Two-year survival curves of elderly patients treated by in-center short daily hemodialysis. The graph depicts the survival curves up to 24 months after commencing short daily hemodialysis (SDHD) for patients older than 65 years (SDHD ≥ 65) in red, and the control group in black. The difference in survival between SDHD ≥ 65 and control > 65 did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.13, log-rank test) (colour figure online)
