Moreover, cardiovascular readmission within the first year after dialysis was associated with a higher risk of infection-related mortality and technique failure after adjusting for age and sex (HR 2.05, 95%CI 1.08–3.90, p = 0.03; HR 1.60, 95%CI 1.00–2.55, p = 0.05, respectively), but the significance was attenuated after adjusting for DM history, CVD history, hypertension history, BMI, hemoglobin, albumin, calcium, phosphorus, TC, triglyceride, HDLC, LDLC, sodium, potassium, WCCr and RRF (HR 2.06, 95%CI 0.97–4.39, p = 0.06; HR 1.58, 95% CI 0.84–2.96, p = 0.15, respectively). The gene discussed is ALB; the disease is infection.
