Nephrology, Dialysis and Transplantation
Background. Hepcidin is associated with iron-restricted erythropoiesis. A previous cross-sectional study showed that serum hepcidin-25 levels are negatively associated with the hemoglobin concentration in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with sufficient iron stores. This longitudinal study aimed at ascertaining the association between hepcidin-25 levels and the progression of renal anemia. Methods. We selected 335 non-dialysis CKD patients who showed hemoglobin concentrations
