Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier survival curves stratified by vascular access type. Cumulative survival probability over 12 months for 79 incident hemodialysis patients initiating treatment at Murang’a County Referral Hospital. Patients using central venous catheters (CVC, blue dashed line, n = 71) showed significantly lower survival compared to those with arteriovenous fistulas (AVF, black solid line, n = 8) (Log-rank P = 0.015). Hazard Ratio (CVC vs AVF) = 3.12 (95%CI: 1.08-9.01). AVF: Arteriovenous fistula; CVC: Central venous catheter; HR: Hazard ratio.
