Abstract
Previous studies have shown that hyponatremia is associated with greater mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, there have been few reports regarding the importance of the change in serum sodium (SNa) concentration (ΔSNa) during dialysis sessions. To investigate the relationships of pre-dialysis hyponatremia and ΔSNa during a dialysis session with mortality, we analyzed data from a national registry of Japanese patients with end-stage...
