    With interest, we read the article by Sidy Secket et al. on the mineral and bone disease in black African hemodialysis patients: A report from Senegal. The authors evaluated 118 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients under hemodialysis and showed that chronic kidney disease related mineral and bone disease (CKD-MBD) are frequent in Senegalese hemodialysis patients with prevalence of 66.9 % and hyperparathyroidism is the most commonplace disorder followed by adynamic bone disease and osteomalacia (1).
