          Abstract

          This article has been retracted by Hindawi following an investigation undertaken by the publisher [1]. This investigation has uncovered evidence of one or more of the following indicators of systematic manipulation of the publication process: Discrepancies in scope Discrepancies in the description of the research reported Discrepancies between the availability of data and the research described Inappropriate citations Incoherent, meaningless and/or irrelevant content included in the article Peer-review manipulation The presence of these indicators undermines our confidence in the integrity of the article's content and we cannot, therefore, vouch for its reliability. Please note that this notice is intended solely to alert readers that the content of this article is unreliable. We have not investigated whether authors were aware of or involved in the systematic manipulation of the publication process. Wiley and Hindawi regrets that the usual quality checks did not identify these issues before publication and have since put additional measures in place to safeguard research integrity. We wish to credit our own Research Integrity and Research Publishing teams and anonymous and named external researchers and research integrity experts for contributing to this investigation. The corresponding author, as the representative of all authors, has been given the opportunity to register their agreement or disagreement to this retraction. We have kept a record of any response received.

          Low Serum Albumin Is Associated with Poor Prognosis in Patients Receiving Peritoneal Dialysis Treatment

          Background The number of patients receiving dialysis treatment is sustainably increasing, especially peritoneal dialysis. Objectives It is necessary to find out potential factors that may indicate the prognosis of patients receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment. Methods This study retrospectively involved 325 patients who received peritoneal dialysis treatment. Results Low serum albumin (HR = 2.254; 95% CI: 1.534–3.311; P < 0.001) and high FBG (Fasting blood glucose) (HR = 1.474; 95% CI: 1.025–2.120; P =0.037) were risk factors for death in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment. Serum albumin (AUC = 0.683; P < 0.001) and creatinine (AUC = 0.625; P < 0.001) exhibited value of prognosis prediction. Both high FBG ( P =0.005) and low albumin ( P < 0.001) were associated with poor prognosis, and low albumin predicted poorer survival. Conclusions Low serum albumin and high fasting blood glucose were risk factors and associated with poor prognosis. Low albumin has a potential in predicting the prognosis of patients receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment.
