Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT SGLT2 inhibitors reduce risk of kidney progression, AKI, and cardiovascular disease, but the mechanisms of benefit are incompletely understood. Bioimpedance spectroscopy can estimate body water and fat mass. One quarter of the EMPA-KIDNEY bioimpedance substudy CKD population had clinically significant levels of bioimpedance-derived "Fluid Overload" at recruitment. Empagliflozin induced a prompt and sustained reduction in "Fluid Overload," irrespective of sex, diabetes, and baseline N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide or eGFR. No significant effect on bioimpedance-derived fat mass was observed. The effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on body water may be one of the contributing mechanisms by which they mediate effects on cardiovascular risk. BACKGROUND CKD is associated with fluid excess that can be estimated by bioimpedance spectroscopy. We aimed to assess effects of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition on bioimpedance-derived "Fluid Overload" and adiposity in a CKD population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY was a double-blind placebo-controlled trial of empagliflozin 10 mg once daily in patients with CKD at risk of progression. In a substudy, bioimpedance measurements were added to the main trial procedures at randomization and at 2- and 18-month follow-up visits. The substudy's primary outcome was the study-average difference in absolute "Fluid Overload" (an estimate of excess extracellular water) analyzed using a mixed model repeated measures approach. RESULTS The 660 substudy participants were broadly representative of the 6609-participant trial population. Substudy mean baseline absolute "Fluid Overload" was 0.4±1.7 L. Compared with placebo, the overall mean absolute "Fluid Overload" difference among those allocated empagliflozin was -0.24 L (95% confidence interval [CI], -0.38 to -0.11), with similar sized differences at 2 and 18 months, and in prespecified subgroups. Total body water differences comprised between-group differences in extracellular water of -0.49 L (95% CI, -0.69 to -0.30, including the -0.24 L "Fluid Overload" difference) and a -0.30 L (95% CI, -0.57 to -0.03) difference in intracellular water. There was no significant effect of empagliflozin on bioimpedance-derived adipose tissue mass (-0.28 kg [95% CI, -1.41 to 0.85]). The between-group difference in weight was -0.7 kg (95% CI, -1.3 to -0.1). CONCLUSIONS In a broad range of patients with CKD, empagliflozin resulted in a sustained reduction in a bioimpedance-derived estimate of fluid overload, with no statistically significant effect on fat mass.

Abstract
Key Points Ultrafiltration (UF) is a key component of clinical peritoneal dialysis prescription, but the traditional method to assess UF is hampered by large inaccuracies. Here we propose a novel method, based on a computational model and on a single dialysate sodium measurement, to accurately estimate UF and osmotic conductance to glucose in patients on peritoneal dialysis. Background Volume overload is highly prevalent among patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD), contributes to hypertension, and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events and death in this population. As a result, optimizing peritoneal ultrafiltration (UF) is a key component of high-quality dialysis prescription. Osmotic conductance to glucose (OCG) reflects the water transport properties of the peritoneum, but measuring it requires an accurate quantification of UF, which is often difficult to obtain because of variability in catheter patency and peritoneal residual volume. Methods In this study, we derived a new mathematical model for estimating UF during PD, on the basis of sodium sieving, using a single measure of dialysate sodium concentration. The model was validated experimentally in a rat model of PD, using dialysis fluid with two different sodium concentrations (125 and 134 mmol/L) and three glucose strengths (1.5%, 2.3%, and 4.25%). Then, the same model was tested in a cohort of PD patients to predict UF. Results In experimental and clinical conditions, the sodium-based estimation of UF rate correlated with UF rate measurements on the basis of volumetry and albumin dilution, with a R 2 =0.35 and R 2 =0.76, respectively. UF on the basis of sodium sieving was also successfully used to calculate OCG in the clinical cohort, with a Pearson r of 0.77. Conclusions Using the novel mathematical models in this study, the sodium dip can be used to accurately estimate OCG, and therefore, it is a promising measurement method for future clinical use.

Abstract
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is proposed as an alternative for glycemic assessment in peritoneal dialysis, but volume overload and anemia may affect sensor accuracy. This is an exploratory analysis of a study of Guardian Connect™ with Guardian Sensor™ 3 in 30 participants with diabetes on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) (age [mean ± standard deviation] 64.7 ± 5.6 years, 23 men, body mass index [BMI] 25.4 ± 3.9 kg/m2, blood hemoglobin [Hb] 10.7 ± 1.3 g/dL). The mean absolute relative difference (MARD) was calculated between paired sensor and YSI 2300 STAT venous glucose readings (n = 941) during an 8-h in-clinic session with glucose challenge. Body composition was evaluated using bioimpedance. The overall MARD was 10.4% (95% confidence interval 9.6-11.7). There were no correlations between BMI, extracellular water, relative hydration index, and lean or fat mass with MARD. No correlations were observed between MARD and Hb (r = 0.016, P > 0.05). In summary, this real-time CGM demonstrated good accuracy in CAPD with minimal influence from body composition and anemia.

Abstract
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) has been extensively applied in nutritional assessments on the general population, and it is recommended in establishing the diagnosis of malnutrition and sarcopenia. The bioimpedance technique has become a promising modality through which to measure the whole-body composition in dialysis patients, where the presence of subclinical volume overload and sarcopenic obesity may be overlooked by assessing body weight alone. In the past two decades, bioimpedance devices have evolved from applying a single frequency to a range of frequencies (bioimpedance spectroscopy, BIS), in which the latter is incorporated with a three-compartment model that allows for the simultaneous measurement of the volume of overhydration, adipose tissue mass (ATM), and lean tissue mass (LTM). However, clinicians should be aware of common potential limitations, such as the adoption of population-specific prediction equations in some BIA devices. Inherent prediction error does exist in the bioimpedance technique, but the extent to which this error becomes clinically significant remains to be determined. Importantly, reduction in LTM has been associated with increased risk of frailty, hospitalization, and mortality in dialysis patients, whereas the prognostic value of ATM remains debatable. Further studies are needed to determine whether modifications of bioimpedance-derived body composition parameters through nutrition intervention can result in clinical benefits.

Abstract
Body composition measurement plays an important role in the nutritional diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In the past 30 years, the detection of body composition based on bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) has been widely used and explored in a variety of diseases. With the development of technology, bioelectrical impedance analysis has gradually developed from single-frequency BIA (SF-BIA) to multi-frequency BIA (multi-frequency BIA, MF-BIA) and over a range of frequencies (bioimpedance spectroscopy, BIS). As the clinical significance of nutrition management in chronic kidney disease has gradually become prominent, body composition measurement by BIA has been favored by nephrologists and nutritionists. In the past 20 years, there have been many studies on the application of BIA in patients with CKD. This review describes and summarizes the latest research results of BIA in nutritional management of patients with CKD including pre-dialysis, hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and kidney transplantation, in order to provide reference for the application and research of BIA in nutritional management of chronic kidney disease in the future.

Bio-impedance spectroscopy added to a fluid management protocol does not improve preservation of residual kidney function in incident hemodialysis patients in a randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
Avoiding excessive dialysis-associated volume depletion may help preserve residual kidney function (RKF). To establish whether knowledge of the estimated normally hydrated weight from bioimpedance measurements (BI-NHW) when setting the post-hemodialysis target weight (TW) might mitigate rate of loss of RKF, we undertook an open label, randomized controlled trial in incident patients receiving HD, with clinicians and patients blinded to bioimpedance readings in controls. A total of 439 patients with over 500 ml urine/day or residual GFR exceeding 3 ml/min/1.73m2 were recruited from 34 United Kingdom centers and randomized 1:1, stratified by center. Fluid assessments were made for up to 24 months using a standardized proforma in both groups, supplemented by availability of BI-NHW in the intervention group. Primary outcome was time to anuria, analyzed using competing-risk survival models adjusted for baseline characteristics, by intention to treat. Secondary outcomes included rate of RKF decline (mean urea and creatinine clearance), blood pressure and patient-reported outcomes. There were no group differences in cause-specific hazard rates of anuria (0.751; 95% confidence interval (0.459, 1.229)) or sub-distribution hazard rates (0.742 (0.453, 1.215)). RKF decline was markedly slower than anticipated, pooled linear rates in year 1: -0.178 (-0.196, -0.159)), year 2: -0.061 (-0.086, -0.036)) ml/min/1.73m2/month. Blood pressure and patient-reported outcomes did not differ by group. The mean difference agreement between TW and BI-NHW was similar for both groups, Bioimpedance: -0.04 kg; Control: -0.25 kg. Thus, use of a standardized clinical protocol for fluid assessment when setting TW is associated with excellent preservation of RKF. Hence, bioimpedance measurements are not necessary to achieve this.

Abstract
The peritoneal equilibration test (PET), first described in 1987, is a semiquantitative assessment of peritoneal transfer characteristics in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. It is typically performed as a 4-h exchange using 2.27/2.5% dextrose dialysate with serial measurements of blood and dialysate creatinine, urea, and glucose concentrations. The percentage absorption of glucose and D/P creatinine ratio are used to determine peritoneal solute transfer rates. It is used to both help guide peritoneal dialysis prescriptions and to prognosticate. There are several derivative tests which have been described in the literature. In this review, we describe the original PET, the various iterations of the PET, the information gleaned, and the use in the setting of poor solute clearance and in the diagnosis of membrane dysfunction, and limitations of the PET.

