Background The novel distal radial artery (dRA) approach is a popular arterial access route
for interventional cardiology and neurointerventions. We explored the dRA as an alternative …

Background Blood flow-induced wall shear stress is a strong local regulator of vascular
remodeling, but its effects on arteriovenous fistula (AVF) remodeling are unclear. Methods In …

Objective Currently, percutaneous endovascular creation of arteriovenous fistula (AVF)
shows excellent outcomes. However, few systematic research evidence to support clinical …

A significant number of arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) fail to maturate for dialysis. Although
interventions promote maturation, functional primary patency loss is higher for AVFs with …

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is essential for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on
hemodialysis, but treatment for AVF maturation failure remains an unmet clinical need …

(1) Background: Arterio-venous fistulas (AVFs) are considered the gold-standard vascular
access (VA) in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (HD) therapy. AVF calcifications …

Aim: To assess the value of lumen diameter after percutaneous angioplasty (PTA) to predict
functional dialysis use (FDU) of arteriovenous fistulas (AVF). Methods: We performed a …

Objectives: Ultrasonography is more frequently used in patients with arteriovenous fistula
(AVF) stenosis. The aim of this study is to use sonographic parameters for predicting primary …

Purpose To explore the correlation between preoperative cephalic vein pathological types
and the maturation of autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in patients with chronic kidney …

Abstract Background and Objective Arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) are the preferred mode of
hemodialysis vascular access and their successful maturation is critical to reduce patient …
