Nomogram model based on clinical factors and autonomic nervous system activity for predicting residual renal function decline in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Several heart rate variability (HRV) parameters were reported to be associated with residual renal function (RRF) in patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). However, it is unclear whether using HRV or other autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity indexes can predict RRF decline in CAPD patients.

Methods

Patients undergoing CAPD in 2022 from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were enrolled in this study. Their clinical characteristics, 5-min HRV parameters and average voltage of 5-min skin sympathetic nerve activity (aSKNA) were collected. According to the 12-month glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decline rate compared with the upper quartile, these patients were categorized into two groups: RRF decline (RRF-D)
