Two groups of patients were included; hemodialysis patients and patients with transplanted kidneys.Methods: Demographic and clinical history, and lab data were collected. A total of 108 patients were included in this study with a mean age of 52.3 (±16.29) years. Study groups included 61 (56.5%) dialysis patients, and 47 (43.5%) patients with transplanted kidneys.Results: Upon comparing the prevalence of metabolic syndrome between the two study groups, transplant patients had significantly lower prevalence of metabolic syndrome (34%) compared to that of metabolic syndrome in patients on dialysis (55.7%; P=0.016).Conclusion: As metabolic syndrome plays an important role in the pathology of elderly patients, especially those with transplanted kidneys, such findings indicate the need for close monitoring of kidney transplant patients for the manifestations of metabolic syndrome.Keywords: metabolic syndrome, renal transplant, chronic kidney disease, elderlyAlshelleh SAlAwwa IOweis AAlRyalat SAAl-Essa MSaeed IAlhawari HHAlzoubi KHDove Medical PressarticleMetabolic syndromerenal transplantchronic kidney diseaseelderlySpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 12, Pp 575-579 (2019)
