Better health-related quality of life is associated with prolonged survival and reduced hospitalization risk among dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease patients: a historical cohort study
Several dimensions of HRQoL are associated with patient-centered outcomes (i.e., mortality and hospitalizations at 1 year). Patient-Reported Outcomes contribute unique pieces of information characterizing patients' health. Residual confounding cannot be fully ruled out; moreover, the high attrition rate could result in selection bias, which may limit the generalizability of the findings to a broader population.
