Change in 25(OH)Vitamin D
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Reduction in parathyroid hormone levels<br> 2. Improvements in serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase<br> 3. Improvement in estimated glomerular filtration rate, albuminuria and proteinuria, tubular phosphate reabsorption and other markers of renal tubular dysfunction<br> 4.
