Changes in mortality hazard of the Korean long-term dialysis population: The dependencies of time and modality switch.
CONCLUSIONS: PD was associated with increased HR of mortality in the first 8 years, then it was associated with decreased HR of mortality after 10 years. Dialysis modality switch was associated with increased mortality risk, but switch from PD to HD within 6 years did not show significant hazard of mortality.
