Multivariate logistic regression model for the risk factors affecting the use of CVC at the initial HD.

Independent variable ()	B	SE	Wald value	value	OR (95% CI)
Age	1.574	0.402	15.357		4.827 (2.197~10.607)
CGN	0.942	0.412	5.224	0.022	2.565 (1.144~5.753)
eGFR	0.826	0.351	5.543	0.019	2.283 (1.148~4.540)

CGN: chronic glomerulonephritis; model is adjusted for age, CGN, eGFR. Age: (age ≤70 years old) = 0; (age >70 years old) = 1; CGN: when primary disease is not CGN = 0, when primary disease is CGN = 1; eGFR:(eGFR ≥8.5 mL/min/1.73 m²) = 0, (eGFR <8.5 mL/min/1.73 m²) = 1.
