Six themes were identified: impinging on capacity to work (lacking physical endurance and energy, battling with cognitive symptoms, grueling treatment schedule), narrowed vocational opportunities and financial insecurity (unfulfilled dreams and worry about job prospects, struggling to stay afloat financially), discrimination and stigma (overlooked by potential employers, being pushed out of jobs or fired, delaying or avoiding disclosure of dialysis), conducive workplace environments (empathy and support from managers and colleagues, occupational adjustments), managing dialysis around work (choosing a suitable dialysis type to support work, careful time management and scheduling), and fostering esteem, enjoyment and social connection.LIMITATIONSOnly English-language articles were included.CONCLUSIONSAmong people receiving dialysis, the symptom and treatment burdens, lack of workplace accommodations, and discrimination all compromised sustained employment. Conversely, supportive workplaces that implemented tailored occupational adjustments enabled work participation, thereby boosting psychosocial well-being. Workplace advocacy and flexible work arrangements, symptom management, and aligning dialysis modality choices and timing with work demands may help to improve participation and work ability among people on dialysis.","PeriodicalId":7419,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Kidney Diseases","volume":"146 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":13.2,"publicationDate":"2026-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147495191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examining whether the expansion led to improvements in optimal treatment at the start of kidney failure has been understudied and was the focus of this investigation.STUDY DESIGNObservational cohort study.SETTING & PARTICIPANTSPatients aged 26-64 years represented in the United States Renal Data System initiating treatment for kidney failure between 2008 and 2019.EXPOSUREResidence in states that did or did not expand Medicaid in 2014.OUTCOMEOptimal start of kidney failure treatment was defined as undergoing preemptive kidney transplantation, initiating home dialysis, or initiating in-center hemodialysis using an arteriovenous access.ANALYTICAL APPROACHInterrupted time series analyses were implemented to evaluate the adjusted association of residence in a Medicaid expansion state and optimal kidney failure treatment by comparing the trend in optimal kidney failure treatment starts during the pre-expansion vs. the post-expansion periods.RESULTSBefore Medicaid expansion, the percentage with optimal starts increased similarly in expansion and non-expansion states. After Medicaid expansion, the percentage with optimal starts continued increasing in expansion states but decreased in non-expansion states, resulting in a 3.9% (95% CI 0.5%, 7.2%) higher percentage with optimal starts in expansion vs. non-expansion states by 2019 (P=0.02 for post vs. pre change in trend). Most of the change in trend was attributable to a greater increase in use of home dialysis at initiation of kidney failure treatment in expansion vs. non-expansion states (difference 0.29% per year [95% CI 0.08%, 0.51%]) during the post-expansion period.LIMITATIONSPotential for unmeasured confounding from state-level factors other than Medicaid expansion.CONCLUSIONSMedicaid expansion was associated with an increasing percentage of patients with incident kidney failure experiencing an optimal start to treatment, driven mostly by an increase in the use of home dialysis. Expanding Medicaid coverage may offer an opportunity to improve treatment for low-income patients initiating kidney replacement therapy.PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARYThis study examined whether the expansion of Medicaid eligibility in 2014 led to improvements in the percentage of patients receiving an optimal start (i.e., kidney transplantation before the need to start dialysis, initiation of home dialysis, or initiation of in-center hemodialysis using an arteriovenous access) to treatment for new-onset kidney failure. We compared trends from 2008 to 2019 across U.S. states that expanded Medicaid and those that did not. Before 2014, both groups showed a similar upward trend in optimal starts.

Recent data suggest a reversal in this trend. We examined trends in US dialysis facility closures and associated facility- and neighborhood-level characteristics.STUDY DESIGNSerial cross-sectional study of dialysis facilities from 2018 through 2024.SETTING & PARTICIPANTSDialysis facilities in the United States.EXPOSURESCalendar year; census region; census tract social vulnerability index; rural or urban area designation; racial and ethnic composition; coronavirus-19 mortality; dialysis facility payer mix, size, and profit status.OUTCOMESNumber of dialysis facility closures; temporal change in number of facilities by census tract.ANALYTICAL APPROACHDialysis facilities listed in the Provider of Services data from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services were used to determine openings and closures by quarter. Geocoded dialysis facility data were linked to the American Community Survey, rural urban commuting area codes, and the United States Renal Data System to describe associated facility- and neighborhood-level characteristics of closed facilities, and of census tracts without any remaining dialysis facilities.RESULTS8343 unique dialysis facilities were identified across 7222 census tracts from 2018 through 2024. Annual opening-to-closure ratios were 8.9 (2018: 401 openings, 45 closures), 2.7 (2019: 293 openings, 105 closures), 4.3 (2020: 218 openings, 51 closures), 1.5 (2021: 171 openings, 111 closures), 0.6 (2022: 123 openings, 210 closures), 0.5 (2023: 94 openings, 207 closures), and 0.8 (2024: 56 openings,74 closures). Closures exceeded openings between fourth quarter, 2021 and first quarter, 2024 (n=500, 62.2% of all closures during study period). Closed facilities were smaller than facilities that remained open (median size 58 [25th, 75th percentile 34, 96] for closed versus 112 [66, 165] for open facilities). Closures were observed more frequently in rural versus urban areas (11.2% versus 9.3%, respectively), and among facilities located in the Midwest versus the West (10.8% versus 7.7%, respectively). Closed facilities had a modestly higher proportion of patients eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare-dual eligibility, a marker of economic disadvantage-than facilities that remained open (mean proportion of census dual eligible 36.1% versus 34.6%).LIMITATIONSLack of data on patient outcomes.CONCLUSIONSNationwide, an increasing number of US dialysis facilities closed between 2018 and 2024, with smaller facilities, and rural and Midwest communities disproportionately affected. The patient-level implications of this trend require further study.PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARYUntil recently, the number of dialysis facilities in the US was increasing, but this trend may have reversed in 2022.
