| pubmed-article:19839831 | pubmed:abstractText | It is well known that serum urea concentration is not a good predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients. On the other hand, urea kinetic modeling has been very successfully used to measure dialysis dose by the Kt/V index, which was found to be a good predictor of mortality. Could there be a relation between urea and mortality, but in some more complex way? | lld:pubmed |
