Habits linked to lower cardiovascular death risk in kidney disease

In advanced kidney disease, 10-point higher health behavior scores were linked to lower cardiovascular mortality, with a hazard ratio of 0.829.In advanced kidney disease, 10-point higher health behavior scores were linked to lower cardiovascular mortality, with a hazard ratio of 0.829.
