Does arterial media calcification predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients?
Does arterial media calcification predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients?
Arterial media calcification is an independent predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients, likely driven by increased arterial stiffness.
