Abstract

This study aimed to investigate whether a combined estimation of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and the modified creatinine index (mCI) provides synergistic information for mortality in patients treated by chronic hemodialysis. We analyzed 499 patients on hemodialysis for five years. We set each cut-off value as the high (≥92) and low (
