| Abstract |
Abnormalities of cardiac structure and function are common in patients undergoing dialysis, and cardiovascular disease is the major cause of mortality in this group. Heart failure is a common clinical manifestation of cardiovascular disease and is preceded by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). There are variable reports about the impact of dialysis on LVH, both deleterious and beneficial. Our study investigated whether the timing of the initiation of dialysis therapy had an impact on cardiac structure and function. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 October 2018.
All research outputs
#7,355,485
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Kidney Diseases
#3,155
of 5,427 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#53,091
of 192,572 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Kidney Diseases
#26
of 60 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,427 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 16.9. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 192,572 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 60 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its contemporaries.