Abstract
A healthy and functional peritoneal membrane is key to achieve sufficient ultrafiltration and to restore fluid balance, a major component of high-quality prescription in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD). Variability in membrane function at the start of PD or changes over time on treatment influence dialysis prescription and outcomes, and dysfunction of the peritoneal membrane contributes to fluid overload and associated complications. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the structure, function and pathophysiology of the peritoneal membrane with a focus on clinical implications for patient-centered care. We also discuss the molecular and genetic mechanisms of solute and water transport across the peritoneal membrane, including the role of aquaporin water channels in crystalloid vs. colloid osmosis; why and how to assess membrane function using peritoneal equilibration tests; the etiologies of membrane dysfunction and their specific management; and the impact of genetic variation on membrane function and outcomes in patients treated with PD. This review also identifies the gaps in current knowledge and perspectives for future research to improve our understanding of the peritoneal membrane and, ultimately, to improve the care of patients treated with PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid overload causes excessive systemic vasoconstriction and decreased perfusion of peripheral tissues, leading to abnormalities in cardiopulmonary physiological functions. Prolonged fluid overload caused by inadequate hemodialysis may cause heart dilatation, left ventricular hypertrophy, hypertension, and a decrease in coronary reserves, which later will develop into coronary ischemia, leading to increased morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Endothelial dysfunction plays a role in excessive vasoconstriction on fluid overload. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) are used as parameters of fluid overload and endothelial dysfunction, respectively. This study is conducted to describe the relationship between fluid overload with endothelial dysfunction. METHOD This study is a cross-sectional study of kidney failure patients who underwent hemodialysis twice weekly for at least three months. BNP and ADMA were used as parameters for fluid overload and taken prior to hemodialysis. RESULT From 126 subjects, the proportion with fluid overload (BNP>356 pg/ml) was found to be 64.3% with the median age of subjects being 52 years (47-62). There was 47.6% population with endothelial dysfunction (ADMA>100 ng/ml). Presumptive causes of primary chronic kidney disease (CKD) were hypertension (38.9%), diabetes mellitus (DM) (28.6%), and glomerulonephritis (21.4%). There was no significant association between fluid overload and endothelial dysfunction (PR=1,042, p=0.832 CI 95%=0.714-1.521). CONCLUSION There was no relationship between fluid overload and endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioimpedance analysis (BIA) has been demonstrated to add accuracy to nutritional and volume status assessments in dialysis (HD) patients. AIM to describe a sample of dialysis patients from a single center on their demographics and BIA of volume distribution and nutritional status, and mortality during 12-month follow-up. METHODS prospective observational cohort study to evaluate vintage HD patients with single-frequency BIA. RESULTS we evaluated 82 patients, 29% over 65 years old. Elderly patients had higher ECW/TBW (0.51 vs. 0.44, p < 0.0001), and narrower phase angle (PhA) (4.9 vs. 6.4º, p < 0.0001). Fifteen patients (18.2%) died during follow-up, eight (53%) were elderly. Death was associated with age (62.6 vs. 50.2 years, p = 0.012), post-HD PhA (4.8 vs. 6.2º, p = 0.0001), and post-HD ECW/TBW (0.50 vs. 0.45, p = 0.015). The ROC curve analysis to predict mortality found ECW/TBW ≥ 0.47 and PhA ≤ 5.5º to have the best sensitivity and specificity. One-year patient survival was lower with post-HD ECW/TBW ≥ 0.47 (69.5% vs. 90.6%, p = 0.019), age ≥ 65 years (64.2%, vs. 86.2%, p = 0.029), and PhA ≤ 5.5º (68.2 vs. 91.0%, p = 0.002). Cox regression analysis demonstrated that PhA [HR 5.04 (95%CI 1.60-15.86), p = 0.006] remained associated with death after adjusting for age and ECW/TBW. CONCLUSION BIA is useful in assessing volume distribution and nutrition in HD patients, and combined with clinical judgement, may help determine dry weight, especially in elderly patients. Narrower PhA and higher ECW/TBW after HD were associated with poorer one-year survival.

Abstract
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is the most widely used technique in body composition analysis. When we focus the use of phase sensitive BIA on its raw parameters Resistance (R), Reactance (Xc) and Phase Angle (PhA), we eliminate the bias of using predictive equations based on reference models. In particular PhA, have demonstrated their prognostic utility in multiple aspects of health and disease. In recent years, as a strong association between prognostic and diagnostic factors has been observed, scientific interest in the utility of PhA has increased. In the different fields of knowledge in biomedical research, there are different ways of assessing the impact of a scientific-technical aspect such as PhA. Single frequency with phase detection bioimpedance analysis (SF-BIA) using a 50 kHz single frequency device and tetrapolar wrist-ankle electrode placement is the most widely used bioimpedance approach for characterization of whole-body composition. However, the incorporation of vector representation of raw bioelectrical parameters and direct mathematical calculations without the need for regression equations for the analysis of body compartments has been one of the most important aspects for the development of research in this area. These results provide new evidence for the validity of phase-sensitive bioelectrical measurements as biomarkers of fluid and nutritional status. To enable the development of clinical research that provides consistent results, it is essential to establish appropriate standardization of PhA measurement techniques. Standardization of test protocols will facilitate the diagnosis and assessment of the risk associated with reduced PhA and the evaluation of changes in response to therapeutic interventions. In this paper, we describe and overview the value of PhA in biomedical research, technical and instrumental aspects of PhA research, analysis of Areas of clinical research (cancer patients, digestive and liver diseases, critical and surgical patients, Respiratory, infectious, and COVID-19, obesity and metabolic diseases, Heart and kidney failure, Malnutrition and sarcopenia), characterisation of the different research outcomes, Morphofunctional assessment in disease-related malnutrition and other metabolic disorders: validation of PhA with reference clinical practice techniques, strengths and limitations. Based on the detailed study of the measurement technique, some of the key issues to be considered in future PhA research. On the other hand, it is important to assess the clinical conditions and the phenotype of the patients, as well as to establish a disease-specific clinical profile. The appropriate selection of the most critical outcomes is another fundamental aspect of research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Protein energy wasting frequently affect hemodialysis patients and contribute to the development of overhydration. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of oral nutritional supplementation (ONS) combined with bioelectrical vector analysis (BIVA) on the nutritional and hydration status and the quality of life (QoL) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. METHODS Thirty-two chronic HD patients were included in a 6-month randomized pilot study. Patients in SUPL group received a simultaneous intervention consisting of a personalized diet, 245 mL/d ONS and dry weight adjustment through BIVA. Patients in CON group received a personalized diet and dry weight adjustment by BIVA. Anthropometrical, biochemical, dietary, QoL, handgrip strength (HGS) and bioimpedance measurements were performed. Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS) was applied. RESULTS At the end of the intervention, moderate undernutrition decreased by 43.8% in SUPL group while in CON group, severe undernutrition increased by 13% (p < 0.04 between groups). In the adjusted covariance analysis, SUPL compared to CON group, increased HGS (Δ 2.8 Kg vs Δ -1.8 Kg, p = 0.003), serum albumin (Δ 0.29 g/dL vs Δ -0.03 g/dL, p = 0.04) and serum transferrin (Δ 4.7 mg/dL vs Δ -0.7 mg/dL, p = 0.0007). The increase in QoL was significantly higher in SUPL group. Dry weight was achieved in 100% of patients in SUPL and 95% in CON group. CONCLUSIONS ONS combined with BIVA for dry weight adjustment, improved nutritional status, QoL and achieved dry weight in HD patients.

