However, PD patients can absorb glucose from the dialysate and loss of muscle mass may be overlooked by fat weight gain. As such, we wished to review changes in body composition in prevalent PD patients. We compared changes in body composition measured by dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in adult PD patients, and calculated glucose absorption based on 24-h collections of PD dialysate. Overall, 73 prevalent P
