Glycemic Patterns and Factors Associated with Post-Hemodialysis Hyperglycemia among End-Stage Renal Disease Patients undergoing Maintenance Hemodialysis

Chronic and post-prandial hyperglycemia are independent risk factors for diabetic complications. Glycemic patterns among hemodialysis end-stage-renal-disease (ESRD) differ as glucose metabolism changes with declining kidney function with more pronounced glycemic fluctuations. The objectives of this study are to determine glycemic patterns on hemodialysis days, the magnitude of post-hemodialysis rebound hyperglycemia (PHH) and their associated...
