Association of achieved dialysis dose with mortality in the hemodialysis study: an example of "dose-targeting bias".
In the intention-to-treat analysis of the Hemodialysis Study, all-cause mortality did not differ significantly between the high versus standard hemodialysis dose groups. The association of mortality with delivered dose within each of the two randomized treatment groups was examined, and implications for observational studies were considered. Time-dependent Cox regression was used to relate the ...
متن کاملSurvival of Dialysis Patients Using Random Survival Forest Model in Low-Dimensional Data with Few-Events
Background:Dialysis is a process for eliminating extra uremic fluids of patients with chronic renal failure. The present study aimed to determine the variables that influence the survival of dialysis patients using random survival forest model (RSFM) in low-dimensional data with low events per variable (EPV). Methods:In this historical cohort study, infor...
متن کاملDialysis dose and body mass index are strongly associated with survival in hemodialysis patients.
Low dose of hemodialysis (HD) and small body size are independent risk factors for mortality. Recent changes in clinical practice, toward higher HD doses and use of more high-flux dialyzers, suggest the need to redetermine the dose level above which no benefit from higher dose can be observed. Data were analyzed from 45,967 HD patients starting end-stage renal disease (ESRD) therapy during Apri...
متن کاملDialysis vintage, body composition, and survival in peritoneal dialysis patients.
The relationship between dialysis vintage (length of time on dialysis), body composition, and survival has been reported in hemodialysis patients. In the present study, we examined the association ofdialysis vintage with body composition and survival in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. At enrollment, body composition in 65 PD patients was determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Patien...
متن کاملRenal replacement II: dialysis dose.
Improved survival of critically ill acute renal failure patients can be correlated with therapy dose. The overall solute elimination can be measured by the product of clearance and time (Kt), which is usually normalized for the volume of distribution (V) of the solute as "Kt/V." Setting a Kt/V threshold of 1.4 can guide clinicians toward adequate treatment. This is a slightly higher prescriptio...
