This study showed that hemoglobin ≥11 g/dL is associated with better survival in hemodialysis patients without diabetes but not in those with diabetes. These differences need to be further explored in other countries and settings. An individualization of the hemoglobin target level might be necessary to improve patients' outcomes.