Abstract
Objective assessment of fluid status in critical surgical care may help optimize perioperative fluid administration and prevent postoperative fluid retention. We evaluated the feasibility of hydration status and fluid distribution assessment by Bioimpedance spectroscopy Analysis (BIA) in patients undergoing acute high-risk abdominal (AHA) surgery. This observational study included 73 patients undergoing AHA surgery. During the observational period (0-120 h), we registered BIA calculated absolute fluid overload (AFO) and relative fluid overload (RFO), defined as AFO/extracellular water ratio, as well as cumulative fluid balance and weight. Based on RFO values, hydration status was classified into three categories: dehydrated (RFO < - 10%), normohydrated (- 10% ≤ RFO ≤ + 15%), overhydrated RFO > 15%. We performed a total of 365 BIA measurements. Preoperative overhydration was found in 16% of patients, increasing to 66% by postoperative day five. The changes in BIA measured AFO correlated with the cumulative fluid balance (r2 = 0.44, p < .001), and change in weight (r2 = 0.55, p < .0001). Perioperative overhydration measured with BIA was associated with worse outcome compared to patients with normo- or dehydration. We have demonstrated the feasibility of obtaining perioperative bedside BIA measurements in patients undergoing AHA surgery. BIA measurements correlated with fluid balance, weight changes, and postoperative clinical complications. BIA-assessed fluid status might add helpful information to guide fluid management in patients undergoing AHA surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the pathophysiology of fluid distribution in acute high-risk abdominal (AHA) surgery is essential in optimizing fluid management. There is currently no data on the time course and haemodynamic implications of fluid distribution in the perioperative period and the differences between the surgical pathologies. METHODS Seventy-three patients undergoing surgery for intestinal obstruction, perforated viscus, and anastomotic leakage within a well-defined perioperative regime, including intraoperative goal-directed therapy, were included in this prospective, observational study. From 0 to 120 h, we measured body fluid volumes and hydration status by bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIA), fluid balance (input vs. output), preload dependency defined as a > 10% increase in stroke volume after preoperative fluid challenge, and post-operatively evaluated by passive leg raise. RESULTS We observed a progressive increase in fluid balance and extracellular volume throughout the study, irrespective of surgical diagnosis. BIA measured variables indicated post-operative overhydration in 36% of the patients, increasing to 50% on the 5th post-operative day, coinciding with a progressive increase of preload dependency, from 12% immediately post-operatively to 58% on the 5th post-operative day and irrespective of surgical diagnosis. Patients with overhydration were less haemodynamically stable than those with normo- or dehydration. CONCLUSION Despite increased fluid balance and extracellular volumes, preload dependency increased progressively during the post-operative period. Our observations indicate a post-operative physiological incoherence between changes in the extracellular volume compartment and inadequate physiological preload control in patients undergoing AHA surgery. Considering the increasing overhydration during the observational period, our findings show that an indiscriminate correction of preload dependency with intravenous fluid bolus could lead to overhydration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several factors affect the survival of End Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) patients on dialysis. Machine learning (ML) models may help tackle multivariable and complex, often non-linear predictors of adverse clinical events in ESKD patients. In this study, we used advanced ML method as well as a traditional statistical method to develop and compare the risk factors for mortality prediction model in hemodialysis (HD) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included data HD patients who had data across a baseline period of at least 1 year and 1 day in the internationally representative Monitoring Dialysis Outcomes (MONDO) Initiative dataset. Twenty-three input parameters considered in the model were chosen in an a priori manner. The prediction model used 1 year baseline data to predict death in the following 3 years. The dataset was randomly split into 80% training data and 20% testing data for model development. Two different modeling techniques were used to build the mortality prediction model. FINDINGS A total of 95,142 patients were included in the analysis sample. The area under the receiver operating curve (AUROC) of the model on the test data with XGBoost ML model was 0.84 on the training data and 0.80 on the test data. AUROC of the logistic regression model was 0.73 on training data and 0.75 on test data. Four out of the top five predictors were common to both modeling strategies. DISCUSSION In the internationally representative MONDO data for HD patients, we describe the development of a ML model and a traditional statistical model that was suitable for classification of a prevalent HD patient's 3-year risk of death. While both models had a reasonably high AUROC, the ML model was able to identify levels of hematocrit (HCT) as an important risk factor in mortality. If implemented in clinical practice, such proof-of-concept models could be used to provide pre-emptive care for HD patients.

Abstract
Introduction Lung ultrasound (LUS) is used for dry weight guidance by assessment of pulmonary congestion in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The aim of this study was to estimate amounts of accumulated fluid by total LUS scores (TLUSS), which were scarcely reported in HD patients who were normal or had a mild functional abnormality. In addition, the correlations between the LUS score of each area and TLUSS were determined to suggest fewer specific areas valuable to shorten the examination time of LUS. Methods This cohort study was conducted in adult HD patients who have New York Heart Association Classes I-II. LUS and multifrequency bioimpedance (BIA) were performed at baseline and the individual prescribed dry weight was set. Then each LUS was conducted at 28 areas of bilateral intercostal spaces and calculated as TLUSS weekly for eight weeks in which dry weight was adjusted. The second BIA was also measured at week eight. The difference of pre-HD weight and target weight (weight gain; WG) represented the amount of fluid accumulation. Results Twenty patients with a mean age of 62.2±14.0 years were enrolled. One hundred and sixty-six LUS were performed in which forty episodes of them were simultaneously measured with BIA. Optimum dry weight adjusted by TLUSS which benefited in mean reductions of blood pressure, and cardiothoracic ratios. WG amounts were significantly correlated with TLUSS (r=0.38), and with extracellular fluid (r=0.35) and overhydration fluid (r=0.39) assessed by BIA. Estimations of mean fluid overload were 2.18 (TLUSS ≤15), 2.72 (TLUSS 16-24), 3.17 (TLUSS 25-33), 3.65 (TLUSS 34-38) and 5.03 (TLUSS ≥39) in liters. The cut-off points of sum scores of 12 specific lung areas represented the none-mild were <8, moderate at 8-16, and severe pulmonary congestions were >16. Conclusion TLUSS estimated accumulated fluid useful for volume and blood pressure controls. Performance of LUS in 12 specific lung areas may reduce spending time and support routine uses of LUS in clinical practice.

Abstract
RESUMO Antecedentes: Análise de bioimpedância (BIA) demonstrou adicionar acurácia às avaliações de estado nutricional e de volume em pacientes em diálise (HD). Objetivo: descrever amostra de pacientes em diálise de um único centro quanto aos aspectos demográficos e BIA na distribuição de volume e no estado nutricional, e a mortalidade em 12 meses de acompanhamento. Métodos: estudo de coorte observacional prospectivo para avaliar pacientes prevalentes em HD com BIA de frequência única. Resultados: avaliamos 82 pacientes, 29% acima de 65 anos. Pacientes idosos apresentaram maior AEC/ACT (0,51 vs. 0,44; p < 0,0001), e ângulo de fase mais estreito (PhA) (4,9 vs. 6,4º; p < 0,0001). Quinze pacientes (18,2%) foram a óbito durante acompanhamento, oito (53%) eram idosos. Óbito foi associado à idade (62,6 vs. 50,2 anos, p = 0,012), PhA pós-HD (4,8 vs. 6,2º; p = 0,0001), e AEC/ACT pós-HD (0,50 vs. 0,45, p = 0,015). A análise da curva ROC para prever mortalidade constatou que AEC/ACT ≥ 0,47 e PhA ≤ 5,5º apresentam melhor sensibilidade e especificidade. Sobrevida do paciente em um ano foi menor com AEC/ACT pós-HD ≥ 0,47 (69,5% vs. 90,6%; p = 0,019), idade ≥ 65 anos (64,2% vs. 86,2%; p = 0,029), e PhA ≤ 5,5º (68,2 vs. 91,0%; p = 0,002). A análise de regressão de Cox demonstrou que PhA [HR 5,04 (IC 95% 1,60–15,86); p = 0,006] permaneceu associado ao óbito após ajuste para idade e AEC/ACT. Conclusão: BIA é útil ao avaliar distribuição de volume e nutrição em pacientes em HD, e juntamente com julgamento clínico, pode ajudar a determinar o peso seco, principalmente em pacientes idosos. PhA mais estreito e maior AEC/ACT pós-HD foram associados a pior sobrevida em um ano.

Abstract
Background It is becoming increasingly evident that the accurate assessment of fluid
status is critical to ensure optimal care in patients undergoing
hemodialysis (HD). Various fluid parameters, including
overhydration (OH) and overhydration/extracellular water
(OH/ECW%), which can be obtained using a
bioimpedance spectroscopy device have been used to indicate the hydration
status in such patients. This study aimed to explore the effect of these
fluid parameters on cardiovascular events and determine which parameter was
a better predictor of cardiovascular events (CVEs). Methods A total of 227 patients who underwent HD at the Hangzhou Hospital of
Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled in this prospective study between
December 2017 and August 2018. Clinical data were collected, and the fluid
status of patients was assessed using a body composition monitor. The
patients were followed up until December 2020. The primary outcomes were
CVEs. The association between fluid parameters and CVEs was analyzed using
Cox proportional hazards models. The areas under the curve
(AUCs) of receiver operating characteristic analysis and
improvement in the global chi-squared value were used to compare the
predictive values of fluid parameters for CVEs. Results During a median follow-up of 31 months, 66 CVEs were recorded. The
patients with a higher absolute hydration index (OH) and a
relative hydration index (OH/ECW%) exhibited an
increased risk of developing CVEs. After adjusting for confounding factors,
both OH [hazard ratio (HR) 1.279 per L, 95%
confidence interval (CI) 1.047–1.562;
p = 0.016] and OH/ECW%
(HR 1.061 per %, 95% CI 1.017–1.108;
p = 0.006) were
independently associated with CVEs. The predictive ability of the absolute
hydration index was superior to the relative hydration index based on AUC
calculations for CVEs. Furthermore, a greater change in
χ2 in predicting CVEs was noted
for the absolute hydration index. Conclusions Both absolute hydration index and relative hydration index were found to be
independent predictors of CVEs in univariate and multivariate analyses.
Furthermore, the absolute hydration index had a better additive predictive
value than the relative hydration index in predicting CVEs.

Abstract
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is an important issue among patients undergoing dialysis treatment. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is associated with a number of adverse body composition changes. However, whether body composition is associated with HRQOL is uncertain. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of body composition on HRQOL in PD patients. We performed a cross-sectional observational study on the association between body composition and HRQOL in PD patients at a single center. Body composition was determined by multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy. HRQOL is summarized to three composite scores: kidney disease component summary (KDCS), physical component summary (PCS), and mental component summary (MCS). The relationships between HRQOL and the hydration index, lean tissue index (LTI), and fat tissue index (FTI) were analyzed by regression analysis. One hundred and ninety-seven PD patients were included in the present study. Patients with severe fluid overload showed a lower PCS. The hydration index and FTI showed statistically significant negative associations with PCS. In subgroup analysis, the associations between the hydration index and PCS remained robust after stratifying according to sex, age, and residual urine. Our results indicated that both the hydration index and FTI were negatively associated with HRQOL, especially PCS.

