Abstract Chronic volume overload is a major risk factor of hypertension and mortality in chronic dialysis patients. However, the mechanisms responsible for hypertension are unclear. We studied 32 patients (age 23–68 years, 19 females) in chronic hemodiafiltration classified by their interdialytic ambulatory blood pressure (idABP, mmHg) in three groups:
