Vascular Access Calcification and Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation

Timmy Lee
- 30 May 2014 - 
TL;DR: An improved understanding of how vascular calcification plays a pathophysiological role in hemodialysis vascular access dysfunction may improve therapies to treat arteriovenous fistula (AVF) non-maturation and the health of the vessels prior to vascular access creation.

Optimising the maturation rate of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD)

Khalid Bashar
TL;DR: All of the relevant titles were obtained and evaluated for eligibility (KB, DH) and any remaining uncertainty was resolved by examination of KB, DH.

Dialysis: Reducing central venous catheter use in haemodialysis.

Michael Allon
- 01 Jun 2015 - 
TL;DR: Although consensus guidelines promote the use of arteriovenous fistulas for vascular access, the vast majority of US patients initiate haemodialysis using a central venous catheter.

Statistical Aspects of the Analysis of Data From Retrospective Studies of Disease

Nathan Mantel, +1 more
- 01 Apr 1959 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the role and limitations of retrospective investigations of factors possibly associated with the occurrence of a disease are discussed and their relationship to forward-type studies emphasized, and examples of situations in which misleading associations could arise through the use of inappropriate control groups are presented.

Group Sequential Methods with Applications to Clinical Trials

Christopher Jennison, +1 more
TL;DR: A short history of sequential and group sequential methods can be found in this paper, where the authors present a road map for the application of two-sided tests for comparing two treatments with normal response of known variance.

Increasing arteriovenous fistulas in hemodialysis patients: Problems and solutions

Michael Allon, +1 more
- 01 Oct 2002 - 
TL;DR: Implementing these measures is likely to increase the prevalence of fistulas in any given dialysis unit, however, differences among dialysis units are likely to persist because of differences in gender, race, and co-morbidity mix of the patient population.

Hemodialysis vascular access morbidity.

Harold I. Feldman, +2 more
- 01 Apr 1996 - 
TL;DR: To reduce vascular access-related morbidity, strategies must be developed not only to prevent and detect appropriately early synthetic vascular access dysfunction, but to better identify the patients in a whom radial arteriovenous fistula is a viable clinical option.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aggressive treatment of early fistula failure

Gerald A. Beathard, +3 more
- 01 Oct 2003 - 
TL;DR: If correctable pathology is detected in patients with early fistula failure, the incidence of correctable lesions is relatively high and an aggressive therapeutic approach can be expected to have a high yield.
