Abdominal aortic calcification score can predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2023
Purpose Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) assessed by using standard lateral lumbar radiographs can be graded, and composite summary scores (range, 0–24) have been shown to be highly predictive of subsequent cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in ...
