abstract：:The impact of obesity on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) population has not been elucidated, despite the impairment of HRQoL in the obese among general population. We hypothesized that the impact of obesity on HRQoL might be confounded by impaired renal function in CKD population...
