Abstract :
Dear Editor, We read the article “Self-esteem in Greek Dialysis Patients: the Contribution of Health Locus of Control” written by Theofilou, with great enthusiasm. She investigated the relationship between health locus of control (LOC) and selfesteem among 144 Greek patients undergoing renal replacement therapy (84 on hemodialysis and the other 60 on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis).
