Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background
Increased malnutrition risk has been observed in more than 40% people on haemodialysis in Israel. It is not clear that this risk is homogeneously distributed among people with versus without diabetes.Objectives
To examine the influence of diabetes on malnutrition risk among people on haemodialysis.Methods
This cross-sectional study included a representative sample of 375 individuals on haemodialysis treated in hospital dialysis centres throughout Israel. Of these, 126 had diabetes. Dietary intake, biochemistry, anthropometric and hemodynamic measures were recorded. Malnutrition risk categories were defined: "minimal": body mass index (BMI) ≥23 kg/m2 and serum albumin ≥38 mmol/L; "mild": BMI <23 kg/m2 and albumin ≥38 mmol/L; "moderate": BMI ≥23 kg/m2 and albumin <38 mmol/L; "severe": BMI<23 k/m2 and serum albumin <38 mmol/L. These categories were dichotomized to "minimal" versus elevated malnutrition risk.Results
Despite greater BMI, elevated malnutrition risk was identified in 58.8% of individuals with versus 39.3% without diabetes. Adherence to International Society for Renal Nutrition and Metabolism nutrition guidelines was poor regardless of diabetes status. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, diabetes: OR 2.15; C-reactive protein (nmol/L): OR 1.02; delivered dialysis dose (Kt/V): OR 6.07; and haemoglobin (g/L): OR 0.79, predicted elevated malnutrition risk, even after controlling for age, sex and years on haemodialysis.Discussion
Individuals on haemodialysis who have diabetes have elevated malnutrition risk compared to those without diabetes despite greater BMI.

Project description:BackgroundIdentification of patients at risk for malnutrition is important for timely nutrition intervention to reduce morbidity and mortality.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to compare the sensitivity and specificity of the Nutrition Risk Screen (NRS) 2002 and the ThedaCare NRS to identify patients at risk for malnutrition.MethodsThe NRS 2002 and ThedaCare NRS were administered to 594 patients, aged 63 ± 16 years (mean ± SD), in the non-intensive care unit hospital setting. Risk for malnutrition and malnutrition diagnosis were confirmed with the 6 malnutrition clinical characteristics defined by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition and using the nutrition assessment that included the Nutrition Focused Physical Exam. Sensitivity, specificity, and κ coefficient were calculated.ResultsWhen compared with the NRS 2002, the ThedaCare NRS had higher sensitivity (98.8% vs 63.5%), indicating improved identification of patients at risk for malnutrition, but lower specificity (74.0% vs 93.4%), indicating that more patients at low risk for malnutrition were misclassified. ThedaCare NRS missed fewer patients at risk for malnutrition when compared with the NRS 2002. ThedaCare NRS had a higher κ coefficient when compared with the NRS 2002, indicating better agreement of results regardless of who administered the screen. The ThedaCare NRS required less time to complete when compared with the NRS 2002 (mean ± SE: ThedaCare, 17 ± 1 seconds; NRS 2002, 9 ± 1 minutes; P < .0001).ConclusionThe ThedaCare NRS improves the identification of patients at risk for malnutrition in the non-intensive care unit hospital setting. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02585245.

Project description:This study describes the distribution of glycosylated haemoglobin (Hb(A1c)) and glucose concentrations in the combined year 1 (2008-2009), year 2 (2009-2010) and year 3 (2010-2011) of the National Diet and Nutrition Survey (NDNS) rolling programme. The NDNS rolling programme is a nationally representative survey of food consumption, nutrient intakes and nutritional status of people aged 1.5 years and over living in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The study population comprised survey members who completed three or four days of dietary recording and who provided a blood sample. After excluding survey members with self-reported diabetes (n=25), there were 1016 results for HbA1c and 942 for glucose (not the same individuals in each case). Around 5.4% of men and 1.7% of women aged 19-64 years, and 5.1% of men and 5.9% of women aged ≥65 years had impaired fasting glucose (glucose concentrations 6.1-6.9 mmol/L). Over 20% of men aged ≥65 years had fasting glucose concentrations above the clinical cut-off for diabetes (≥7 mmol/L) compared to 2.1% of women of similar age (p=0.007). Similarly, 16.4% of men had Hb(A1c) concentrations ≥6.5%, compared to 1.5% of women (p=0.003). Children and teenagers had fasting glucose and Hb(A1c) values largely within the normal range. To conclude, this is the first study to provide data on the distribution of HbA1c and glucose concentrations in a nationally representative sample of the British population. The high prevalence of men aged ≥65 years with Hb(A1c) and glucose concentrations above the clinical cut-off of diabetes warrants further attention.

