Cross-sectional study finds high rates of cardiac abnormalities in hemodialysis patients, indicating significant health risks.

Echocardiography revealed that 58.3% of hemodialysis patients presented with left ventricular hypertrophy.
Diastolic dysfunction was prevalent in 66.7% of patients, indicating a major cardiac issue among those on hemodialysis.
Hypertension had significant correlations with several echocardiographic abnormalities, emphasizing the need for monitoring.
Routine echocardiographic assessments are essential for identifying cardiac issues in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis.

Myo et al. (2025) studied this question.