Nutritional Predictors of Mortality after 10 Years of Follow-Up in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease at a Multidisciplinary Unit of Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14183848.

Abstract
Nutritional monitoring in advanced chronic kidney disease (ACKD) units provides personalized care and improves clinical outcomes. This study aimed to identify mortality risk factors in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on nutritional follow-up in the multidisciplinary ACKD unit. A retrospective cross-sectional observational study was conducted in 307 CKD patients’ stage 3b, 4−5 followed-up for 10 years. Clinical and nutritional monitoring was performed by malnutrition-inflammation score (MIS), biochemical parameters (s-albumin, s-prealbumin, and serum C-reactive protein (s-CRP), body composition measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), anthropometry, and handgrip strength measurements. The sample was classified into non-survivors, survivors, and censored groups. Of the 307 CKD patients, the prevalence of protein-energy wasting (PEW) was 27.0% using MIS > 5 points, s-CRP > 1 mg/dL was 19.20%, and 27.18% died. Survivors had higher significant body cell mass (BCM%) and phase angle (PA). Survival analyses significantly showed that age > 72 years, MIS > 5 points, s-prealbumin ≤ 30 mg/dL, PA ≤ 4°, and gender-adjusted handgrip strength (HGS) were associated with an increased risk of mortality. By univariate and multivariate Cox regression, time on follow-up (HR:0.97), s-prealbumin (HR:0.94), and right handgrip strength (HR:0.96) were independent predictors of mortality risk at 10 years of follow-up in the ACKD unit. Nutritional monitoring in patients with stage 3b, 4−5 CKD helps to identify and treat nutritional risk early and improve adverse mortality prognosis.

Abstract
Nutritional status is a predictor of adverse outcomes and mortality in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (ACKD). This study aimed to explore and evaluate risk factors related to nutritional status, body composition, and inflammatory profile in patients with ACKD compared with age- and sex-matched controls in a Mediterranean cohort of the Spanish population. Out of 200 volunteers recruited, 150 participants (64%) were included, and a case-control study was conducted on 75 ACKD patients (stages 4−5), matched individually with controls at a ratio of 1:1 for both age and sex. At enrolment, demographic, clinical, anthropometric, and laboratory parameters were measured. Bioimpedance analysis (BIA) was used to assess both body composition and hydration status. ACKD patients had lower body cell mass (BCM%), muscle mass (MM%) phase angle (PA), s-albumin, and higher C-reactive protein (s-CRP) than controls (at least, p < 0.05). PA correlated positively with BCM% (cases: r = 0.84; controls: r = 0.53, p < 0.001), MM% (cases: r = 0.65; controls: r = 0.31, p < 0.001), and inversely with s-CRP (cases: r = −0.30, p < 0.001; controls: r = −0.31, p = 0.40). By univariate and multivariate conditional regression analysis, total body water (OR: 1.186), extracellular mass (OR: 1.346), s-CRP (OR: 2.050), MM% (OR: 0.847), PA (OR: 0.058), and s-albumin (OR: 0.475) were significantly associated among cases to controls. Nutritional parameters and BIA-derived measures appear as prognostic entities in patients with stage 4−5 ACKD compared to matched controls in this Mediterranean cohort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioimpedance-based estimates of fluid overload have been widely studied and systematically reviewed in dialysis populations, but data from heart failure or non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations have not. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a systematic review of studies using whole-body bioimpedance from heart failure and non-dialysis CKD populations which reported associations with mortality, cardiovascular outcomes and/or CKD progression. We searched MEDLINE, Embase databases and the Cochrane CENTRAL registry from inception to 14th March 2022. Thirty one eligible studies were identified: 20 heart failure and 11 CKD cohorts, with 2 studies including over 1000 participants. A wide range of different bioimpedance methods were used across the studies (heart failure: 8 parameters; CKD: 6). Studies generally reported positive associations, but between-study differences in bioimpedance methods, fluid overload exposure definitions, and modelling approaches precluded meta-analysis. The largest identified study was in non-dialysis CKD (Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort, 3751 participants) which reported adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) for phase angle <5.59 versus ≥6.4 of 2.02 (1.67-2.43) for all-cause mortality; 1.80 (1.46-2.23) for heart failure events; and 1.78 (1.56-2.04) for CKD progression. CONCLUSIONS Bioimpedance indices of fluid overload are associated with risk of important cardiorenal outcomes in heart failure and CKD. Facilitation of more widespread use of bioimpedance needs consensus on the optimum device, standardized analytical methods, and larger studies including more detailed characterization of cardiac and renal phenotypes.

Concordance between bio-impedance analysis and clinical score in fluid-status assessment of maintenance haemodialysis patients: A single centre experience. World J Nephrol 2022; 11:127-138. [PMID: 36161265 PMCID: PMC9353763 DOI: 10.5527/wjn.v11.i4.127] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2021] [Revised: 09/19/2021] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is rising rapidly globally. Fluid overload (FO), an independent predictor of mortality in CKD, should be accurately assessed to guide estimation of the volume of fluid to be removed during haemodialysis (HD). Clinical score (CS) and bio-impedance analysis (BIA) have been utilized in assessment of FO and BIA has demonstrated reproducibility and accuracy in determination of fluid status in patients on HD. There is need to determine the performance of locally-developed CSs in fluid status assessment when evaluated against BIA.
AIM To assess the hydration status of patients on maintenance HD using BIA and a CS, as well as to evaluate the performance of that CS against BIA in fluid status assessment.
METHODS This was a single-centre, hospital-based cross-sectional study which recruited adult patients with CKD who were on maintenance HD at Kenyatta National Hospital. The patients were aged 18 years and above and had been on maintenance HD for at least 3 mo. Those with pacemakers, metallic implants, or bilateral limbs amputations were excluded. Data on the patients’ clinical history, physical examination, and chest radiograph findings were collected. BIA was performed on each of the study participants using the Quantum® II bio-impedance analyser manufactured by RJL Systems together with the BC 4® software. In evaluating the performance of the CS, BIA was considered as the gold standard test. A 2-by-2 table of the participants’ fluid status at each of the CS values obtained compared to their paired BIA results was constructed (either ++, +-, -- or -+ for FO using the CS and BIA, respectively). The results from this 2-by-2 table were used to compute the sensitivity and specificity of the CS at the various reference points and subsequently plot a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve that was used to determine the best cut-off point. Those above and below the best CS cut-off point as determined by the ROC were classified as being positive and negative for FO, respectively. The proportions of participants diagnosed with FO by the CS and BIA, respectively, were computed and summarized in a 2-by-2 contingency table for comparison. McNemar’s chi-squared test was used to assess any statistically significant difference in proportions of patients diagnosed as having FO by CS and BIA. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess whether the variables for the duration of dialysis, the number of missed dialysis sessions, advisement by health care professional on fluid or salt intake, actual fluid intake, the number of anti-hypertensives used, or body mass index were associated with a patient’s odds of having FO as diagnosed by BIA.
RESULTS From 100 patients on maintenance HD screened for eligibility, 80 were recruited into this study. Seventy-one (88.75%) patients were fluid overloaded when evaluated using BIA with mean extracellular volume of 3.02 ± 1.79 L as opposed to the forty-seven (58.25%) patients who had FO when evaluated using the CS. The difference was significant, with a P value of < 0.0001 (95% confidence interval: 0.1758-0.4242). Using CS, values above 4 were indicative of FO while values less than or equal to 4 denoted the best cut-off for no FO. The sensitivity and specificity for the CS were 63% and 78% respectively. None of the factors evaluated for association with FO showed statistical significance on the multivariable logistic regression model.
CONCLUSION FO is very prevalent in patients on chronic HD at the Kenyatta National Hospital. CS detects FO less frequently when compared with BIA. The sensitivity and specificity for the CS were 63% and 78% respectively. None of the factors evaluated for association with FO showed statistical significance on the multivariable logistic regression model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cross-sectional studies showed that fluid overload (FO) measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) predicted adverse outcomes in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). We aimed to describe the longitudinal change in volume status in Chinese PD patients and determine its relation with clinical outcomes. METHODS We performed a single-centre, retrospective analysis of all PD patients who underwent repeated BIS from 2010 to 2015. FO was defined by relative hydration index (RHI; volume of overhydration adjusted by extracellular water >7%). Variability of volume status (VVS) was denoted by the standard deviation of all RHI. The association of time-averaged RHI and VVS on patient and technique survival was explored by a competing risk model. RESULTS A total of 269 patients were followed for a median of 47.1 months. Mean time-averaged RHI was 17.6 ± 10.2%. Multivariable mixed linear regression revealed that RHI was significantly associated with diabetes, time-varying systolic blood pressure, and inversely with time-varying albumin level, lean tissue index and fat tissue index (p <0.0001 for all). Time-averaged RHI independently predicted patient survival (subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) 1.05, 95% CI 1.03-1.07, p <0.0001) and technique survival (SHR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02-1.06, p <0.0001), whereas VVS did not. The mortality risk for patients with persistent FO was consistently higher than the corresponding risk estimated from baseline FO of the same extent. CONCLUSIONS Persistent FO was a strong predictor of patient and technique failure. Repeated bioimpedance measurements to monitor volume status may provide additional prognostic information in PD patients.

