Background: The assessment of body composition during the course of treatment of hemodialysis patients is crucial for optimal treatment. We intended to assess the diagnostic performance of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), which could be used at the bedside in dialysis wards, and compare it with the results of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 43 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) after hemodialysis sessions underwent direct segmental multi-frequency BIA …
