The underlying neural mechanisms of the memory deficits in end-stage renal disease patients with dialysis treatment are poorly understood. Here we analyzed the resting-state brain activity changes and the related memory improvement by using mALFF and ReHo methods before dialysis (T1_pre-dialysis) and after 24 hours (T2_{post-dialysis}). The results indicated that regional spontaneous activity changes of the DLPFC were related with memory improvement after a single dialysis treatment, which may provide insight into the effect of hemodialysis on changes of brain function and cognitive impairments.
