3. Figure 2
Kaplan–Meier analysis of survival for 282 patients undergoing hemodialysis. Patients with physical activity above the 4,000 steps per a nondialysis (thick dark line) at baseline had significantly better survival than those with lower values (dotted line; P < .001 by log-rank test).

4. Figure 3
Graphical visualization of the Cox proportional hazard model using the restricted cubic spline conversion. *Predicted hazard ratios were estimated from Cox proportional hazards regression analysis after adjustment for confounders, including age, sex, time on hemodialysis, body mass index, geriatric nutritional risk index, and comorbidity score. Four knots for the model were placed at the 5th, 35th, 65th, and 95th centiles, and a highest point of mortality risk was taken as the reference value.
