Table 1 Vaccination coverage as a marker of health-system preparedness at dialysis initiation[9,23,24,29,30]

Preventive indicator	Association with vaccination	Systems interpretation
Prior nephrology consultation	Strong positive association	Longitudinal care enables prevention
Permanent vascular access	More frequent in vaccinated patients	Anticipatory planning
Pre-transplant evaluation	High vaccination uptake	Structured preventive workflow
Emergency dialysis initiation	Predominant among unvaccinated patients	Crisis-driven care
TB burden at initiation	High prevalence	Need for integrated infection prevention

TB: Tuberculosis.
