The Combined Prognostic Significance of Alkaline Phosphatase and Intracranial Arterial Calcifications in Hemodialysis Patients

The combined effect of ICAC and elevated ALP was associated with a higher odds ratio for all-cause mortality in MHD patients and may contribute to the risk stratification of these patients.PMID:34569494 | DOI:10.1159/000518399
