Description
Summary:Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the maximum lifetime body mass index (max BMI) with hemodialysis initiation and comorbidities in Japanese hemodialysis patients. Methods: In a retrospective cross-sectional study on 724 hemodialysis patients, max BMI, age at hemodialysis initiation, and comorbidities including sleep apnea syndrome, cerebro-cardiovascular diseases, and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) were analyzed. Early hemodialysis initiation was defined as age
