Comparison of clinical characteristics between the ΔACI-high and ΔACI-low groups. In the ΔACI-high group (ΔACI ≥5.8%), the proportion of males was significantly higher compared with the ΔACI-low group (ΔACI < 5.8%) (a). Among patients in the ΔACI-high group, serum phosphate (b), intact parathyroid hormone (i-PTH) (c), and CRP (d) were significantly higher compared with patients in the ΔACI-low group. Hemodialysis (HD) vintage (e), serum albumin (f), Kt/V (g), and Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) (h) were significantly shorter or lower in the ΔACI-high group than in the ΔACI-low group