Project description:A retrospective analysis of the improvement in the health condition of patients undergoing hemodialysis was done to understand the important factors that can affect malnutrition in these patients. In this study, data from patients who underwent hemodialysis between 2010 and 2015 in a regional hospital in Yunlin County were collected from the Taiwan Society of Nephrology-Kidney Transplantation database. A total of 1049 medical records from 300 patients with age over 20 and underwent hemodialysis were collected for this study. A decision tree C5.0 and logistic regression were used to identify 40 independent variables, as well as the association of the dependent variable albumin. Then, the C5.0 decision tree, logistic regression, and support vector machine (SVM) methods were applied to find a combination of factors that contributed to malnutrition in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Predictive models were established. Finally, a receiver operating characteristic curve and confusion matrix was used to evaluate the standard of performance of these models. All analytical methods indicated that "age" was an important factor. In particular, the best predictive model was the SVM-model 4, with a training accuracy rate of 98.95% and test accuracy rate of 66.89%, identified that "age" and 15 other important factors were the most related to hemodialysis. The findings of this study can be used as a reference for clinical applications.

Project description:Background and aimNutrition impact symptoms (NIS) are common in cancer patients and the negative impacts on nutritional status indicate the need for research, diagnosis and nutritional intervention in order to reduce the risk of malnutrition. We aimed to verify the presence of malnutrition, the need for nutritional intervention, NIS and their influence on the nutritional status of surgical patients with cancer.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was carried out in a public tertiary hospital, from March 2017 to October 2019. Nutritional status, the need for nutritional intervention and NIS were assessed through the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) in the first 48 hours of hospital admission.ResultsAmong the 135 patients evaluated, 55.6% were elderly and 51.1% were male; patients had a median age of 62 years and a predominance of cancer located in the lower gastrointestinal tract (35.6%). Malnutrition and the need for nutritional intervention were identified in 60.0% and 90.4% of cases, respectively. The presence of three or more NIS was reported by 51.9% of patients. Significant differences in NIS were observed according to sex, PG-SGA classification and PG-SGA score. After logistic regression analysis, it was determined that the symptoms that increased the chances of malnutrition were anorexia, constipation, strange taste, mouth sores and others (depression, dental or financial problems).ConclusionMalnutrition, the need for nutritional intervention and the presence of three or more NIS were elevated in the patients evaluated. Malnutrition was associated with the presence of NIS, indicating the need for attention and care in antineoplastic treatment.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to assess the situational capacity for nutrition care delivery in the outpatient hemodialysis (HD) setting in Malaysia by evaluating dietitian accessibility, nutrition practices and patients' outcomes.MethodsA 17-item questionnaire was developed to assess nutrition practices and administered to dialysis managers of 150 HD centers, identified through the National Renal Registry. Nutritional outcomes of 4362 patients enabled crosscutting comparisons as per dietitian accessibility and center sector.ResultsDedicated dietitian (18%) and visiting/shared dietitian (14.7%) service availability was limited, with greatest accessibility at government centers (82.4%)?>?non-governmental organization (NGO) centers (26.7%)?>?private centers (15.1%). Nutritional monitoring varied across HD centers as per albumin (100%)?>?normalized protein catabolic rate (32.7%)?>?body mass index (BMI, 30.7%)?>?dietary intake (6.0%). Both sector and dietitian accessibility was not associated with achieving albumin ?40?g/L. However, NGO centers were 36% more likely (p?=?0.030) to achieve pre-dialysis serum creatinine ?884??mol/L compared to government centers, whilst centers with dedicated dietitian service were 29% less likely (p?=?0.017) to achieve pre-dialysis serum creatinine ?884??mol/L. In terms of BMI, private centers were 32% more likely (p?=?0.022) to achieve BMI???25.0?kg/m2 compared to government centers. Private centers were 62% less likely (p?<? 0.001) while NGO centers were 56% less likely (p?<? 0.001) to achieve serum phosphorus control compared to government centers. Patients from centers with a shared/visiting dietitian had 35% lower probability (p?<? 0.001) to achieve serum phosphorus levels below 1.78?mmol/L compared to centers without access to a dietitian.ConclusionsThere were clear discrepancies in nutritional care in Malaysian HD centers. Changes in stakeholder policy are required to ensure that dietitian service is available in Malaysian HD centers.

