Adrianne Ball,Daniel L. Gillen,Donald J. Sherrard,Noel S. Weiss,Scott S. Emerson,Steve L. Seliger,Bryan Kestenbaum,Catherine Stehman-Breen +7 more
TL;DR: The high risk of hip fracture among dialysis patients is exceeded by that among renal transplant patients during the first 1 to 3 years after transplantation, and among transplant recipients, risk of fracture was relatively higher in persons with a prolonged period of dialysis before transplantation.

TL;DR: Whether the use of statins is associated with a reduction in cardiovascular-specific death and total mortality in ESRD patients with end-stage renal disease is determined.

Craig S. Wong,Craig S. Wong,Sangeeta Hingorani,Sangeeta Hingorani,Daniel L. Gillen,Daniel L. Gillen,Donald J. Sherrard,Donald J. Sherrard,Sandra L. Watkins,Sandra L. Watkins,John R. Brandt,John R. Brandt,Adrianne Ball,Adrianne Ball,Catherine Stehman-Breen,Catherine Stehman-Breen +15 more
TL;DR: Pediatric patients initiating dialysis with hypoalbuminemia are at a higher risk for death, and this finding persists after adjusting for glomerular causes for ESRD and other potential confounding variables.

Increased risk for cardiovascular mortality among malnourished end-stage renal disease patients
Frank Fung,Donald J. Sherrard,Daniel L. Gillen,Craig S. Wong,Bryan Kestenbaum,Steven Seliger,Adrianne Ball,Catherine Stehman-Breen +7 more
TL;DR: Both PEM at baseline and worsening PEM over time are associated with a greater risk for CV death, and this finding persists among dialysis patients without preexisting CVD at baseline.

Risk factors for upper gastrointestinal bleeding among end-stage renal disease patients.
Haimanot Wasse,Daniel L. Gillen,Adrianne Ball,Bryan Kestenbaum,Stephen L. Seliger,Donald J. Sherrard,Catherine Stehman-Breen +6 more
TL;DR: CVD, current smoking, and risk factors suggesting more disability are associated with a greater risk of UGIB among patients with ESRD, according to a cohort study of dialysis patients.
