Abstract

BACKGROUND: Thrombosis of arteriovenous fistulas represents a prevalent complication among patients undergoing hemodialysis, characterized by a notably high incidence rate. Presently, there is an absence of robust assessment tools capable of predicting thrombosis occurrence. This study seeks to develop an interpretable machine learning model to forecast the risk of arteriovenous fistula thrombosis.
