Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis (CKD-5D) often develop various complications, one of them is iron deficiency anemia. Iron is needed as a raw material for the formation of red blood cells. Iron deficiency increases levels of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23). In CKD-5D patients, the functional iron deficiency often occurs and FGF23 levels increase. FGF23 levels can be a poor prognosis in CKD-5D. This study aims to find out the correlation between FGF23 with hemoglobin level, serum iron, total iron-binding capacity, and ferritin level in CKD-5D patients with anemia. This study was cross-sectional. Subjects were CKD patients undergoing routine hemodialysis (HD) twice a week at least 3 months, aged >18 years, anemia (hemoglobin levels
