Association Between Serum Vitamin D Levels and Mortality in Children Receiving Chronic Dialysis: A Retrospective Cohort Study
In conclusion, children with end-stage renal disease undergoing dialysis face increased risks of vitamin D deficiency due to impaired kidney function. This deficiency significantly impacts survival rates and contributes to poor outcomes. Regular monitoring and management of vitamin D levels are crucial for improving survival in pediatric dialysis patients.
