TLDR
Analysis of 5-year survival for new end-stage renal disease patients accepted for renal replacement therapy between 1982 and 1987 in the United States, Europe, and Japan showed that the US patients were older and more likely to be diabetic than the patients in either EDTA or Japan.About:

The Urea Reduction Ratio and Serum Albumin Concentration as Predictors of Mortality in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
TL;DR: Low urea reduction ratios during dialysis are associated with increased odds ratios for death, and these risks are worsened by inadequate nutrition.

Association of Comorbid Conditions and Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients in Europe, Japan, and the United States: The Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS)
David A. Goodkin,Jennifer L. Bragg-Gresham,Karl G. Koenig,Robert A. Wolfe,Takashi Akiba,Vittorio E. Andreucci,Akira Saito,Hugh C. Rayner,Kiyoshi Kurokawa,Friedrich K. Port,Philip J. Held,Eric W. Young +11 more
TL;DR: Variability in demographic and comorbid conditions (as identified by dialysis facilities) explains only part of the differences in mortality between dialysis centers, both for comparisons made across continents and within the US.

The dose of hemodialysis and patient mortality
Philip J. Held,Friedrich K. Port,Robert A. Wolfe,David C. Stannard,Caitlin E. Carroll,John T. Daugirdas,Wendy E. Bloembergen,Joel W. Greer,Raymond M. Hakim +8 more
TL;DR: The level of hemodialysis dose measured by URR or Kt/V beyond which the mortality rate does not continue to decrease, though not well defined with this study, appears to be above current levels of typical treatment of he modialysis patients in the U.S.

Nonadherence in hemodialysis: associations with mortality, hospitalization, and practice patterns in the DOPPS.

TL;DR: Nonadherence was associated with increased mortality risk (skipping treatment, excessive IDWG, and high phosphate) and with hospitalization risk (kipping, high phosphate).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Dose of Dialysis on Morbidity and Mortality
TL;DR: It is concluded that increasing the dose of delivered dialysis decreases the hospitalization and mortality rates of hemodialysis-dependent patients.

A Survey of Vascular Access for Haemodialysis in The Netherlands
TL;DR: A survey of vascular access in a large population in The Netherlands found that the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) graft was the one most used graft and was selected in more than 50% of the cases in 17 centres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival analysis of patients undergoing dialysis.
TL;DR: Patients treated in for-profit and not-for-profit units appeared to have the same mortality, although patients treated in freestanding units had lower mortality, and the direction of causation was not always clear in these results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Results of Renal Replacement Therapy in Europe, 1980 to 1987
TL;DR: It is concluded that, during the last decade, survival on RRT has continued to improve not only because of decreasing mortality after transplantation and on CAPD, but also due to improving survival on hemodialysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mortality in Chronic Dialysis Patients in Japan
TL;DR: The addition of older patients has not as yet increased Japanese mortality, which is markedly higher in the first year of dialysis than in later years.
