Survival advantages of obesity in dialysis patients

TL;DR: The causes and consequences of the reverse epidemiology of obesity in dialysis patients can enhance insights into similar paradoxes observed for other conventional risk factors, such as blood pressure and serum cholesterol and homocysteine concentrations, and in other populations such as those with CHF, advanced age, cancer, or AIDS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations Between Changes in Hemoglobin and Administered Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agent and Survival in Hemodialysis Patients

TL;DR: In this article, longitudinal associations between survival and quarterly (13-wk averaged) hemoglobin values and administered erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA) dose in a 2-yr (July 2001 to June 2003) cohort of 58,058 maintenance hemodialysis patients from a large dialysis organization (DaVita) in the United States.
Journal ArticleDOI

Revisiting mortality predictability of serum albumin in the dialysis population: time dependency, longitudinal changes and population-attributable fraction

TL;DR: Time-varying hypoalbuminaemia predicts all-cause and CV death differently from fixed measures of serum albumin in MHD patients, and an increase in serumalbumin over time is associated with better survival independent of baseline serum albumIn or other MICS surrogates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of morbid obesity and weight change over time with cardiovascular survival in hemodialysis population.

TL;DR: Weight gain and both baseline and time-varying obesity may be associated with reduced cardiovascular mortality in MHD patients independent of laboratory surrogates of nutritional status and their changes over time.
