Association of Postexercise Vagal Dysfunction With Protein-Energy Wasting and Noncardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Receiving Hemodialysis: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Postexercise vagal dysfunction is linked to noncardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients, but the mechanism is unknown. This study aimed to determine the association of cardiovagal neuropathy with systemic inflammation, protein-energy wasting, and noncardiovascular hospitalization.
