Background: It is known that patients on hemodialysis (HD) are prone to developing zinc deficiency due removal of by HD, inadequate dietary intake, and reduced gastrointestinal absorption. However, the prevalence in peritoneal dialysis (PD) has not been well established. Methods: Serum levels were compared between 47 PD HD matched for age, sex, duration dialysis. A serum level < 60 μg/dL was defined as clinical a 60–80 subclinical deficiency. The associated factors determined both groups....
