In this study, we compared the concentration of lactoferrin in the blood and indicators of phosphorus-calcium metabolism in 40 patients with chronic kidney disease and 10 healthy volunteers. The aim of the study was to identify the dependence of the level of lactoferrin on the indicators of phosphorus-calcium metabolism in chronic kidney disease. During the study, we revealed a statistically significant difference in comparing the level of lactoferrin, phosphorus in a group of patients with chronic kidney disease of immune nature with a group of patients with chronic kidney disease of non-immune nature. It was also found that the level of lactoferrin and phosphorus in patients with chronic kidney disease of immune nature is significantly lower than in patients with chronic kidney disease of non-immune nature.
