Abstract

Background and Aim. Prevalence of anemia is higher in diabetic patients with microalbuminuria than those with normoalbuminuria despite the absence of significant renal impairment. The aim of this study was to investigate whether there was a relationship between microalbuminuria and anemia in renal transplant recipients (RTRs).
