RATIONALE: Thrombosis due to anastomotic site stenosis is the most common complication in patients with brachio-axillary arteriovenous graft (AVG). Intravascular stent placement may play a special role in the salvage of dialysis grafts that have been...
BACKGROUND: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access (VA) for hemodialysis, but it is associated with high non-maturation and failure rates. Predicting patient-specific AVF maturation and postoperative changes in blood flow volume...
BACKGROUND: Arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) and Arteriovenous Grafts (AVG) may present a problematic vascular access for renal replacement therapy (RRT), reliant on recurrent specialist nurse and medical evaluation. Dysfunctional accesses are frequently...
OBJECTIVE: Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) guidelines discourage ongoing access salvage attempts after two interventions prior to successful use or more than three interventions per year overall. The goal was to develop a tool for ...

The early detection of arteriovenous (AV) access dysfunction is crucial for maintaining the patency of vascular access. This study aimed to use deep learning to predict AV access malfunction necessitating further vascular management. This prospecti...
End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) presents a significant public health challenge, with hemodialysis (HD) remaining one of the most prevalent kidney replacement therapies. Ensuring the longevity and functionality of arteriovenous accesses is challenging...
INTRODUCTION: Autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). However, complications such as thrombosis may occur. This study aimed to construct and validate a machine lea...
BACKGROUND: Heart failure is common in patients receiving hemodialysis. A high-flow arteriovenous fistula (AVF) may represent a modifiable risk factor for heart failure and death. Currently, no tools exist to assess the risk of developing a high-flow...
BACKGROUND: Arteriovenous fistula stenosis is a common complication in hemodialysis patients, yet effective predictive tools are lacking. This study aims to develop an interpretable machine learning model for stenosis risk prediction.
