Online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) removes more middle-sized uremic toxins but outcomes of individual trials comparing OL-HDF with hemodialysis have been discrepant. Secondary analyses reported higher convective volumes, easier to achieve in larger patients, and improved survival. Here we tested different methods to standardize OL-HDF convection volume on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality compared with hemodialysis. Pooled individual patient analysis of four prospective trials compared thirds of delivered convection volume with hemodialysis. Convection volumes were either not standardized or standardized to weight, body mass index, body surface area, and total body water. Data were analyzed by multivariable Cox proportional hazards modeling from 2793 patients. All-cause mortality was reduced when the convective dose was unstandardized or standardized to body surface area and total body water; hazard ratio (95% confidence intervals) of 0.65 (0.51–0.82), 0.74 (0.58–0.93), and 0.71 (0.56–0.93) for those receiving higher convective doses. Standardization by body weight or body mass index gave no significant survival advantage. Higher convection volumes were generally associated with greater survival benefit with OL-HDF, but results varied across different ways of standardization for body size. Thus, further studies should take body size into account when evaluating the impact of delivered convection volume on mortality end points. date: 2016-01 date_type: published publisher: NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP official_url: https://doi.org/10.1038/ki.2015.264 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1057477 doi: 10.1038/ki.2015.264 lyricists_name: Davenport, Andrew lyricists_id: ADAVE78 actors_name: Jayawardana, Anusha actors_id: AJAYA51 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Kidney International volume: 89 number: 1 pagerange: 193-199 pages: 7 issn: 1523-1755 citation: Davenport, A; Peters, SAE; Bots, ML; Canaud, B; Grooteman, MPC; Asci, G; Locatelli, F; ...
