Popis: Objective. This study aims to explore the relationships between serum indoxyl sulfate (IS) and Klotho protein levels with vascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3–5. Methods. From December 2021 to January 2023, a total of 108 CKD patients in stages 3–5 were enrolled in this cross-sectional investigation. Demographic information and routine clinical biochemistry test results were gathered. Serum levels of IS and Klotho were quantified through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Furthermore, multislice spiral computed tomography was employed to evaluate vascular calcification. The association between serum IS or Klotho levels and abdominal aorta calcification was assessed using univariate analysis and logistic regression analyses. Results. With the progression of CKD stages, serum creatinine, phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), serum IS, and abdominal aortic calcification exhibited incremental trends, while serum calcium and Klotho protein levels showed a diminishing trend, with statistically significant differences (P
