The effects of long-term disturbance of the mineral metabolism on patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are unclear. We investigated whether the longitudinal Ca-P (joint calcium and phosphorus) trajectories are associated with incident end-stage renal disease (ESRD), acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and all-cause mortality in patients with CKD. We conducted a prospective cohort study by using data from a 13-year multidisciplinary pre-ESRD care registry. The final study population consisted of 4,237 CKD patients aged 20–90 years with data gathered from 2003 to 2015. Individuals’ Ca-P trajectories were defined using group-based multi-trajectory modeling into three distinct patterns: reference, moderately abnormal, and severely abnormal. Times to ESRD, ACS, and death were analyzed using multiple Cox regression. Compared with those with a “reference” Ca-P trajectory, the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) (95% confidence interval [CI]) for incidental ESRD were 5.92 (4.71–7.44) and 15.20 (11.85–19.50) for “moderately abnormal” and “severely abnormal” Ca-P trajectories, respectively. The corresponding aHRs for ACS were 1.94 (1.49–2.52) and 3.18 (2.30–4.39), and for all-cause mortality, they were 1.88 (1.64–2.16) and 2.46 (2.05–2.96) for “moderately abnormal” and “severely abnormal” Ca-P trajectories, respectively. For outcomes of progression to ESRD, the detrimental effects of abnormal Ca-P trajectories were more substantial in patients with CKD stage 3 than those with CKD stage 4 or 5 ( p -value for interaction < 0.001). Future studies should validate reliable longitudinal cut-offs of serum phosphorus and consider the “lowering phosphorus— the lower the better, the earlier the better” approach to phosphorus control in CKD.
