TL;DR: Comparing the incidence of cancer in patients receiving immune suppression after kidney transplantation with incidence in the same population in 2 periods before receipt of immune suppression suggests a broader than previously appreciated role of the interaction between the immune system and common viral infections in the etiology of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Survival of Children with End-Stage Renal Disease
TL;DR: Overall, a trend toward improved survival was observed over the four decades of the study, and mortality rates among children requiring renal-replacement therapy remain substantially higher than those among children without end-stage renal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular Access and All-Cause Mortality: A Propensity Score Analysis
TL;DR: Reducing catheter use and increasing the proportion of patients commencing hemodialysis with a mature AVF remain important clinical objectives and the use of propensity scores offers an additional method to reduce bias resulting from nonrandomized treatment assignment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between Dialysis Modality and Mortality
TL;DR: Treatment with PD may be advantageous initially but may be associated with higher mortality after 12 mo, and the effect of dialysis modality on survival for an individual depends on time, age, and presence of comorbidities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry
TL;DR: The various types of information from the ANZDATA Registry are used in a wide variety of areas, including health services planning, safety and quality programs, and clinical research projects.
