Introduction: Phase angle (PhA), derived from bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), is the angle of vector determined by the body’s resistance and reactance. It indicates cellular integrity and hydration status. Though extracellular volume excess was associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) pr...
