Patients who had renal transplants were excluded. The glomerular filtration rate was estimated by the MDRD4-IDMS formula.</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An essential section of the registry refers to the therapeutic option chosen after the patient and his/her family had received detailed information regarding all the existing methods (haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, renal transplant and conservative treatment). The indication for conservative treatment was always agreed upon with the patient and his/her family, and this decision was registered in his/her medical record and in the issued clinical report. In these cases, the main reason for which a patient was not considered to be a candidate for renal replacement therapy was also requested, with one of the following five possibilities to be chosen: acute disease not curable by dialysis or renal transplant influencing short-term survival, functional deterioration, gait difficulties, cognitive deficit-significant psychiatric disorder, or the patient's decision.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The date of inclusion in the registry is the date of the first visit the patient made to the Nephrology Service in the period of time under analysis, and the clinical and analytical data correspond to that moment. The follow-up period for each patient begins on the date of inclusion and ends on the date the patient passed away or on the day the study finalised (30/6/2014). Patients who started renal replacement therapy were not ruled out at the beginning of it.</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">To ensure that the population sample was complete, we asked the Biochemistry Department for a correspondence of all the analysis requests submitted by the Nephrology Service between 1/7/2013 and 30/6/2014, in which the glomerular filtration rate was under 15<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ml/min/1.73<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>. After ruling out transplant patients and cases of acute renal failure or of reversible deterioration in renal function in patients with CRD, all stage-5 CRD cases were identified and this population was compared to the one from the existing registry.

The gait FAC scale has six categories (0: patient cannot walk; 1: patient walks with difficulty held by another person; 2: patient needs support from another person to walk; 3: patient can walk only under supervision; 4: patient can walk independently on level ground, but requires help on stairs; 5: patient can walk independently anywhere). If the score on the FAC scale is between 0 and 1, it is considered that the patient has acute gait abnormalities, if the score is between 2 and 3, the disorder is considered moderate, and if the score is between 4 and 5, it is considered that there are no gait abnormalities or that they are mild.</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The patients who were assigned conservative treatment were given the option to continue the follow-up at the chronic renal disease division of the Nephrology Service or at the Palliative Care Unit.

It is possible that the majority of these last cases were not referred to the Nephrology Service because their doctors did not consider them to be candidates for renal replacement therapy, and if they had been taken into account they would have increased the rate of patients treated conservatively and we would have come closer to the theoretical number.</p><p id="par0125" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In our series, as well as in the rest of the series published,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,9,10,13,19</span></a> and as expected, patients treated conservatively are characterised as being elderly patients with comorbility as compared to the patients who chose the various options for renal replacement therapy.
