isn't calculating renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate a much more accurate test than calculating urine phosphate to creatinine ratio? have a look at this: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10672378 you should obtain a copy of this excellent paper upon request to the corresponding author regards, Dr Joseph Watine, PH, AIHP, PharmD, AAHU, EurClinChem Laboratoire de Biologie Polyvalente Centre Hospitalier La Chartreuse Avenue Caylet 12200 Villefranche-de-Rouergue France Date: Thu, 15 Nov 2012 09:28:20 +1300 From: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: urine calcium and phosphate to creatinine ratios To: [log in to unmask] RE: urine calcium and phosphate to creatinine ratios Hi Peader See www.chl.co.nz for details. cheers Trevor "Come on Manchester get in behind global warming and grow your own bananas" Trevor Walmsley, Senior Scientific Officer (www.hospitalscientists.org.nz) Canterbury Health Labs, Christchurch, New Zealand.

I would appreciate if you could send me the reference ranges you use if you report these parameters. I have some information from literature searches but not many actual ranges for adults, and more ambiguity than I would like in what I have found. The source of your range would also be useful. Thank you all in anticipation. best wishes.
