Core Tip	This study examined the association between quality of life (QoL) and negative emotional states (depression, anxiety, and stress) in patients receiving end-stage renal replacement therapy [hemodialysis (HD) and transplantation (TX)] in Saudi Arabia. Using the 36-item Short Form Survey and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale, we discovered significant inverse correlations between QoL and emotional distress. High anxiety and lower educational levels have a negative impact on the physical component of QoL in HD patients, while older age and elevated stress levels affect the mental component in patients with TX.
