Abstract

Background: Insulin resistance (IR) is a prevalent metabolic abnormality in children with end-stage renal disease(ESRD) receiving hemodialysis (HD). Relative fat mass (RFM), an emerging anthropometric measure, is increasinglyrecognized as a sensitive indicator of adiposity, potentially more accurate than traditional indices like BMI
