About this study

The investigators hypothesize that the chronic kidney disease patients who suffer from vitamin D deficiency will be benefit from given Vitamin D2 because coronary artery calcification and hyperparathyroidism will be improved.

Read the detailed description

We will call for 350 CKD patients (250 CKD3-5stage and 100 CKD5D stage)who suffer from vitamin D deficiency.They will be divided into 2 groups. One group will be given vitamin D and the other will not. They will take coronary artery CT test every year(in 2 years).We will compare the coronary calcification progression between the 2 groups.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the improvement of coronary artery calcification

    We use CT to detect the coronary artery calcification score in the chronic kidney disease patients for 3 times (baseline, 12 month and 24 month). We will compare the 2 arms (treatment or not)to know if there is any difference。

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the improvement of proteinuria

    We detect the microalbuminuria in the chronic kidney disease patients for 5 times (baseline, 6 month,12 month 18month and 24 month). We will compare the 2 arms (treatment or not)to know if there is any difference。

    Measured: 2 years
