Survival Outcomes and Risk Factors in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Kidney Replacement Therapy in Brazil: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Paper C Not peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study followed children in Brazil who needed dialysis or a transplant, and looked at how long they survived and what raised their risk. It is observational and looks backward at existing records, so it shows links, not proof of cause. It is also a preprint, meaning other scientists have not yet checked it. The record we received did not include how many children were studied or the survival numbers.
