Association of early failure of arteriovenous fistula with mortality in hemodialysis patients
Abstract Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is prone to early dysfunction and relates to poor outcome. However, little is known about the role of early AVF dysfunction as an independent risk factor for death in hemodialysis patients. A retrospective cohort study was performed using data of patients who und...
