Glycemic Control and Infections Among US Hemodialysis Patients With Diabetes Mellitus.

In model 4, we found that patients with HbA1c <5.5% (<37 mmol/mol) had 33% (95% CI, 13%, 56%) and 18% (95% CI, 11%, 25%) higher rates of infection-related and all-cause mortality respectively, compared with patients with HbA1c 5.5 to <6.5% (37 to <48 mmol/mol), but these associations became either no longer significant (infection-related mortality) or only marginally significant (all-cause mortality) after adjusting for time-varying but not baseline laboratory values ( Supplementary Table S2 ).
