In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

End-stage renal disease patients needs a functional vascular access to receive hemodialysis and prolong their lives. Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is priority consideration for hemodialysis, which is a connecting a superficial vein to a nearby artery and allowing this vein to enlarge and increase in internal diameter under arterial circulation. Unfortunately, 30-50% of fistulae fail to mature. Vascular calcification and stenosis were considered for early failure. The perivascular fat of artery can be predicted successful AVF maturation. However, Few previous studies have compared AVF maturation between perivascular the fat of cephalic vein or removal during the AVF surgery. This study evaluated whether the effect of AVF inflammation and preexisting vascular fibrosis is associated to perivascular the fat of cephalic vein. Investigators will also verify inflammation by analysis of blood and

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age of 20 and older adult patients. 2. preoperatively clinical and ultrasound assessment of the arm vessels are visible for the creation of a native HDAVF that include๏ผšthe augmented diameters of the veins is \> 2.0 mm and the diameter of the radial artery is\> 2.0 mm. Besides, there is no obvious stenosis of vessels in the forearm. Exclusion Criteria: 1. The patient refused to join the study 2. serious heart failure (Physicians identify insufficient cardiac output that may affect sacral blood flow development after surgery) 3. Unconsciousness 4.
