Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Central venous catheters (CVCs) are preferred when a patent arteriovenous fistula (AVF) cannot be created. CVCs have been shown to be associated with increased inflammation and mortality. In the present study, we aimed to investigate a probable association between the vascular access type and BMI, total body fat, truncal fat, muscle mass, visceral (periaortic) fat, and the malnutrition inflammation atherosclerosis and calcification score (MIAC) in hemodialysis patients
