Effects of hemodialysis adequacy on chronic kidney disease complications using latent class trajectory modeling: a real-world study based on long-term observation of Kt/V.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Previous studies on hemodialysis adequacy primarily focused on the association between Kt/V and survival, and low Kt/V is associated with increased mortality. There is a paucity of research on the correlation between Kt/V and chronic kidney disease (CKD) complications.

Methods

The retrospective study was conducted in the blood purification center of a tertiary hospital in China from July 2020 to September 2022. It aimed to analyze the association between latent Kt/V trajectory categories and CKD complications (hypertension, anemia, mineral and bone disorder) and inflammatory markers. The latent class trajectory model was established to describe the different patterns of Kt/V changes over the observation period.

Results

During the 2-year study period, 93 p
