Determination of phosphorus level in plasma, serum and urine is used to monitor and as an aid to the diagnosis of parathyroid and kidney diseases or vitamin D imbalance.
Increased phosphorus levels may be associated with increased phosphate intake, cell lysis (leukemia), transcellular phosphate shift (acidosis). Decreased phosphorus levels may occur in refeeding syndrome, decreased net intestinal phosphate absorption, lowered phosphate threshold in the kidneys.
