Preprint C Not peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study looked at how U.S. doctors adjust the medicines used for bone and mineral problems in dialysis patients. It reviewed records from 23,549 people on in-center dialysis between 2006 and 2015. It describes how much practices differ between doctors, but it does not test which approach leads to better health. It is a preprint, not yet peer reviewed.
