Impact of the Preservation of Residual Kidney Function on Hemodialysis Survival: Results from the BISTRO Trial (2024)
Journal Article
Belcher, J., Coyle, D., Lindley, E. J., Keane, D., Caskey, F. J., Dasgupta, I., …Davies, S. J. (2024). Impact of the Preservation of Residual Kidney Function on Hemodialysis Survival: Results from the BISTRO Trial. Kidney360, https://doi.org/10.34067/kid.0000000596

Preservation of residual kidney function (RKF) in dialysis patients has been associated with improved survival. RKF in the BISTRO trial was relatively well preserved and here we describe its association with survival during the trial and extended fol...
