ALB and Pruritus: On multivariate logistic regression, female gender (aOR: 3.592 [1.337-9.655], p=0.011), phosphate >4.5 mg/dL (aOR: 3.889 [1.118-15.532], p=0.033), albumin <3.5 g/dL (aOR: 2.987 [1.156-7.716], p=0.024), potassium >5.1 mEq/L (aOR: 2.934 [1.030-8.355], p=0.044), and presence of skin allergy (aOR: 8.100 [2.926-22.420], p<0.001) were independent factors associated with pruritus in hemodialysis patients as shown in Table 2.
