Status of Nutrition In Hemodialysis Patients Survey (SNIPS): Malnutrition risk by diabetes status.

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:BackgroundDiabetes disproportionately affects minorities and those with low socioeconomic status (SES) in the United States, and differences in behavioral lifestyles are largely responsible for the unequal distribution of diabetes among different groups.MethodsWith data of 9,969 participants collected in the 2007-2008 and 2009-2010 cycles of the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), this study examined several mediators and their mediating effects in the connection between SES and the risk of diabetes. The SES is assessed by the income-to-poverty ratio (IPR), education level, and employment status. For the mediation analysis, we used health-related behaviors as mediators (smoking, alcohol use, consumption of green vegetables and fruits, physical activity and sedentary time, health insurance, and healthcare). In this study, the structural equation model was utilized to evaluate the mediating effects of behavioral lifestyle as a mediator in the relationship between SES and diabetes.ResultsA total of 9,969 participants were included in this study. We found a negative nonlinear association between IPR and diabetes risk (Poverall < 0.001; Pnon-linear = 0.46), which was independent of the majority of known or suspected risk factors and confounding variables (gender, age, race). Participants with lower SES had higher risk of diabetes compared with those with higher SES. In mediating analysis, we found alcohol intake (OR = 0.996), physical activity (OR = 0.993), health insurance (OR = 0.998), and healthcare (OR = 1.002) mediated the IPR-diabetes association. But in the relationship between education status and diabetes, the mediation effect of alcohol intake (OR = 0.995), physical activity (OR = 0.991), and health care (OR = 1.008) were obvious. Likewise, alcohol intake (OR = 0.996), fruit intake (OR = 0.998), and health care (OR = 0.975) were important mediators in the association between employment status and diabetes.ConclusionThis study provides critical insights on the link between SES and diabetes. Our results highlight that poor health-related behaviors and limited access to healthcare are important pathways for increased diabetes risk related to those with low SES, particularly among Mexican Americans and males. They should be top priorities for agencies and healthcare providers to develop behavior-related interventions to reduce inequalities in diabetes risk.

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.
