Post-renal transplant metabolic acidosis: A neglected entity

Abstract

= 0.298). There is a high prevalence of metabolic acidosis in RTRs with type I RTA being most common subtype. Screening of RTRs on a regular basis is a feasible approach for early diagnosis and intervention. However, prospective studies are needed to demonstrate the effect of acidosis on graft survival and benefit of bicarbonate therapy in RTRs.
