Introduction: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) represents irreversible kidney failure in which renal function is inadequate to sustain life without renal replacement therapy (1). While pharmacological interventions play a crucial role in managing disease-related complications, non-pharmacological treatments remain the cornerstone of survival and long

Introduction: End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) represents the irreversible loss of kidney function in which the kidneys can no longer sustain life without renal replacement therapy such as dialysis or kidney transplantation (1). Clinically, ESRD is characterized by a persistently severely reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) typically below 10 mL

Introduction: Disease Overview and Diagnostic Perspectives of End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD): End-stage renal disease (ESRD) represents the final, irreversible stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by profound loss of kidney function that renders the kidneys unable to maintain vital physiological balance (1).