Project description:BackgroundIn China, the trend of the prevalence of nutrition risk and malnutrition among the patients in hospitals has changed dramatically in the past few years. The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of nutrition risk, undernutrition, and the application of nutrition support among hospitalized general surgery patients over a 7-year period from 2010 to 2017.MethodsA total of 810 consecutive inpatients who met the inclusion criteria upon admission and provided informed consent were recruited from March to December 2017. Nutrition risk was screened using the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 tool. All the data collected in 2017 were compared with the data collected in 2010.ResultsThe prevalence of undernutrition among the surgical patients in 2017 (12.8%) was lower than that in 2011 (15.5%) (P < .05), whereas the prevalence of nutrition risk in 2017 (42.6%) was higher than that in 2011 (30.4%) (P < .01). The application of nutrition support, including parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition, among the patients in 2017 was higher than that in 2010 (P < .05). In 2017, 70.7% of the patients who were at nutrition risk received nutrition support, whereas only 48.9% of patients at nutrition risk did in 2010 (P < .05). Moreover, 26.9% of patients without nutrition risk received nutrition support in 2017 compared with 18.0% of patients in 2010.ConclusionsThe nutrition statuses among surgical inpatients changed from 2010 to 2017. The prevalence of undernutrition was reduced, whereas the prevalence of nutrition risk increased. The application of nutrition support increased significantly, whereas inappropriate application of nutrition support still existed in our hospital. More attention should be paid to the nutrition-related issues of general surgery inpatients in the future.

Project description:Natriuretic peptides, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are mainly known as diagnostic markers for heart failure with high diagnostic and prognostic values in the general population. In patients who are undergoing hemodialysis (HD), changes in NT-proBNP can be related to noncardiac problems such as fluid overload, inflammation, or malnutrition and can also be influenced by the dialysis characteristics. The current review aimed to summarize findings from studies on the association between NT-proBNP and malnutrition in HD patients. Articles published after 2009 and over a ten-year period were considered for inclusion. We first briefly discuss the traditional functions of NT-proBNP, and after, we describe the functions of this prohormone by focusing on its relation with protein energy wasting (PEW) in HD patients. Mechanisms that could explain these relationships were also discussed. Overall, 7 studies in which the investigation of the relations between NT-proBNP and nutritional status in HD patients were among the main objects were taken into account. NT-proBNP levels correlated with several factors described in the 4 categories of markers indicative of PEW (body mass and composition, muscle mass, biochemical criteria, and dietary intakes) and/or were associated with PEW. Interactions between several parameters could be involved in the association between NT-proBNP and malnutrition with a strong role of weight status. NT-proBNP is elevated in HD patients and is associated with malnutrition. Nevertheless, the prognostic value of NT-proBNP on nutritional status should be evaluated.

