Associations between different insulin resistance indices and the risk of all-cause mortality in peritoneal dialysis patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Insulin resistance (IR) is prevalent in individuals undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) and is related to increased susceptibility to coronary artery disease and initial peritonitis. In recent investigations, correlations have been found between indices of IR and the incidence of all-cause mortality in various populations. However, such correlations have not been detected among individuals undergoing PD. Hence, the present study's aim was to explore the connections between IR indices and the incidence of all-cause mortality in PD patients.

Methods

Peritoneal dialysis patients (n = 1736) were recruited from multiple PD centres between January 2010 and December 2021. Cox proportional hazards and restricted cubic spline regression models were used to evaluate the con
