Prognostic value of neutrophil percentage-to-albumin, uric acid-to-creatinine, and CRP-to-albumin ratios for mortality in patients on maintenance hemodialysis.

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study checked if certain blood test results can predict death in dialysis patients. It looked at ratios of different chemicals in the blood. The results showed some of these markers were linked to a higher risk of dying. This is an observational study, so it shows a link, not proof of cause.
