The Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) at Dialysis Initiation and Mortality in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in East Asian Populations: A Meta-analysis

The Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) at Dialysis Initiation and Mortality in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in East Asian Populations: A Meta-analysis

Objective The impact of dialysis initiation on survival is still somewhat controversial. Given that race or ethnicity has been observed to be a predictor of mortality and the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease, we conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the effect of early vs. late dial...
