(A-D) Biomarkers in hemodialysis (HD) patient serum compared with those in the plasma from controls with normal cognition (NL) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). (A) Phosphorylated tau181 (p-tau181) (n = 71 NL, 38 MCI, and 37 HD). (B) Neurofilament light chain (NfL: n = 162 NL, 41 MCI, and 32 HD). (C) Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1: n = 159 NL, 40 MCI, and 32 HD). (D) Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP: n = 162 NL, 41 MCI, and 32 HD); ∗P < 0.05, ∗∗∗∗P < 0.0001. (E-H) Trends in biomarker concentration based on dialysis vintage (months on HD): reduction in plasma (E) amyloid β-42/40 (Aβ42/40) ratio (n = 36) and increase in (F) p-tau181/tau ratio (n = 33), (G) NfL (n = 32), and (H) GFAP (n = 32).
