Baseline s-klotho and FGF23 concentrations were assessed in 2948 LURIC participants referred for coronary angiography and followed for a median of 9.9 years. Adjusted hazard ratios for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the highest versus lowest s-klotho quartile were 1.14 (95% CI 0.94-1.38, p = 0.187) and 1.03 (95% CI 0.80-1.31, p = 0.845). S-klotho does not add predictive value to mortality risk assessment in patients with normal renal function.