Patient and Staff Perceptions on Using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis in an Outpatient Haemodialysis Setting: A Qualitative Descriptive Study. Healthcare (Basel) 2022; 10:healthcare10071205. [PMID: 35885732 PMCID: PMC9320163 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare10071205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 06/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is an objective hydration and body composition assessment method recommended for use in haemodialysis patients. Limited research exists on the acceptability and utility of BIA in clinical practice. This qualitative study explored patient and staff acceptability and perceived value of BIA in an outpatient haemodialysis setting at a tertiary public hospital in Queensland, Australia. Participants included five patients receiving outpatient haemodialysis and 12 multidisciplinary clinical staff providing care to these patients. Semi-structured interviews were employed and data were analysed thematically. Patients were satisfied with the BIA measurement process and most thought the BIA data would be useful for monitoring changes in their nutrition status. Clinical staff valued BIA data for improving fluid management, assessing nutrition status and supporting patient care. Staff recommended targeting BIA use to patient groups who would benefit the most to improve its uptake in the haemodialysis setting. Conclusions: BIA use in the outpatient haemodialysis setting is acceptable and provides valuable objective data to support health-related behaviour changes in patients and enhance clinical practice. Implementation of BIA should be tailored to the local context and staff should be supported in its use.

Ruperto M, Barril G. The Extracellular Mass to Body Cell Mass Ratio as a Predictor of Mortality Risk in Hemodialysis Patients. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14081659. [PMID: 35458220 PMCID: PMC9029814 DOI: 10.3390/nu14081659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2022] [Revised: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
The extracellular mass/body cell mass ratio (ECM/BCM ratio) is a novel indicator of nutritional and hydration status in hemodialysis (HD) patients. This study aimed to explore the ECM/BCM ratio as a predictor of mortality risk with nutritional-inflammatory markers in HD patients. A prospective observational study was conducted in 90 HD patients (male: 52.2%; DM: 25.60%). Clinical and biochemical parameters [serum albumin, serum C-reactive protein (s-CRP), interleukine-6 (IL-6)] were analysed and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) was performed. Protein-energy wasting syndrome (PEW) was diagnosed using malnutrition-inflammation score (MIS). Based on BIA-derived measurements, the ECM/BCM ratio with a cut-off point of 1.20 was used as a PEW-fluid overload indicator. Comorbidity by Charlson index and hospital admissions were measured. Out of 90 HD patients followed up for 36 months, 20 patients (22.22%) died. PEW was observed in 24 survivors (34.28%) and all non-survivors. The ECM/BCM ratio was directly correlated with MIS, s-CRP, Charlson index and hospital admissions but was negatively correlated with phase angle and s-albumin (all, p < 0.001). Values of the ECM/BCM ratio ≥ 1.20 were associated with higher probability of all-cause mortality (p = 0.002). The ECM/BCM ratio ≥ 1.20, IL-6 ≥ 3.1 pg/mL, s-CRP and s-albumin ≥ 3.8 g/dL and Charlson index were significantly associated with all-cause mortality risk in multivariate adjusted analysis. This study demonstrates that the ECM/BCM ratio ≥ 1.20 as a nutritional marker and/or fluid overload indicator had a significant prognostic value of death risk in HD patients.

Phase angle of bioimpedance at 50 kHz is associated with cardiovascular diseases: systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Clin Nutr 2022; 76:1366-1373. [PMID: 35414661 DOI: 10.1038/s41430-022-01131-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Revised: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/24/2022] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
The phase angle of bioimpedance is an important prognostic tool in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between phase angle and cardiovascular diseases. Electronic searches were carried out on MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane, SCIELO, LILACS, CINAHL, Scopus, and the Web of Science. The PECO was "P" adults over 18 years of age, "E" the presence of cardiovascular disease, "C" absence of cardiovascular disease, and "O" phase angle values. The phase-angle means difference (MD) was analyzed separately by sex. Subgroup metanalysis with age, body mass index, and heart failure disease and meta-regressions were analyzed with random-effects models. Sensitivity analysis was performed considering only studies with high quality. The heterogeneity among studies was assessed using the Q-Cochran test and I² statistics. Four-hundred-thirty-nine articles were identified, and 22 studies were included in this systematic review, totaling 10.010 participants. Eight studies met the criteria for the meta-analysis, involving 2164 participants. The phase angle (PA) was measured at 50 kHz frequency in all studies. Individuals with cardiovascular disease had a smaller PA compared to the control group, for both males (MD -0.70; 95% CI -1.01 to -0.39) and females (MD -0.76; 95% CI -1.39 to -0.13). In the sensitivity analysis, in men, the quality of studies (P < 0.01), and in women, heart failure (P < 0.01) was significantly different between groups.The values of the phase angle were lower in individuals with cardiovascular disease than in control subjects. This result reinforces the importance of this tool in clinical practice, highlighting its potential to assess health status. Registration: The systematic review protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database as CRD42020164178.

Abstract
For the past 30 years, nephrologists have focused on a single minimal threshold of Kt/Vurea to determine the adequacy of peritoneal dialysis (PD). To date, there is no evidence that shows Kt/Vurea to be a good surrogate measure of uremic symptom control or nutritional state in patients on PD. Volume of distribution (Vurea) generally is considered equivalent to total body water (TBW). Yet, accurate determination of TBW is difficult. The most recent International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis practice recommendations on prescribing high-quality PD emphasized incorporation of multiple measures rather than the single value of Kt/Vurea. These measures include shared decision-making between the patient and the care team and assessment of health-related quality of life, burden of uremic symptoms, presence of residual kidney function, volume status, and biochemical measures including serum potassium and bicarbonate levels. In some cases, PD prescriptions can be tailored to the patient priorities and goals of care, such as in frail and pediatric patients. Overall, there has been a paradigm shift in providing high-quality care to PD patients. Instead of focusing on small solute clearance in the form of Kt/Vurea, nephrologists are encouraged to use a more comprehensive assessment of the patient as a whole.

Assessment of volemia status using ultrasound examination of the inferior vena cava and spectroscopic bioimpendance in hemodialysis patients. VOJNOSANIT PREGL 2022.

