 to wild-type mice resulted in the expected increase in active transport of phosphate in jejunum, without changing paracellular fluxes. Instead, the same treatment failed to alter phosphate transport in intestinal-depleted Slc34a2-deficient mice. In both genotypes, 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 induced similar hyperphosphaturic responses and changes in the plasma levels of FGF23 and PTH. While urinary phosphate loss induced by administration of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 did not alter plasma phosphate, further studies should investigate whether chronic administration would lead to phosphate imbalance in mice with reduced active intestinal absorption. ABSTRACT Intestinal absorption of phosphate is stimulated by 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3. At least two distinct mechanisms underlie phosphate absorption in the gut, an active transcellular transport requiring the Na+ /phosphate cotransporter NaPi-IIb/Slc34a2, and a poorly characterized paracellular passive pathway. 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 stimulates NaPi-IIb expression and function, and loss of NaPi-IIb reduces intestinal phosphate absorption. However, it is remains unknown whether NaPi-IIb is the only target for hormonal regulation by 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 . Here we compared the effects of intraperitoneal administration of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 (2 days, once per day) in wild-type and intestinal-specific Slc34a2-deficient mice, and analysed trans- vs. paracellular routes of phosphate absorption. We found that treatment stimulated active transport of phosphate only in jejunum of wild-type mice, though NaPi-IIb protein expression was upregulated in jejunum and ileum. In contrast, 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 administration had no effect in Slc34a2-deficient mice, suggesting that the hormone specifically regulates NaPi-IIb expression. In both groups, 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 elicited the expected increase of plasma fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and reduction of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Treatment resulted in hyperphosphaturia (and hypercalciuria) in both genotypes, though mice remained normophosphataemic. While increased intestinal absorption and higher FGF23 can trigger the hyperphosphaturic response in wild types, only higher FGF23 can explain the renal response in Slc34a2-deficient mice. Thus, 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 stimulates intestinal phosphate absorption by acting on the active transcellular pathway mostly mediated by NaPi-IIb while the paracellular pathway appears not to be affected.

Abstract
Phosphorus, often in the form of inorganic phosphate (Pi), is critical to cellular function on many levels; it is required as an integral component of kinase signaling, in the formation and function of DNA and lipids, and energy metabolism in the form of ATP. Accordingly, crucial aspects of cell mitosis - such as DNA synthesis and ATP energy generation - elevate the cellular requirement for Pi, with rapidly dividing cells consuming increased levels. Mechanisms to sense, respond, acquire, accumulate, and potentially seek Pi have evolved to support highly proliferative cellular states such as injury and malignant transformation. As such, manipulating Pi availability to target rapidly dividing cells presents a novel strategy to reduce or prevent unrestrained cell growth. Currently, limited knowledge exists regarding how modulating Pi consumption by pre-cancerous cells might influence the initiation of aberrant growth during malignant transformation, and if reducing the bioavailability or suppressing Pi consumption by malignant cells could alter tumorigenesis. The concept of targeting Pi-regulated pathways and/or consumption by pre-cancerous or tumor cells represents a novel approach to cancer prevention and control, although current data remains insufficient as to rigorously assess the therapeutic value and physiological relevance of this strategy. With this review, we present a critical evaluation of the paradox of how an element critical to essential cellular functions can, when available in excess, influence and promote a cancer phenotype. Further, we conjecture how Pi manipulation could be utilized as a therapeutic intervention, either systemically or at the cell level, to ultimately suppress or treat cancer initiation and/or progression.
