Figure 1

Relationship between visceral adiposity index (VAI) tertiles and all-cause mortality in hemodialysis patients with different nutritional status. The VAI predicted all-cause mortality in patients with a better nutritional status (GNRI ≥ 103.6) but not in those with a worse nutritional status (GNRI < 103.6). Analysis were adjusted for gender, age, hemodialysis vintage, presence of diabetes, hypertension and concurrent cardiovascular disease, hemoglobin, intact parathyroid hormone, high sensitive C-reactive protein and calcium phosphate product.