Project description:Background & aimsPatients undergoing dialysis are less likely to develop immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Malnutrition is common in the dialysis population. However, whether malnutrition contributes to the impaired immunogenicity remains unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the association between nutritional status and SARS-CoV-2 vaccine response in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis.MethodsA total of 206 hemodialysis patients (mean age, 67 ± 13 years) without prior SARS-CoV-2 infection were examined for the primary outcome of seroconversion, defined as the detection of IgG antibodies (≥50 AU/mL) to the receptor-binding domain of the S1 spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 one month after a priming dose of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, an adenovirus-vectored vaccine. Nutritional status was assessed by using the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, an objective indicator of nutrition incorporating serum albumin, total cholesterol, and total lymphocyte count, as well as the subjective global assessment (SGA).ResultsOverall, 16.5% of patients were classified as malnourished, and 64.1% of patients were at risk for malnutrition based on the CONUT score. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG were the highest in patients with normal nutrition. In multivariate logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, comorbidities, and use of immunosuppressants, patients with malnutrition remained less likely to develop an antibody response than those with normal nutrition (odds ratio 0.23, 95% CI, 0.07-0.76). SGA was a significant predictor of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG seroconversion in univariate but not multivariate analyses.ConclusionsMalnutrition according to CONUT score is associated with impaired humoral responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Our results highlight the importance of incorporating nutritional assessment into routine dialysis care to identify patients at risk for suboptimal immune responses after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Further research is needed to determine whether nutritional intervention can improve immune responses in these vulnerable patients.

Project description:BackgroundUndernutrition is common in older hospitalised patients, and routine screening is advocated. It is unclear whether screening tools such as the Birmingham Nutrition Risk (BNR) score and the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) can successfully predict outcome in this patient group.MethodsConsecutive admissions to Medicine for the Elderly assessment wards in Dundee were assessed between mid-October 2003 and mid-January 2004. Body Mass Index (BMI), MUST and BNR scores were prospectively collected. Time to death was obtained from the Scottish Death Register and compared across strata of risk.Results115 patients were analysed, mean age 82.1 years. 39/115 (34%) were male. 20 patients were identified as high risk by both methods of screening. A further 10 were categorised high risk only with the Birmingham classification and 12 only with MUST.80/115 (67%) patients had died at the time of accessing death records. MUST category significantly predicted death (log rank test, p = 0.022). Neither BMI (log rank p = 0.37) or Birmingham nutrition score (log rank p = 0.35) predicted death.ConclusionThe MUST score, but not the BNR, is able to predict increased mortality in older hospitalised patients.

Project description:BackgroundMalnutrition and sarcopenia are frequently observed in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). To elucidate whether malnutrition is associated with sarcopenia in those cases, the relationship of nutritional status with sarcopenia was investigated.MethodsNutritional status was assessed using a nutritional risk index (NRI) developed for patients undergoing MHD. This retrospective cross-sectional study included 315 MHD patients (199 males, 116 females), who were divided into low-risk (score 0-7) and medium-/high-risk (score 8-13) groups. Sarcopenia and severe sarcopenia, along with low muscle mass, low muscle strength, and low physical performance were defined using the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia 2019 criteria.ResultsThe median NRI score was 5.0, while the prevalence of medium-/high-risk cases among the patients was 31.1%. Additionally, the rates of those with low muscle mass, low muscle strength, and low physical performance were 55.9, 60.6, and 31.4%, respectively, while those of sarcopenia and severe sarcopenia were 44.1 and 20.0%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analyses revealed a significant (P < 0.001) association of NRI score with sarcopenia [odds ratio (OR) 1.255, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.143-1.377] and severe sarcopenia (OR 1.257, 95% CI 1.122-1.407), as well as low muscle mass (OR 1.260, 95% CI 1.157-1.374), low muscle strength (OR 1.310, 95% CI 1.178-1.457), and low physical performance (OR 1.216, 95% CI 1.104-1.339). Furthermore, medium-/high-risk status showed a significant (P < 0.05) association with sarcopenia (OR 2.960, 95% CI 1.623-5.401) and severe sarcopenia (OR 2.241, 95% CI 1.151-4.362), as well as low muscle mass (OR 2.141, 95% CI 1.219-3.760), low muscle strength (OR 7.665, 95% CI 3.438-17.091), and low physical performance (OR 2.570, 95% CI 1.401-4.716).ConclusionsThese results suggest that malnutrition contributes to sarcopenia/severe sarcopenia in MHD patients by reducing muscle mass and strength, and physical performance.
