1 Volume 67, Issue 5, Pages 2032-2038 (May 2005)
Minimal and optimal peritoneal Kt/V targets: Results of an anuric peritoneal dialysis patient's survival analysis  Wai-Kei Lo, Sing-Leung Lui, Tak-Mao Chan, Fu-Keung Li, Man-Fai Lam, Kai-Chung Tse, Sydney Chi-Wai Tang, Cindy Bo-Ying Choy, Kar-Neng Lai  Kidney International  Volume 67, Issue 5, Pages (May 2005) DOI: /j x Copyright © 2005 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Unadjusted cumulative survival of patients according to their baseline Kt/V at initial documentation of anuria. Continuous line represents patients with Kt/V above or equal to 1.67 (N = 90). Bold broken line represents patients with Kt/V below 1.67 (N = 60). The survival difference was statistically significant (P = ). Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2005 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Unadjusted cumulative survival of patients according to their baseline Kt/V at initial documentation of anuria. Continuous line represents patients with Kt/V above or equal to 1.80 (N = 64). Bold broken line represents patients with Kt/V below 1.80 (N = 86). The survival rates were almost identical (P = ).

4 Figure 3 Unadjusted cumulative survival of female patients according to their baseline Kt/V at initial documentation of anuria. Continuous line represents patients with Kt/V above or equal to 1.67 (N = 68), and bold broken line represents patients with Kt/V below 1.67 (N = 22). The survival difference was statistically significant (P = ). It was not statistically significant when the Kt/V cut-off was made at 1.70 or above. The two survival curves become almost identical when Kt/V cut-off was made at 1.80. Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2005 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

5 Figure 4 Unadjusted cumulative survival of male patients according to their baseline Kt/V at initial documentation of anuria. Continuous line represents patients with Kt/V above or equal to 1.67 (N = 40), and bold broken line represents patients with Kt/V below 1.67 (N = 22). The survival difference was not statistically significant (P = ). It was not statistically significant at any Kt/V cut-off values. The two survival curves were almost identical when Kt/V cut-off was made at 1.70 (P = ).

6 Figure 5 Unadjusted cumulative survival of female patients according to their baseline Kt/V at initial documentation of anuria. Continuous line represents patients with Kt/V between 1.67 and 1.86 (N = 33), dashed line represents patients with Kt/V 1.87 or above (N = 35), and bold dotted line represents patients with Kt/V below 1.67 (N = 22). The survival difference was statistically significant (P = ). The difference between patients with Kt/V below 1.67 and those between 1.67 and 1.86 was significant (P = 0.004), and also between patients with Kt/V 1.67 and 1.86, and those 1.87 or above (P = ) Kidney International  , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2005 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions
