Correlation between different levels and patterns of dyslipidemia and glomerular filtration rate in patients with type 2 diabetes: A cross-sectional survey of a regional cohort. J Clin Lab Anal 2023; 37:e24954. [PMID: 37537785 PMCID: PMC10492450 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.24954] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the high cardiovascular risk in patients with diabetic nephropathy, more attention should be paid to lipid levels and dyslipidemia in these patients. The current study investigated the association between single and mixed dyslipidemia patterns, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and different chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages. METHODS This cross-sectional study evaluated 4059 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). TG, TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C were measured. Non-HDL-C and AIP were calculated. We estimated eGFR using the CKD-EPI equation. RESULTS With the progression of the kidney failure stage, mean levels of TG, LDL-C, non-HDL-C, and AIP decreased. HDL-C levels decreased with the advance of the CKD stage in men but did not change significantly in women. The prevalence of single dyslipidemia, including high LDL-C and high non-HDL-C, decreased with the advancing CKD stage. The prevalence of mixed dyslipidemia patterns, including high AIP and high LDL-C, high AIP and high non-HDL-C, showed a significant downward tendency. TG and AIP levels were negatively, and HDL-C levels were positively correlated with eGFR after adjusting for the risk factors. Also, CKD stage 3 was positively related to the risk of high TG and low HDL-C. CONCLUSION This study shows that blood lipids decreased with the progression of renal failure in patients with T2D. However, after adjustment, TG and AIP levels had negative, and HDL-C levels had a positive correlation with eGFR, which could be consistent with the hypothesis that eGFR decreases with increasing TG or AIP levels or decreasing HDL-C levels.

Abstract
Objective Malnutrition is a common complication of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), and it is the risk factor of CKD prognosis. This study aim to evaluate the nutritional status of inpatients with CKD by using the Subjective Global Assessment (SGA), and to analyze the related factors of malnutrition; and to provide effective reference for early detection of malnutrition status in patients with CKD and timely nutrition intervention. Methods A total of 426 patients (238 male patients, 188 female patients) aged 62.62 ± 14.61 and 61.14 ± 14.82, respectively admitted to the Nephrology Department of Wannan Medical College from February 2020 to December 2020 were selected and included in to this study by convenience sampling. 426 patients with CKD were evaluated by SGA. Human body weight, hemoglobin (Hb), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), pre-albumin (PA), qualitative analysis of urinary protein and other laboratory indexes were collected and measured. The correlation between malnutrition and age, education, gender, diet, CKD stage and other factors was analyzed by spearman correlation analysis. Results The incidence of malnutrition was 85.7% among 426 patients with CKD. Gender, age, education level, CKD stage, diabetes mellitus, weight loss and reduced food intake were related to SGA nutritional assessment (P < 0.05). The expression levels of ALB, PA and Hb in the malnutrition group were significantly lower than those in the normal group (P < 0.05). The degree of malnutrition in CKD patients was significant negatively correlated with the expression levels of ALB (r = -0.188), PA (r = -0.262) and Hb (r = -0.176) (P < 0.05). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis model showed that female (OR = 2.155), ≥60 years old (OR = 7.671), weight loss (OR = 10.691), reduced food intake (OR = 28.953), moderate and severe serum ALB expression (OR = 3.391 and 8.326) were risk factors for malnutrition in patients with CKD (P < 0.05). Malnutrition was correlated with the results of qualitative examination of urinary protein (r = 0.268, P < 0.05). Conclusion Gender, age, weight loss, reduced food intake, serum ALB expression were independently associated with malnutrition in patients with chronic kidney disease, Hence, the medical staff should take timely and effective nutrition intervention for the patients with malnutrition, delay the renal function damage of patients with CKD and improve the quality of life of patients. Inpatients with CKD, especially women, should increase their dietary intake, maintain normal weight and improve their nutritional status.

