Prevalence rate of proteinuria and metabolic acidosis among kidney transplant recipients in a tertiary teaching hospital and its relationship to dietary intake
Background. Proteinuria and metabolic acidosis adversely affect long term renal allograft out-come and are highly prevalent in reported studies. The role of dietary intake in influencing proteinuria and metabolic acidosis remained uncertain. This study aims to determine the prevalence rate of protei...

A total of 204 KTRs were recruited with median age of 48 years (interquartile range IQR], 18 years); male to female ratio was 61:39. A total of 79.9% (n = 163) were living related kidney transplants.
