Cumulative incidence curves for patient survival rate (A) and cardiovascular hospitalization events (B). The cumulative death rate was significantly lower in patients with RKF undergoing thrice-weekly HD than in patients without RKF undergoing thrice-weekly HD (P < 0.001) or in patients with RKF undergoing twice-weekly HD (P = 0.02). The lowest cumulative event rate for CVE hospitalization was observed in patients with RKF undergoing thrice-weekly HD (P = 0.01). CVE = cardiovascular event; HD = hemodialysis; RKF = residual kidney function.
