Quality of life and kidney function in CKD patients: a longitudinal study
This longitudinal study shows that declining kidney function is associated with deteriorating QoL in CKD patients independently of other factors. These findings support the current KDIGO recommendation that regular monitoring of QoL should be incorporated into clinical practice to improve patient outcomes.
