Article Synopsis
- Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, leading to increased health risks; the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) effectively links malnutrition to health outcomes such as hospitalization and mortality.
- The study of 100 CKD patients revealed a 60% prevalence of malnutrition, with a significant correlation between MIS and various health parameters, including BMI and kidney function indicators.
- Identifying malnutrition and inflammation early in CKD can help target interventions, improving the quality of life for affected individuals.