Abstract
Background/Aim. Hypervolemia is an important risk factor for the development of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients treated with regular hemodialysis. There is still no reliable method for assessing the status of volemia in these patients. The aim of the study was to assess the status of volemia in patients treated with regular hemodialysis by measuring the parameters of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and bioimpedance. Methods. The effect of hemodialysis treatment on ultrasound parameters of the IVC, as well as on the parameters measured by bioimpedance, was examined before and after hemodialysis. The values of the N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were measured both before and after hemodialysis. Forty-five patients were involved in this non-interventional cross-section study, including the patients treated with standard bicarbonate dialysis. According to the interdialytic yield, the patients were divided into three groups: I (up to 2,000 mL), II (2,000?3,000 mL), and III (over 3,000 mL). Results. The values of the IVC parameters and the parameters measured with bioimpedance were significantly lower after treatment with hemodialysis (p < 0.005). The third group of patients had a significantly higher total fluid volume in the body com-pared to the group I, as well as a significantly greater volume of extracellular fluid (p < 0.005). The significantly lower values of NT-proBNP in all groups (p < 0.005) were detected after hemodialysis. After treatment with hemodialysis, a positive correlation was observed between the concentration of NT-proBNP in the serum and the extracellular/intracellular water ratio. However, the correlation between NT-proBNP concentration and total fluid measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion. Measurement of the IVC ultrasound parameters and volemia parameters using bioimpedance significantly contributes to the assessment of the status of volemia. Nevertheless, it cannot be used as a separate parameter, only in combination with all other methods.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inadequate fluid status remains a key driver of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. Quantification of fluid overload (FO) using bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) has become standard in many countries. To date, no BIS device has been approved in the United States for fluid status assessment in kidney patients. Therefore, no previous quantification of fluid status in US kidney patients using BIS has been reported. Our aim was to conduct a cross-sectional BIS-based assessment of fluid status in an urban US HD population. METHODS We determined fluid status in chronic HD patients using whole body BIS (Body Composition Monitor, BCM). The BCM reports FO in liters; negative FO denotes fluid depletion. Measurements were performed before dialysis. Post-HD FO was estimated by subtracting the intradialytic weight loss from the pre-HD FO. FINDINGS We studied 170 urban HD patients (age 61 ± 14 years, 60% male). Pre- and post-HD FO (mean ± SD), were 2.2 ± 2.4 and -0.2 ± 2.7 L, respectively. Pre-HD, 43% of patients were fluid overloaded, 53% normally hydrated, and 4% fluid depleted. Post-HD, 12% were fluid overloaded, 55% normohydrated and 32% fluid depleted. Only 48% of fluid overloaded patients were hypertensive, while 38% were normotensive and 14% hypotensive. Fluid status did not differ significantly between African Americans (N = 90) and Caucasians (N = 61). DISCUSSION While about half of the patients had normal fluid status pre-HD, a considerable proportion of patients was either fluid overloaded or depleted, indicating the need for tools to objectively quantify fluid status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of bioimpedance-defined overhydration (BI-OH) parameters in predicting the risk of mortality and cardiovascular (CV) events in patients undergoing dialysis. METHODS We searched multiple electronic databases for studies investigating BI-OH indicators in the prediction of mortality and CV events through 23 May 2020. We assessed the effect of BI-OH indexes using unadjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Sensitivity analysis was used for each outcome. RESULTS We included 55 studies with 104,758 patients in the meta-analysis. Extracellular water/total body water (ECW/TBW) >0.4 (HR 5.912, 95% CI: 2.016-17.342), ECW/intracellular water (ICW) for every 0.01 increase (HR 1.041, 95% CI: 1.031-1.051), and OH/ECW >15% (HR 2.722, 95% CI: 2.005-3.439) increased the risk of mortality in patients receiving dialysis. ECW/TBW >0.4 (HR 2.679, 95% CI: 1.345-5.339) and ECW/ICW per increment of 10% (HR 1.032, 95% CI: 1.017-1.047) were associated with an increased risk of CV events in patients undergoing dialysis. A 1-degree increase in phase angle was a protective factor for both mortality (HR 0.676, 95% CI: 0.474-0.879) and CV events (HR 0.736, 95% CI: 0.589-0.920). CONCLUSIONS BI-OH parameters might be independent predictors for mortality and CV events in patients undergoing dialysis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) adversely affects patients who are older, multimorbid, and from Black, Asian or minority ethnicities (BAME). We assessed whether being from BAME is independently associated with mortality in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients with COVID-19. METHODS Prospective observational study in a single UK renal center. A study was conducted between March 10, 2020 and April 30, 2020. Demographics, socioeconomic deprivation (index of multiple deprivation), co-morbidities (Charlson comorbidity index [CCI]), and frailty data (clinical frailty score) were collected. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Data were censored on the 1st June 2020. FINDINGS Overall, 191 of our 3379 ESKD patients contracted COVID-19 in the 8-week observation period; 84% hemodialysis, 5% peritoneal dialysis, and 11% kidney transplant recipients (KTR). Of these, 57% were male and 67% were from BAME groups (43% Asian, 17% Black, 2% mixed race, and 5% other). Mean CCI was 7.45 (SD 2.11) and 3.90 (SD 2.10) for dialysis patients and KTR, respectively. In our cohort, 60% of patients lived in areas classified as being in the most deprived 20% in the United Kingdom, and of these, 77% of patients were from BAME groups. The case fatality rate was 29%. Multivariable cox regression demonstrated that BAME (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.37, 95% CI: 1.22-4.61) was associated with all-cause mortality after adjustment for age, deprivation, co-morbidities, and frailty. Associations with all-cause mortality persisted in sensitivity analyses in patients from South Asian (HR: 2.52, 95% CI: 1.24-5.12) and Black (HR: 2.43, 95% CI: 1.04-5.67) ethnic backgrounds. DISCUSSION BAME ESKD patients with COVID-19 are just over twice as likely to die compared to White patients, despite adjustment for age, deprivation, comorbidity, and frailty. This study highlights the need to develop strategies to improve BAME patient outcomes in future outbreaks of COVID-19.

Abstract
Volume overload is widespread in the hemodialysis (HD) patients, which is closely related to cardiovascular complications, hospitalization rates, hospitalization costs, and mortality. Meanwhile it is an important independent prognostic risk factor. Some new technologies for volume assessment have made some progress and are gradually applied in clinical practice, such as blood volume monitoring, lung ultrasound examination, bioelectrical impedance analysis, and corrected flow time. The new technologies can provide clinicians more objective and efficient methods for assessing the volume status of the HD patients, which is beneficial to the HD patients because they can achieve an ideal volume balance and improve the prognosis.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Body fluid volume imbalance is common in patients with kidney failure, and is associated with all-cause mortality. This study aimed to investigate the association between fluid volume imbalance and albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without kidney failure. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using data from one cohort study, a baseline cross-sectional study of 432 participants and a longitudinal cohort study of 368 participants who could follow up was carried out. Body fluid imbalance was determined by measuring the extracellular water (ECW)-to-intracellular water (ICW) ratio (ECW/ICW) using bioelectrical impedance analysis. A change in the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) was defined as the ratio of urinary ACR at follow up to that at baseline. The ECW/ICW ratio was compared with the level of albuminuria. RESULTS In this cross-sectional study, the ECW/ICW ratio increased with the level of albuminuria. There was an association between the ECW/ICW ratio and logarithms of urinary ACR after adjusting for covariates (β = 0.205, P < 0.001). Furthermore, the ECW/ICW ratio was associated with a change in the urinary ACR after adjusting for covariates (β = 0.176, P = 0.004) in this longitudinal study. According to the receiver operating characteristic curve, the optimal cut-off point of the ECW/ICW ratio for incident macroalbuminuria, defined as ACR >300 mg/gCr, was 0.648 (area under the curve 0.78, 95% confidence interval 0.58-0.90). CONCLUSIONS The ECW/ICW ratio is independently associated with the level of albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without kidney failure. This reinforces the importance of monitoring fluid balance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Association of Phase Angle, but Not Inflammation and Overhydration, With Physical Function in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients. Front Nutr 2021; 8:686245. [PMID: 34136523 PMCID: PMC8200391 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2021.686245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Muscle mass depletion, overhydration, and inflammatory state have been related to impaired physical function in chronic kidney disease patients. The relationship between bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) parameters, such as hydration status and phase angle (PhA), with physical function in peritoneal dialysis (PD), is still not well-established. Therefore, the objective was to evaluate the association of BIA parameters (overhydration index and PhA) and inflammatory markers with physical function in patients on PD. Methods: The present cross-sectional study enrolled PD patients. Multifrequency BIA was performed to obtain overhydration index and PhA. The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) test battery was applied to assess physical function. The time to complete the 4-m gait test and sit-to-stand test was also considered for physical function assessment. The inflammatory markers tumor necrosis factor-alpha and C-reactive protein levels were determined. Multiple linear regression models were performed, with the physical function variables as dependent variables, adjusted for age, diabetes, and sex. Results: Forty-nine PD patients were enrolled, 53.1% (n = 26) women; mean age, 55.5 ± 16.3 years. There were significant correlations between PhA and SPPB (r = 0.550, p < 0.001), time of 4-m gait test (r = −0.613, p < 0.001) and sit-to-stand test and (r = −0.547, p < 0.001). Overhydration index was significantly correlated with SPPB, 4-m gait test (r = 0.339, p = 0.017), and sit-to-stand test (r = 0.335, p = 0.019). Inflammatory markers were not significantly correlated with physical function parameters. In the multiple linear regression analysis, PhA was associated with physical function parameters, even after adjustments. Overhydration index was associated with all physical function tests only in the models with no adjustments. Conclusion: PhA was independently associated with physical function in PD patients. Inflammatory markers and overhydration index were not associated with physical function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improved understanding and assessment of the complex physiology of volume regulation in haemodialysis (HD) patients are required to improve patient care and reduce mortality associated with fluid overload (FO). METHODS We searched for FO-related biomarkers among 184 peptides associated with cardiovascular disease in a cohort of 30 HD patients. First, we assessed the direct impact of HD on the peptides of interest by comparing plasma concentrations before and after treatment. Then, we compared cardiovascular peptide profiles between patients with and without FO as defined by bioimpedance analysis (BIA). The plasma concentration of selected candidate biomarkers for FO was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and correlated with previously described FO-related clinical and laboratory parameters. For validation, results were confirmed in an independent cohort of 144 HD patients. RESULTS We found seven peptides positively [NT-proBNP, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGFD), tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 2, growth differentiation factor 15, tumour necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 13B, chitinase-3-like protein 1] and five negatively (leptin, renin, epidermal growth factor receptor, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist, myeloblastin) correlated to FO. In addition to natriuretic peptides, VEGFD emerged as third peptide highly correlated with BIA (ρ = 0.619, P < 0.0001). In line with this, VEGFD concentration verified by ELISA correlated with BIA, BNP and soluble CD146 but not with vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGFC). Notably, levels of VEGFD were unrelated to cardiac systolic function (P = 0.63), contrary to BNP (P = 0.0003). Finally, we observed that 1-year all-cause mortality was higher in patients with high BNP (P = 0.0002), FO (defined by BIA, P = 0.04) and high VEGFD (P = 0.02), but not with high VEGFC (P = 0.48). CONCLUSION VEGFD is a novel FO-related biomarker with unique diagnostic and prognostic properties.

