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 کاملSurvival on Home Dialysis in New Zealand
BACKGROUND New Zealand (NZ) has a high prevalence of both peritoneal dialysis (PD) and home haemodialysis (HD) relative to other countries, and probably less selection bias. We aimed to determine if home dialysis associates with better survival than facility HD by simultaneous comparisons of the three modalities. METHODS We analysed survival by time-varying dialysis modality in New Zealanders...
متن کاملCoumarins and survival in incident dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND The benefit and risk of oral anticoagulation in dialysis patients are debated controversially. METHODS We prospectively followed 235 dialysis patients of the INVOR Study (Study of Incident Dialysis Patients in Vorarlberg) for up to 7 years and analysed the prevalence and incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and the impact of coumarin therapy on survival. Oral anticoagulation was m...
متن کاملSocial support predicts survival in dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Social support is a consistent predictor of survival, as evidenced in empirical studies in patients with cancer or cardiovascular disease. In the area of renal diseases, this topic has not yet been studied extensively. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the association between social support and survival for patients on dialysis. METHODS Between December 1998 and January 2...
