  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the prevalence, and determine factors associated with metabolic syndrome risk among kidney transplantation recipients. This study data were collected by means of retrospective chart reviews for 111 kidney recipients at an organ transplantation center in South Korea. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test or chi-squared test, and Pearson's correlation or Point biserial correlation. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in our subjects was 65.8%.
