An endemic belt of Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown origin (CKDu) has been recently reported from central India from our Centre. The prevalence and characteristics of Mineral Bone Disease (MBD) in patients with CKDu have not been described. This study aims to find out the prevalence and characteristics of MBD in patients of CKDu in Central India and compare it with the age, sex, and stage of CKD matched CKD controls of known aetiology.
