Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the optimal and late initiation of dialysis on the mortality and quality of life in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients by the Dialysis Initi...

Detailed Description

The optimal time of dialysis initiation is still controversial. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) which is now widely used as the assessment of timing of dialysis is lack of specificity. Som...
