May link reduced BRS to excess HD mortality in vascular calcification; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Is reduced baroreflex sensitivity associated with increased mortality in hemodialysis patients with vascular calcification?
Reduced baroreflex sensitivity may contribute to the increased mortality observed in hemodialysis patients with vascular calcification.
Chesterton et al. (2005) studied this question.
