Abstract
We read with great interest the article by Baris Afsar entitled "The relationship between erythropoietin resistance and antibody response to hepatitis B vaccine in hemodialysis patients" published in your valuable journal. He analyzed the relationship between anti-HBs response and erythropoietin (EPO) resistance among patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis and demonstrated that EPO resistance is negatively associated with both anti-HBs levels and seroconversion status among these patients (1).
