Post transplantation anaemia and persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism were identified in 27.9% and 30.8% of the patients, respectively; 67.5% of the participants were overweight or obese. In established confounder adjusted analysis, haemoglobin (partial R=− 0.394, p=0.01) and parathyroid hormone concentrations (partial R=0.382, p=0.02) were associated with E/e’. In multivariable analysis, haemoglobin (partial R=− 0.278, p=0.01) and parathyroid levels (partial R=0.324, p=0.04) were independently associated with E/e’. Waist–height ratio (partial R=− 0.526, p=0.001 and partial R=− 0.355, p=0.03), waist circumference (partial R=− 0.433, p=0.008 and partial R=− 0.393, p=0.02) and body mass index (partial R=− 0.332, p=0.04 and partial R=− 0.489, p=0.002) were associated with both e’ and E/A, respectively, in established confounder adjusted analysis. The haemoglobin-E/e’ (partial R=− 0.422, p=0.02), parathyroid hormone-E/e’ (partial R=0.434, p=0.03), waist–height ratio-e’ (partial R=− 0.497, p=0.007) and body mass index-E/A (partial R=− 0.386, p=0.04) relationships remained consistent after additional adjustment for left ventricular mass index and cardiac preload and afterload measures.Conclusion: Haemoglobin and parathyroid hormone concentrations as well as adiposity measures are independently associated with diastolic function in kidney transplant recipients. Whether adequate management of post transplantation anaemia, persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism and excess adiposity can prevent the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in kidney transplant recipients merits further investigation.Keywords: haemoglobin, parathyroid hormone, obesity, diastolic function, kidney transplantation
