Inverse association of fat mass, but not lean mass, with glycated albumin in hemodialysis patients with or without diabetes mellitus

Inverse association of fat mass, but not lean mass, with glycated albumin in hemodialysis patients with or without diabetes mellitus

Background: Glycated albumin (GA), which is independent of anemia and/or use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, might provide a more precise measure than glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in hemodialysis patients.
