Cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) is an index reflecting the proper stiffness of the arterial tree from the origin of the aorta to the ankle. We aimed to clarify the utility of CAVI as a predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients. The roles of age and nutritional conditions on survival were also examined.Methods: We followed 242 patients undergoing hemodialysis for 6 consecutive years. Data from 209 patients (mean age was 60 ± 11 years) excluding those with ankle-brachial index < 0.90 were then analyzed. CAVI and heart to ankle pulse wave velocity (haPWV) were measured using Vasera 1500.Results: Thirty-eight hemodialysis patients who died during the 6-year period had higher age, cardiothoracic ratio (CTR), CAVI, and haPWV, and lower diastolic blood pressure, albumin, phosphate, and calcium phosphate product. The Kaplan–Meier curves for cumulative survival among the tertile groups showed that the mortality rate was higher in the highest tertile (T3) compared to T1/T2 for both CAVI and haPWV. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed that CAVI had better discriminatory power for all-cause mortality compared to haPWV. In the Cox-proportional hazards analyses, 1 SD increase in both parameters contributed independently to all-cause mortality [CAVI: HR 1.595 (95% CI 1.108– 2.297), haPWV: HR 1.695 (95% CI 1.185– 2.425)], as well as age and CTR. Both parameters above the cut-offs estimated in the ROC analysis (CAVI ≥ 9.2, haPWV ≥ 8.9) also had independent contributions to mortality.Conclusion: Through the 6 consecutive years of follow-up in 209 HD patients, increased CAVI might represent a major modifiable risk factor for all-cause mortality. Further research is needed to examine whether CAVI-lowering interventions contribute to improved prognosis.Keywords: hemodialysis patient, mortality, cardio-ankle vascular index, phosphorusMurakami KInayama EItoh YTuchiya SIwasaki MTamura NSuzuki TIwai NUtino JMasai MNagayama DShirai KDove Medical Pressarticlehemodialysis patientmortalitycardio-ankle vascular indexphosphorusDiseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) systemRC666-701ENVascular Health and Risk Management, Vol Volume 17, Pp 791-798 (2021)
