The important advances in scientific knowledge have led to a notable enrichment of therapeutic offers in the field of CKD-MBD, which have allowed better control of the related biochemical parameters compared to the past. However, this has not corresponded to a tangible improvement in the clinical outcomes, both bone and cardiovascular, associated with CKD-MBD, nor has there been a significant drop in the number of pills that nephropathic patients must take, to keep the parameters controlled biochemicals, with the therapeutic cost of these interventions remaining high. All these unsatisfied needs continue to stimulate research to find new solutions that can improve one or more of these objectives not yet achieved. In this review of the most recent literature, we have tried to summarize what has been recently proposed in the therapeutic field of CKD-MBD, underlining the possible advantages of new drugs compared to already available therapies, with particular attention to unmet needs. We have also revisited the recent acquisitions relating to drugs that have already been in use for some time, reporting the most recent evidence that could change the approach to their use.

Purpose Of Review: This review is a critical analysis of treatment results obtained in clinical trials conducted in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), hyperphosphatemia, or both.
Recent Findings: Patients with CKD have a high mortality rate. The disorder of mineral and bone metabolism (CKD-MBD), which is commonly present in these patients, is associated with adverse outcomes, including cardiovascular events and mortality.

Background: Tremendous scientific research has been conducted on chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), while only a few bibliometric analyses have been conducted in this field. In this study, we aim to identify 100 top-cited articles on CKD-MBD and analyze their main characteristics quantitatively.
Methods: Web of Science was used to search the 100 top-cited articles on CKD-MBD.
