Increased indexed proximal aortic diameter is a predictor of poor prognosis in maintenance hemodialysis patients by Junwei Xu, Wenyi Tang, Lizheng Song, Yuxi Huang, Li Xiao, Fangyuan Cheng, Qianglin Guan, Mei Xu, Chuoxin Ma, Jian Chen, Jianting Ke

“…Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that ARD/BSA was an independent prognostic factor for all-cause mortality (HR, per 1-SD increase, 1.403; 95% CI, 1.118–1.761; p = 0.003) as well as MACE (HR, per 1-SD increase, 1.356; 95% CI, 1.037–1.772; p = 0.026).Conclusions Our results show that ARD/BSA is predictive of all-cause mortality and MACE in MHD patients with ESRD and support the view that assessment of ARD/BSA may refine risk stratification and preventive strategies in this population.…”
