Synchrony of biomarker variability indicates a critical transition: Application to mortality prediction in hemodialysis

Summary: Critical transition theory suggests that complex systems should experience increased temporal variability just before abrupt state changes. We tested this hypothesis in 763 patients on long-term hemodialysis, using 11 biomarkers collected every two weeks and all-cause mortality as a proxy f...
