Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have glucometabolic disturbances resulting in a high prevalence of prediabetes. The underlying pathophysiology remains unclear, but may prove important for the strategies employed to prevent progression to overt diabetes. Meal-induced release of the insulinotropic gut-derived incretin hormones and pancreatic hormones play a critical role in the maintenance of a normal postprandial glucose tolerance.
