Objectives: Dynapenia and sarcopenia are related to increased morbidity and mortality in the general population. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes sarcopenia and dynapenia with different mechanisms. The aim of this study is to compare the muscle parameters in renal transplant recipients to CKD patients and patients without kidney disease and assess their associations with serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels.
