Chronic Kidney Disease: MOA Animation

This MoA animation explains how Chronic Kidney Disease can cause Hyperphosphataemia'

In people with advanced chronic kidney disease, particularly those on dialysis, the kidneys are unable to remove sufficient phosphate, leading to hyperphosphataemia a condition associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
