Osteoporosis was linked to a mortality rate of 79.8% amongst hemodialysis patients aged 70 and older.
Cox regression analysis indicated a significantly higher mortality risk for patients with osteoporosis compared to those with normal bone mineral density.
Of the 710 older patients studied, 39.0% had osteoporosis, associated with female sex and history of fractures.
The findings underscore the need for fracture prevention and phosphate binder use in managing bone health in hemodialysis patients.
