Modified creatinine index and risk for long-term infection-related mortality in hemodialysis patients: ten-year outcomes of the Q-Cohort Study

Modified creatinine (Cr) index, calculated by age, sex, pre-dialysis serum Cr concentration, and Kt/V for urea, is an indicator of skeletal muscle mass in hemodialysis (HD) patients. It remains unknown whether the modified Cr index predicts infection-related mortality in this population. We investig...
