Elevated plasma fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a prognostic marker in chronic kidney disease. Recently, FGF23 was reported to also be a predictive factor in chronic congestive heart failure (HF). To date however, plasma levels in acute decompensated HF (ADHF) have not been reported and myocardial production and distribution of FGF23 in HF is poorly defined. We aimed to determine plasma levels and myocardial production of FGF23 in ADHF.
