Abstract
Tremendous progress has been made over recent years in the understanding of the mechanisms regulating calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone homeostasis in the normal human body and in patients with different degrees of renal failure. In addition, some of these findings have been translated into clinical practice, be it diagnostic or therapeutic.