Abstract
Background Overhydration is a predictor of mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is used to determine the body composition. Extracellular Water/Total Body Water (ECW/TBW) ratio has been proposed to predict mortality. Methods Multicenter, prospective, observational, proof-of-concept study to estimate the impact of ECW/TBW in global and cardiovascular mortality and the relationship with cardiovascular biomarkers. The study included 60 patients (mean age, 71.8 ± 11.4 years; mean time on HD, 52.3 ± 30.8 months) with a median follow-up of 30.5 months (IQ range, 17.2–34 months). Results Post-dialysis ECW/TBW was directly associated with NT-proBNP and cTnT. During the study 28 patients died, most of them (43%) due to cardiovascular events. Compared to the survivors, these subjects had a higher post-dialysis ECW/TBW ratio (p = 0.006), while for cardiovascular mortality the only significant difference was a higher pre-dialysis ECW/TBW. The ability of post-dialysis ECW/TBW ratio to predict all-cause mortality had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.71 (CI 95%, 0.57–0.81; p = 0.002), with a cutoff point of 0.5023. For cardiovascular mortality the AUC was 0.66 (CI 95%, 0.52–0.77; p = 0.045), with a cutoff point of 0.4713. Conclusions The post-dialysis ECW/TBW ratio measured by BIS can be a predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.

Abstract
Rationale & Objective Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) provides a noninvasive assessment of body composition. BIA measures of nutritional (phase angle) and hydration (vector length) status are associated with survival among individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), including those receiving maintenance dialysis. However, little is known regarding changes in these parameters with CKD following the high-risk transition to maintenance dialysis. Study Design Observational study. Settings & Participants 427 adults enrolled in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study, with BIA measurements performed within 1 year before and after initiation of maintenance dialysis. Exposures We calculated the changes in vector length and phase angle for patients with CKD transitioning to maintenance dialysis. Outcomes We examined the association of changes in vector length and phase angle during the transition to maintenance dialysis with risk for all-cause mortality or nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, or heart failure, adjusting for demographics, comorbid conditions, and nutritional parameters. Results Mean age was 58 ± 12 years and mean estimated glomerular filtration rate using the CKD Epidemiology Collaboration equation before dialysis initiation was 17.0 ± 8.7 mL/min/1.73 m2. After covariate adjustment, mean changes in vector length and phase angle were 18 (95% CI, 7 to 30) Ω/m and -0.6 (95% CI, -1.3 to 0.1 ), respectively. Changes in both BIA parameters were not associated with risk for heart failure, stroke, myocardial infarction, or all-cause mortality: HR, 1.02 (95% CI, 0.91-1.14) per 1-SD increment in change for vector length and HR, 1.11 (95% CI, 0.88-1.41) per 1-SD increment in change for phase angle. Limitations Observational study, relatively small sample size. Conclusions In a multicenter cohort of patients with CKD who progressed to kidney failure, the transition to maintenance dialysis was associated with changes in body composition reflecting poorer cellular integrity and improved volume control. However, these longitudinal changes were not associated with adverse clinical events after dialysis initiation.

Abstract
Lay summary Peritoneal dialysis (PD) uses the peritoneal membrane for dialysis. The peritoneal membrane is a thin layer of tissue that lines the abdomen. The lining is used as a filter to help remove extra fluid and poisonous waste from the blood. Everybody is unique. What is normal for one person’s membrane may be very different from another person’s. The kidney care team wants to provide each person with the best dialysis prescription for them and to do this they must evaluate the person’s peritoneal lining. Sometimes dialysis treatment itself can cause the membrane to change after some years. This means more assessments (evaluations) will be needed to determine whether the person’s peritoneal membrane has changed. Changes in the membrane may require changes to the dialysis prescription. This is needed to achieve the best dialysis outcomes. A key tool for these assessments is the peritoneal equilibration test (PET). It is a simple, standardized and reproducible tool. This tool is used to measure the peritoneal function soon after the start of dialysis. The goal is to understand how well the peritoneal membrane works at the start of dialysis. Later on in treatment, the PET helps to monitor changes in peritoneal function. If there are changes between assessments causing problems, the PET data may explain the cause of the dysfunction. This may be used to change the dialysis prescription to achieve the best outcomes. The most common problem with the peritoneal membrane occurs when fluid is not removed as well as it should be. This happens when toxins (poisons) in the blood cross the membrane more quickly than they should. This is referred to as a fast peritoneal solute transfer rate (PSTR). Since more efficient fluid removal is associated with better outcomes, developing a personal PD prescription based on the person’s PSTR is critically important. A less common problem happens when the membrane fails to work properly (also called membrane dysfunction) because the peritoneal membrane is less efficient, either at the start of treatment or developing after some years. If membrane dysfunction gets worse over time, then this is associated with progressive damage, scarring and thickening of the membrane. This problem can be identified through another change of the PET. It is called reduced ‘sodium dip’. Membrane dysfunction of this type is more difficult to treat and has many implications for the individual. If the damage is major, the person may need to stop PD. They would need to begin haemodialysis treatment (also spelled hemodialysis). This is a very important and emotional decision for individuals with kidney failure. Any decision that involves stopping PD therapy or transitioning to haemodialysis therapy should be made jointly between the clinical team, the person on dialysis and a caregiver, if requested. Although evidence is lacking about how often tests should be performed to determine peritoneal function, it seems reasonable to repeat them whenever there is difficulty in removing the amount of fluid necessary for maintaining the health and well-being of the individual. Whether routine evaluation of membrane function is associated with better outcomes has not been studied. Further research is needed to answer this important question as national policies in many parts of the world and the COVID-19 has placed a greater emphasis and new incentives encouraging the greater adoption of home dialysis therapies, especially PD. For Chinese and Spanish Translation of the Lay Summary, see Online Supplement Appendix 1. Key recommendations Guideline 1: A pathophysiological taxonomy: A pathophysiological classification of membrane dysfunction, which provides mechanistic links to functional characteristics, should be used when prescribing individualized dialysis or when planning modality transfer (e.g. to automated peritoneal dialysis (PD) or haemodialysis) in the context of shared and informed decision-making with the person on PD, taking individual circumstances and treatment goals into account. (practice point) Guideline 2a: Identification of fast peritoneal solute transfer rate (PSTR): It is recommended that the PSTR is determined from a 4-h peritoneal equilibration test (PET), using either 2.5%/2.27% or 4.25%/3.86% dextrose/glucose concentration and creatinine as the index solute. (practice point) This should be done early in the course dialysis treatment (between 6 weeks and 12 weeks) (GRADE 1A) and subsequently when clinically indicated. (practice point) Guideline 2b: Clinical implications and mitigation of fast solute transfer: A faster PSTR is associated with lower survival on PD. (GRADE 1A) This risk is in part due to the lower ultrafiltration (UF) and increased net fluid reabsorption that occurs when the PSTR is above the average value. The resulting lower net UF can be avoided by shortening glucose-based exchanges, using a polyglucose solution (icodextrin), and/or prescribing higher glucose concentrations. (GRADE 1A) Compared to glucose, use of icodextrin can translate into improved fluid status and fewer episodes of fluid overload. (GRADE 1A) Use of automated PD and icodextrin may mitigate the mortality risk associated with fast PSTR. (practice point) Guideline 3: Recognizing low UF capacity: This is easy to measure and a valuable screening test. Insufficient UF should be suspected when either (a) the net UF from a 4-h PET is <400 ml (3.86% glucose/4.25% dextrose) or <100 ml (2.27% glucose /2.5% dextrose), (GRADE 1B) and/or (b) the daily UF is insufficient to maintain adequate fluid status. (practice point) Besides membrane dysfunction, low UF capacity can also result from mechanical problems, leaks or increased fluid absorption across the peritoneal membrane not explained by fast PSTR. Guideline 4a: Diagnosing intrinsic membrane dysfunction (manifesting as low osmotic conductance to glucose) as a cause of UF insufficiency: When insufficient UF is suspected, the 4-h PET should be supplemented by measurement of the sodium dip at 1 h using a 3.86% glucose/4.25% dextrose exchange for diagnostic purposes. A sodium dip ≤5 mmol/L and/or a sodium sieving ratio ≤0.03 at 1 h indicates UF insufficiency. (GRADE 2B) Guideline 4b: Clinical implications of intrinsic membrane dysfunction (de novo or acquired): in the absence of residual kidney function, this is likely to necessitate the use of hypertonic glucose exchanges and possible transfer to haemodialysis. Acquired membrane injury, especially in the context of prolonged time on treatment, should prompt discussions about the risk of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis. (practice point) Guideline 5: Additional membrane function tests: measures of peritoneal protein loss, intraperitoneal pressure and more complex tests that estimate osmotic conductance and ‘lymphatic’ reabsorption are not recommended for routine clinical practice but remain valuable research methods. (practice point) Guideline 6: Socioeconomic considerations: When resource constraints prevent the use of routine tests, consideration of membrane function should still be part of the clinical management and may be inferred from the daily UF in response to the prescription.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients affected by chronic kidney disease are at a risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Body fluids unbalance is one of the main characteristics of this condition, as fluid overload is highly prevalent in patients affected by the cardiorenal syndrome. SUMMARY We describe the state of the art and new insights into body volume evaluation. The mechanisms behind fluid balance are often complex, mainly because of the interplay of multiple regulatory systems. Consequently, its management may be challenging in clinical practice and even more so out-of-hospital. Availability of novel technologies offer new opportunities to improve the quality of care and patients' outcome. Development and validation of new technologies could provide new tools to reduce costs for the healthcare system, promote personalized medicine, and boost home care. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, a proper monitoring of chronic patients suffering from fluid unbalances is extremely relevant. Key Message: We discuss the main mechanisms responsible for fluid overload in different clinical contexts, including hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and heart failure, emphasizing the potential impact provided by the implementation of the new technologies.

