Among younger ESRD patients (≤65 years of age) with CHF, the prognosis of HD was worse than that of PD [HR = 1.84, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.01–3.34], and this disadvantage remained significant in the fully adjusted model [sex, age at dialysis initiation, Charlson comorbidities index, body mass index, prealbumin, hemoglobin, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)] and after PSM. The gene discussed is TTR; the disease is congestive heart failure.
