I invite healthcare professionals to open debate around the issues raised in my poster, both those relating to research and to clinical practice.

This is an interesting study pointing out again the role of albumin as a risk biomarker.

Did you adjust for inflammation biomarkers like CRP, IL-6 ... that can interfere with serum albumin level?

I think it would be interesting to include patients from Africa where most of them present baseline hypoalbuminemia on dialysis initiation.
