“…Approximately 5 to 10 million people die due to a lack of access to kidney replacement therapy (KRT-dialysis or kidney transplantation) or acute kidney injury every year and there is extreme disparities in the provision of KRT around the world. 1 SA and a large part of SEA despite representing a majority of the global population lie below the global standards in terms of economy and standards of living. All SA countries in our study belong to either low-income (LI) or lower-middle-income (LMI) group.…”
