Adjusting phosphate replacement therapy in severe deficiency states monitoring the renal tubular recovery from acquired Fanconi syndrome

Clinical Information
Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test

The tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) is the fraction (or percent) of filtered phosphorus that is reabsorbed by renal tubules. Its measurement is useful when evaluating patients with hypophosphatemia. In general, a reduced TRP in the presence of hypophosphatemia is indicative of a renal defect in phosphate reabsorption.

 

The ratio of the maximum rate of tubular phosphate reabsorption to the glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR) is considered the most convenient way to evaluate renal phosphate transport and is referred to as the theoretical renal phosphate threshold. This corresponds to the theoretic lower limit of plasma phosphate below which all filtered phosphate would be reabsorbed. Although direct measurements of parathyroid hormone, which increases renal phosphate excretion, have replaced much of the utility of TmP/GFR measurements, it may still be useful in assessing renal reabsorption of phosphorus in a variety of pathological conditions associated with hypophosphatemia.

Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

TUBULAR REABSORPTION OF PHOSPHORUS

(Although, tubular reabsorption of phosphorus levels must be interpreted in light of the prevailing plasma phosphorus and glomerular filtration rate.)

 

TUBULAR MAXIMUM PHOSPHORUS REABSORPTION/GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE (TmP/GFR)

2.6-4.4 mg/dL (0.80-1.35 mmol/L)

PHOSPHORUS, Random Urine

No established reference values

 

Random urine phosphorus may be interpreted in conjunction with serum phosphorus, using both values to calculate fractional excretion of phosphorus.

 

The calculation for fractional excretion (FE) of phosphorus (P) is

FE(P)= ([P(urine)XCreat(serum)]/[P(serum)XCreat(urine)]) X 100

Interpretation
Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results

Interpretation of tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) and the maximum rate of TRP to the glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GMR) is dependent upon the clinical situation and should be interpreted in conjunction with the serum phosphorous concentration.

 

TmP/GFR is independent of dietary phosphorus intake, tissue release of phosphorus, and GFR.

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference

Creatinine is performed by the enzymatic method, which is based on the determination of sarcosine from creatinine with the aid of creatininase, creatinase, and sarcosine oxidase. The liberated hydrogen peroxide is measured via a modified Trinder reaction using a colorimetric indicator. Optimization of the buffer system and the colorimetric indicator enables the creatinine concentration to be quantified both precisely and specifically.(Package insert: Creatinine plus ver 2. Roche Diagnostics; V15.0 03/2019)

 

Inorganic phosphate forms an ammonium phosphomolybdate complex with ammonium molybdate in the presence of sulfuric acid. The concentration of phosphomolybdate formed is directly proportional to the inorganic phosphate concentration and is measures photometrically.(Package insert: Phosphate (Inorganic) ver 2. Roche Diagnostics; V11.0 07/2019)
