Kidney transplantation (KT) is an effective treatment for end-stage renal disease; however, the lifelong immunosuppressive regimen increases the risk of infection, presenting significant clinical, and economic challenges. Identifying predictive bioma...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has shown that patients with end-stage renal disease have decreased gray matter volume and density. However, the cortical area and thickness in patients on hemodialysis are uncertain, and the relationship between pati...
BACKGROUND: Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in the United States, yet access and outcomes vary by insurance type, race, and socioeconomic status. This systematic review synthesizes U.S.-based evid...
OBJECTIVE: Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients often suffer from sarcopenia, affecting lower limb muscle strength and increasing the risk of falls and mortality. This study aims to develop an auxiliary screening model for sarcopenia in MHD patien...
BACKGROUND: Patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing dialysis face significant physical, psychological, and social challenges that impact their quality of life. Social media platforms such as X (formerly known as Twitter) have become importa...
