Longitudinal albumin and blood pressure trajectories identify mortality risk phenotypes in hemodialysis

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

Researchers looked at 38,863 adults who started dialysis between 2010 and 2014. They tracked blood pressure and protein levels over time to find patterns. This shows a link between these trends and death risk, but it is not proof of cause.
