Abstract:ObjectiveTo explore the effect of intracellular water (ICW) evaluated by the bioelectrical Impedance Spectroscopy (BIS) on the risk of incident cognitive impairment (CI) in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients.MethodsThree thousand three hundred eighty‐five patients were recruited and monitored prospectively for up to 3 years (the median follow‐up time, 2 years) in this observational cohort study. Mini‐Mental State Examination score (MMSE) was used to assess the global cognitive function. ICW was measured by bod… Show more
