Role of neutrophil extracellular traps in vascular access thrombosis in hemodialysis patients

A patent vascular access (VA) is a lifeline for hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, vascular access is prone to thrombosis, which, if left untreated, can lead to permanent VA loss and increased mortality. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are known to be involved in intravascular thrombosis. We evaluated the relationship between NETs and VA thrombosis and their impact on VA prognosis.
