Abstract Summary End stage kidney disease is loss of renal function requiring treatment with any form of chronic dialysis or transplantation. The most common cause of renal failure in many countries is diabetes mellitus. All patients with ESKD on regular haemodialysis will have renal bone disease by the time they require dialysis, though of varying severity. Therefore, renal bone disease not improved by starting dialysis and may instead progress. The aim of our study is to assess the relation between glycaemic control and level of PTH in patients with diabetes and end stage kidney disease on maintenance haemodialysis. This study was conducted at dialysis units in Tanta University Hospital & Kafr El-Sheikh General Hospital. This study included 75 adult patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). |