Abstract
The recently published 2020 International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD) practice recommendations regarding prescription of high-quality goal-directed peritoneal dialysis differ fundamentally from previous guidelines that focused on "adequacy" of dialysis. The new ISPD publication emphasizes the need for a person-centered approach with shared decision making between the individual performing peritoneal dialysis and the clinical care team while taking a broader view of the various issues faced by that individual. Cognizant of the lack of strong evidence for the recommendations made, they are labeled as "practice points" rather than being graded numerically. This commentary presents the views of a work group convened by the National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) to assess these recommendations and assist clinical providers in the United States in interpreting and implementing them. This will require changes to the current clinical paradigm, including greater resource allocation to allow for enhanced services that provide a more holistic and person-centered assessment of the quality of dialysis delivered.

Low Serum Potassium Levels and Clinical Outcomes in Peritoneal Dialysis-International Results from PDOPPS. Kidney Int Rep 2020; 6:313-324. [PMID: 33615056 PMCID: PMC7879114 DOI: 10.1016/j.ekir.2020.11.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2020] [Revised: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Hypokalemia, including normal range values <4 mEq/l, has been associated with increased peritonitis and mortality in patients with peritoneal dialysis. This study sought to describe international variation in hypokalemia, potential modifiable hypokalemia risk factors, and the covariate-adjusted relationship of hypokalemia with peritonitis and mortality. Methods Baseline serum potassium was determined in 7421 patients from 7 countries in the Peritoneal Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (2014-2017). Association of baseline patient and treatment factors with subsequent serum potassium <4 mEq/l was evaluated by logistic regression, whereas baseline serum potassium levels (4-month average and fraction of 4 months having hypokalemia) on clinical outcomes was assessed by Cox regression. Results Hypokalemia was more prevalent in Thailand and among black patients in the United States. Characteristics/treatments associated with potassium <4 mEq/l included protein-energy wasting indicators, lower urine volume, lower blood pressure, higher dialysis dose, greater diuretic use, and not being prescribed a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor. Persistent hypokalemia (all 4 months vs. 0 months over the 4-month exposure period) was associated with 80% higher subsequent peritonitis rates (at K <3.5 mEq/l) and 40% higher mortality (at K <4.0 mEq/l) after extensive case mix/potential confounding adjustments. Furthermore, adjusted peritonitis rates were higher if having mean serum K over 4 months <3.5 mEq/l versus 4.0-4.4 mEq/l (hazard ratio, 1.15 [95% confidence interval, 0.96-1.37]), largely because of Gram-positive/culture-negative infections. Conclusions Persistent hypokalemia is associated with higher mortality and peritonitis even after extensive adjustment for patient factors. Further studies are needed to elucidate mechanisms of these poorer outcomes and modifiable risk factors for persistent hypokalemia.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate the role of N-terminal pro-hormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as a predictor of cardiovascular events (CVE) in patients receiving programmed hemodialysis (PHD).Material and methods This study included 74 patients (men, 64.8 %) older than 18 years receiving PHD. Data were processed using mean values of standard biochemical indexes for 16 months. NT-proBNP level was measured and transthoracic echocardiography (EchoCG) and bioimpedancemetry were performed at the time of inclusion into the study. Cumulative incidence of CVE for 16 months was evaluated in patients with different levels of NT-proBNP (quartile 1: <1127 pg/ml; quartile 1-4: 1127-3210 pg/ml; quartile 4: >3210 pg/ml) using the Kaplan-Meier method. For assessment of NT-proBNP as a CVE predictor, receiver operational characteristic curves (ROC curves) were constructed.Results The serum concentration of NT-proBNP was 2114.5 [1127; 3210.4] pg/ml. During 16 months, CVE were observed in 25.6 % of patients. The risk of CVE increased with increasing NT-proBNP quartile in the analysis of Kaplan-Meier curves (Log-Rank test, p=0.032). In this process, CVE did not develop in patients with NT-proBNP concentrations lower than 1127 pg/ml. The ROC analysis demonstrated a good predictive value of NT-proBNP (p=0.006, AUC 0.71, 95 % CI: 0.59-0.83). The optimum cut-off threshold of the NT-proBNP level predictive of CVE was 2093 pg/ml (sensitivity, 84.2 %, specificity, 58.2 %). CVE developed in patients with greater values of volumetric myocardial parameters, indirect signs of hyperhydration (higher predialysis sodium level and pulmonary artery systolic pressure), smaller volumes of substituate per dialysis procedure, and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (p<0.05).Conclusion In patients receiving programmed extracorporeal therapy, the serum concentration of NT-proBNP was considerably higher than mean values in the general population. Apparently, serum NT-proBNP concentrations in the range of 1127-2093 pg/ml can be used as a predictor for a high risk of CVE in the dialysis population. Pronounced structural alterations of the myocardium, left ventricular systolic dysfunction, and hyperhydration are the factors that provide development of CVE on PHD. Large volumes of the PHD substitution solution are associated with a lower incidence of CVE in the dialysis population.

Low Intracellular Water, Overhydration, and Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9113616. [PMID: 33182670 PMCID: PMC7697083 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9113616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2020] [Revised: 10/28/2020] [Accepted: 11/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: In hemodialysis patients, extracellular water (ECW) overload predicts all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. The primary aim of the present study was to analyze changes in post-dialysis (i.e., following removal of excess ECW) ECW, intracellular water (ICW), and the overhydration (OH) parameter over time. Additionally, the association of these parameters with mortality was explored. Patients and methods: Prospective study of prevalent hemodialysis patients (n = 124) followed for a median of 20 (interquartile range (IQR) 8–31) months. In three visits, inflammation (C-reactive protein) and post-dialysis fluid status (bioimpedance, BIS) were assessed. Results: During follow-up, the overhydration (OH) parameter increased (−0.696 ± 1.6 vs. 0.268 ± 1.7 L; p = 0.007) at the expense of a decrease in intracellular water (ICW) (19.90 ± 4.5 vs. 18.72 ± 4.1 24 L; p = 0.006) with a non-significant numerical increase in ECW/ICW ratio (0.795 ± 0.129 vs. 0.850 ± 0.143; p = 0.055). Baseline ICW positively correlated with muscle mass and energy intake and negatively with C-reactive protein and it was lower in those who died than in survivors (15.09 ± 2.36 vs. 18.87 ± 4.52 L; p = 0.004). In Kaplan–Meier analysis, patients with low baseline ICW (≤17 L) and high ECW/ICW ratio (≥0.84) were at an increased risk of death. Baseline ICW was also associated with the risk of death in adjusted Cox proportional hazards models (HR 0.62 (0.40–0.98) p = 0.04). Conclusions: In hemodialysis patients, the post-dialysis OH parameter increased over time while ICW decreased, without changes in ECW. Low baseline post-dialysis ICW correlated with muscle wasting and inflammation and was an independent risk factor for mortality.

Abstract
Introduction The osmotic conductance to glucose (OCG) is a crucial determinant of ultrafiltration (UF) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients and can be used to monitor membrane integrity in patients on long-term PD. It has been proposed that OCG can be assessed based on drained volumes in 2 consecutive 1-hour glucose dwells, usually 1.5% and 4.25% glucose, in a so-called double mini-peritoneal equilibration test (dm-PET). However, recent data indicated that the dm-PET provides a poor estimate of OCG unless the residual volume (RV) is taken into account. We introduce an easy, robust, and accurate method to measure OCG and compare it with conventional methods. Methods In a prospective cohort of 21 PD patients, a modified version of the dm-PET was performed, along with the determination of RV before, between, and after dwells. Based on computer simulations derived from the 3-pore model (TPM) for membrane permeability, we developed and validated a novel single-dwell method to estimate OCG. We next validated the equation in an independent cohort consisting of 32 PD patients. Results Single-dwell OCG correlated more closely with actual UF (r = 0.94 vs. r = 0.07 for conventional dm-PET), sodium sieving, and free water transport (FWT) compared with other methods. These findings were replicated in the validation cohort in which OCG calculated using the single-dwell method closely correlated with parameters of osmotic water transport, even when RV was not taken into account, using only drained volumes. Conclusion We propose a novel, easy, and robust single-dwell method to determine OCG in individual patients and to monitor membrane integrity over time on PD.

Abstract
In an era of evidence-based medicine and dialysis performance measures, there is strong motivation to find specific, objective, quantifiable, and reproducible parameters to characterize the clinical condition of chronic kidney disease patients and to present population-wide statistics that may describe quality of care in dialysis centers. Yet, in the last three decades, several studies demonstrated that while parameters including Kt/V urea, serum phosphorus, parathyroid hormone, serum cholesterol fulfill all these criteria, efforts to optimize these lab parameters failed to improve survival on dialysis. However, subjective assessments of nutrition including subjective global assessment and malnutrition-inflammation score, while not ideally suited for statistical analysis and not optimal from the point of view of scientific methodology due to their general, semi-quantifiable, subjective nature have, nevertheless, proved themselves as some of the strongest predictors of clinical outcomes in the dialysis population. Where does this paradox leave us? We propose that a deeper understanding of relevance of these variables in the dialysis population may improve appreciation of the clinical situation of individual patients and may result in a paradigm shift from dialysis adequacy to quality dialysis.
