Overview

Prospective cohort study assesses how annual dry weight changes influence mortality and cardiovascular events in haemodialysis patients, indicating significant risks associated with weight gain.

Key Points

  • Patients with moderate dry weight gain faced a 2.22 times higher risk of mortality compared to stable weight patients.
  • During a median follow-up of 3.1 years, 20% of participants experienced death, while 5.9% faced major adverse cardiovascular events.
  • Weight gain, both mild and moderate, significantly increased the risk of cardiovascular events compared to stable dry weight.
  • The risk patterns differ by body mass index, with moderate weight loss impacting normal-weight patients, while gain affecting those with obesity.
