Background And Objectives: To describe nutritional status and inflammation of elderly patients with chronic kidney disease and to confirm the association between a Malnutrition-Inflammation Score and physical func-tion and functional disability.
Methods And Study Design: A total of 221 chronic kidney disease patients (aged ≥60 years) were included. A Malnutrition-Inflammation Score was used to assess malnutrition and inflammation. Physical function was assessed using the SF-12. Functional status was evaluated using basic activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living.
Results: Thirty percent of participants had a Malnutrition-Inflammation Score ≥6, which denoted poor nutritional status. Participants with a Malnutrition-Inflammation Score ≥6 had decreased concentration of hemoglobin, albumin, prealbumin, handgrip strength and walking speed and increased concentration of inflammatory markers, including CRP, IL-6 and fibrinogen. Physical function and physical component summary were lower and basic activities of daily living dependence and instrumental activities of daily living dependence were higher among patients with higher Malnutrition-Inflammation Score than those with a lower Malnutrition-Inflammation Score. The Malnutrition-Inflammation Score was an independent risk factor for physical function and instrumental activities of daily living dependence.
Conclusions: The elderly chronic kidney disease patients with a high Malnutrition-Inflammation Score had a decreased physical function and an increased risk of functional instrumental activities of daily living dependence.

Malnutrition is prevalent among hemodialysis patients, negatively impacting their quality of life (QoL) and chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP). This study investigates the association between the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) and CKD-aP, as well as QoL, in hemodialysis patients. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 479 HD patients (279 males and 200 females) referred to eight dialysis centers.

Introduction: Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is highly prevalent among patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD), and it has been proposed that oxidative stress (OS) may contribute to its pathogenesis. This study was an attempt to determine the association between the presence of PEW and OS levels in PD patients.
Methods: This analytical cross-sectional study involved 62 clinically stable PD patients aged ≥ 18 years, between September 2017 and July 2018.

Background And Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of intradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN) on different nutritional outcomes.
Methods: This was a retrospective analysis for a "routinely collected data bank" in a multicenter cohort, conducted on consecutive malnourished or at-risk of malnutrition patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis who underwent IDPN with a three-in-one parenteral nutrition formula for a period ≥ 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was the mean change in the malnutrition inflammation score (MIS) score between baseline and the last follow-up visit on IDPN.

The malnutrition-inflammation score (MIS) is a practical and accessible tool for evaluating protein energy wasting (PEW) in patients on dialysis. However, the severity of PEW at each stage of chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially with late dialysis initiation, is unclear. We evaluated the MIS of 3659 patients with CKD stages 1-5 and the changes in their MIS results at baseline and at the time before dialysis initiation.

Introduction: Depression is a common psychiatric problem in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Recent studies have begun to explore the relationship between body composition and depression. Phase angle (PhA), a core parameter for assessing body composition, has been observed to be associated with frailty and cognitive dysfunction.