Assessment of the Nutritional Status and Quality of Life in Chronic Kidney Disease and Kidney Transplant Patients: A Comparative Analysis. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14224814. [PMID: 36432502 PMCID: PMC9692759 DOI: 10.3390/nu14224814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Revised: 11/10/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can significantly influence a patient's nutritional status, leading to malnutrition. Malnutrition is associated with an increase in morbidity and hospital admissions, as well as a decrease in functional status. All these factors impact emotional, physical, and psychosocial health, leading to a lower quality of life (QOL). The aim of the study was to assess the nutritional status and QOL in patients with CKD compared to patients after kidney transplantation and determine what factors influence nutritional status and QOL in this patient population. METHODS The study included 167 patients: 39 pre-dialysis patients-group 1; 65 dialysis patients-group 2; 63 kidney transplant patients-group 3. Patients completed the Kidney Disease Quality of Life questionnaire (KDQoL) and the Mini Nutritional Assessment questionnaire (MNA). RESULTS A comparative analysis of the QOL of patients in the three study groups showed no statistically significant differences in the overall KDQoL scores. Factors that affected quality of life included the designated group, determined by disease status, MNA score, patient age, and WHR. Nearly 1/3 of patients from groups 2 and 3 were at risk of malnutrition. CONCLUSIONS A systematic assessment of nutritional status and monitoring of QOL should be integrated into the standard management guidelines for CKD patients.

Abstract
Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing routine hemodialysis (HD) have a high prevalence of protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) and inflammation. The combination of inflammation and PEM is associated with cardiovascular disease and poor outcomes. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is an inflammatory factor that runs parallel to endothelial damage and is closely related to the nutritional status of CKD HD patients. The tool to assess nutrition status is Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS) and to assess endothelial damage is Asymmetric Dimethylarginine (ADMA). It is currently unclear whether there is a correlation between inflammation, malnutrition, and endothelial dysfunction. Therefore the aim of this study is to determine the correlation between IL-6, MIS and ADMA in CKD HD patients.
Methods: A cross-sectional design with analytic observational study was conducted on end stage renal disease patient who undergo routine hemodialysis for at least 2 years with the duration of hemodialysis is 4-5 hours and at least twice per week. IL-6 was examined by kit (ELISA) and ADMA using LC-MS/MS at a certified laboratory in Manado city. History taking and physical examination were used to calculate MIS. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 22.
Results: There were 30 participants consisting of 22 men (72%) and 8 women (28%). The median age of the subjects was 56.50 years. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between IL-6 and ADMA (r = 0.440, p = 0.015), MIS and ADMA (r = 0.378, p = 0.039), and IL-6 and MIS (r = 0.682, p = 0.0001).
Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between IL-6, MIS and ADMA.

Abstract
In chronic kidney disease, anemia and malnutrition coupled with inflammation as malnutrition-inflammation complex syndrom are common and considered as morbidity-mortality factors. The link between these two factors has been described at length in the literature highlighting an association of malnutrition with iron deficiency considered itself as one of the causes of anemia in chronic kidney disease (non-dialysis and hemodialysis). Our study aims to know the prevalence of these two factors in a population of chronic kidney disease (non-dialysis and hemodialysis) of Algiers and to highlight the possible associations between them. PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a multicentre, cross-sectional and descriptive study carried out over a period of 6months (August 2018 to January 2019). Anemia and malnutrition were assessed by various biological and clinical tools such as the malnutrition inflammation score and the International Society of Renal Nutrition and Metabolism criteria. Statistical tests were performed on the R studio software, considering P<0.05 as a statistically significant value. RESULTS Two hundred and nine patients on chronic kidney disease were included (90 non dialysis and 119 hemodialysis). The median age was 70 (IQR=16) for non dialysis and 56 (IQR=16.5) for hemodialysis. The prevalence of anemia was 66.66% (n=60) in non dialysis and 70.58% (n=84) in hemodialysis. Absolute iron deficiency anemia was higher in non dialysis (48.33%; n=29) while functional iron deficiency anemia was higher in hemodialysis (34.52%; n=29). The prevalence of malnutrition by malnutrition inflammation score was relatively low. Only functional iron deficiency anemia was associated with malnutrition. CONCLUSION The prevalence of anemia was higher in Algerian chronic kidney disease (non-dialysis and hemodialysis) unlike malnutrition which remains associated with functional iron deficiency anemia.

Abstract
Malnutrition is frequent in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Nutritional deficiencies may negatively impact quality of life (QOL). This study examines the utility of the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) in detecting nutritional risk (NR) and assesses the correlation between nutritional status and QOL in dialysis patients upon starting a nutritional intervention program (NIP). One hundred and twenty patients were included in this cross-sectional study. The MIS was used to detect NR and the Kidney Disease Quality of Life (KDQOL-SF) instrument version 1.2 was used to assess QOL. 62% of patients were found to be at NR (MIS > 5). Nutritional status was significantly correlated with all generic QOL sub-scales. On a multiple linear regression analysis, malnutrition showed the highest level of explanation in the Kidney Disease Summary Component which explained 28.9% of the variance; the Physical Component Summary which explained 33% of the variance; and the Mental Component Summary which explained 21.5% of the variance. Malnutrition was found to be the most significant predictor of impaired scores on the KDQOL-SF. The use of MIS to identify patients at NR and a nutritional assessment to detect malnutrition in its early stages are important given the effects a NIP can have on improving QOL in HD patients.

Abstract
This nutrition consensus document is the first to coordinate the efforts of three professional organizations - the Brazilian Association of Nutrition (Asbran), the Brazilian Society of Nephrology (SBN), and the Brazilian Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (Braspen/SBNPE) - to select terminology and international standardized tools used in nutrition care. Its purpose is to improve the training delivered to nutritionists working with adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Eleven questions were developed concerning patient screening, care, and nutrition outcome management. The recommendations set out in this document were developed based on international guidelines and papers published in electronic databases such as PubMed, EMBASE(tm), CINHAL, Web of Science, and Cochrane. From a list of internationally standardized terms, twenty nutritionists selected the ones they deemed relevant in clinical practice involving outpatients with CKD. The content validity index (CVI) was calculated with 80% agreement in the answers. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) framework was used to assess the strength of evidence and recommendations. A total of 107 terms related to Nutrition Assessment and Reassessment, 28 to Diagnosis, nine to Intervention, and 94 to Monitoring and Evaluation were selected. The list of selected terms and identified tools will be used in the development of training programs and the implementation of standardized nutrition terminology for nutritionists working with patients with chronic kidney disease in Brazil.

Abstract
Uremic sarcopenia is a frequent condition present in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and is characterized by reduced muscle mass, muscle strength and physical performance. Uremic sarcopenia is related to an increased risk of hospitalization and all-causes mortality. This pathological condition is caused not only by advanced age but also by others factors typical of CKD patients such as metabolic acidosis, hemodialysis therapy, low-grade inflammatory status and inadequate protein-energy intake. Currently, treatments available to ameliorate uremic sarcopenia include nutritional therapy (oral nutritional supplement, inter/intradialytic parenteral nutrition, enteral nutrition, high protein and fiber diet and percutaneous endoscopic gastrectomy) and a personalized program of physical activity. The aim of this review is to analyze the possible benefits induced by nutritional therapy alone or in combination with a personalized program of physical activity, on onset and/or progression of uremic sarcopenia.

The Influence of Inflammation on Anemia in CKD Patients. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21030725.

Abstract
Anemia is frequently observed in the course of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and it is associated with diminishing the quality of a patient’s life. It also enhances morbidity and mortality and hastens the CKD progression rate. Patients with CKD frequently suffer from a chronic inflammatory state which is related to a vast range of underlying factors. The results of studies have demonstrated that persistent inflammation may contribute to the variability in Hb levels and hyporesponsiveness to erythropoietin stimulating agents (ESA), which are frequently observed in CKD patients. The understanding of the impact of inflammatory cytokines on erythropoietin production and hepcidin synthesis will enable one to unravel the net of interactions of multiple factors involved in the pathogenesis of the anemia of chronic disease. It seems that anti-cytokine and anti-oxidative treatment strategies may be the future of pharmacological interventions aiming at the treatment of inflammation-associated hyporesponsiveness to ESA. The discovery of new therapeutic approaches towards the treatment of anemia in CKD patients has become highly awaited. The treatment of anemia with erythropoietin (EPO) was associated with great benefits for some patients but not all.
