Core Tip	In this study, significant number of kidney transplant patients developed post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) in one year follow up. This is first study from tropical region showing statistically significant association of vitamin D deficiency and PTDM. This finding is important since PTDM adversely effects graft survival and is an independent predictor of adverse cardiovascular events. It will be interesting to study effect of vitamin D replacement on PTDM which may potentially reduce the morbidity associated with PTDM.
