Effect of renal transplantation on the cardiac function of patients with hemodialysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The impairment of short-term heart rate regulation in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) can cause acute hemodynamic collapse. Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) is a useful tool for the diagnosis of heart diseases and the prediction of mortality. In DFA, the short-term sc...
