Relation of calcium-phosphorus product to the severity of aortic stenosis in patients with normal renal function.

Calcium-phosphorus product (CaxP) has been associated with severity of aortic stenosis (AS) in dialysis patients, but it is unknown whether a relation exists in patients with normal renal function. One hundred seven patients with AS and normal serum creatinine were studied to determine whether there was an association between CaxP and AS severity, and it was found that CaxP was inversely related to AS severity, as measured by aortic valve area and transvalvular gradients.
