Description

Maryam Emadzadeh and co-authors published this 2025 study comparing life quality across three kidney treatments in Iran. People whose kidneys have failed must choose dialysis by machine, dialysis through the belly, or a transplant. Each path burdens body and mind in its own way, and local data on those burdens were thin.

The study covered 215 patients in Mashhad: 66 on machine dialysis, 70 on belly dialysis, and 79 with transplants. All filled in surveys on quality of life, depression, anxiety, problem solving, and social support. Transplant patients were younger and scored higher in most areas of the quality-of-life survey. The comparison helps counsel patients weighing the three paths.
