Description
Summary:Background Iron deficiency anemia occurs in most patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (ND-CKD). Previous studies have suggested that intravenous (IV) iron therapy is more effective than oral iron in these patients. Clinical evidence relating the effects of IV iron on renal function is, however, limited. Methods Prospective observational study of adult patients with ND-CKD, anemia, iron deficiency, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)
