Sex differences in mortality among binational cohort of people with chronic kidney disease: population based data linkage study

Our study aimed to evaluate sex differences in mortality in the Australian and New Zealand population with kidney failure by using relative measures of survival to account for expected background mortality in the general population. We hypothesised that people with kidney failure would have greater mortality than the general population, and sought to explore whether the impact of kidney failure on excess mortality was comparable between sexes.
