Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Higinio Cao Baduell"
- Higinio Cao Baduell's recent research primarily focuses on the impact of kidney transplantation on patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis, specifically regarding the risks of chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) and amputation.
- The study utilized a retrospective cohort design, analyzing data from ESRD patients entering a hemodialysis program over a decade, from 2000 to 2010, to assess baseline characteristics, duration on hemodialysis, and the outcomes related to CLTI and amputation.
- Findings suggest that kidney transplantation significantly reduces the risk of developing CLTI and the necessity for amputations in patients with ESRD on hemodialysis, underscoring the importance of transplant as a protective intervention.
