Cross-sectional study identifies elevated PIV as a significant marker for CKM severity, indicating potential for risk assessment.
This study indicates that elevated PIV levels are independently associated with a higher likelihood of advanced (stage 4) CKM. The predictive model demonstrates that PIV, when combined with other readily available clinical variables, is strongly associated with CKM severity, suggesting that PIV may serve as a valuable marker for risk stratification in patients with CKM.
