Abstract: ObjectiveThe available evidence regarding the association of immune nutrition status with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is limited. Thus, the present study examined whether immunonutrition indices were associated with renal function and mortality among CKD individuals.Research design and methodsThis study enrolled 6,099 U.S. adults with CKD from the NHANES 2005–2018 database. Participants were matched with National Death Index records until 31 December 2019 to determine mortality outcomes. The time-dependent re… Show more

BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the common chronic diseases, and malnutrition and inflammation play a key role in the development of CKD. The advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) is a novel index of nutrition and inflammation, and its association with CKD has not yet been clarified. The aim of this study was to explore the potential association between ALI and CKD.MethodsWe conducted a cross-sectional survey using data extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2003–2018). Weighted multivariate logistic regression was used to assess the association between ALI and CKD, and smoothed curve fitting and threshold effect analyses were used to describe the nonlinear association between ALI and CKD. Subgroup analyses were performed to further assess the influence of other covariates on the relationship between ALI and CKD.ResultsA total of 39,469 adult participants were included in the study, of whom 7,204 (18.25%) were diagnosed with CKD. After adjusting for multiple confounders, we found a significant negative correlation between ALI and CKD (OR = 0.93; 95%CI, 0.91–0.95; p < 0.0001). The risk of CKD tended to decrease with increasing quartiles of ALI. Smoothed curve fitting showed an L-shaped negative correlation between ALI and CKD. Threshold analysis showed a saturation effect of ALI at the inflection point of 55.09. Subgroup analyses and interaction tests showed that this negative association was maintained across age, sex, race, BMI, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and cancer subgroups (P for interaction >0.05).ConclusionOur findings suggest a significant correlation between ALI and CKD in the US adult population. However, more large-scale prospective studies are still needed to further confirm our findings.

Objective: Osteoporosis is prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), with risk increasing as CKD progresses, subsequently elevating fracture risk. While previous studies have shown a link between low skeletal muscle mass and osteoporosis in the general population, there is limited research exploring this relationship in patients with advanced CKD (stages 3-5D). This study aimed to evaluate whether skeletal muscle area (SMA), as measured by abdominal CT, is correlated with bone mineral density (BMD) in advanced CKD patients beginning hemodialysis. Methods: This single-center, retrospective cohort study included patients who started maintenance hemodialysis at Daejeon St. Mary’s Hospital from January 2018 to September 2021. Patients who underwent abdominal CT and BMD assessments within three months of dialysis initiation were enrolled, resulting in a sample of 87 individuals. Baseline characteristics were analyzed, with patients stratified by sex and SMA quartiles. Pearson’s correlation and multivariate regression analyses were conducted to the relationship between SMA and BMD T-scores. Results: The study cohort had an average age of 65.4 years, with 52.9% of participants being male. Male patients exhibited significantly higher SMA and BMD T-scores in both the lumbar spine and femur compared to female patients. SMA showed the strongest positive correlation with BMD at both sites (lumbar spine, r = 0.424; femur, r = 0.514; p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis identified SMA as an independent positive predictor of BMD, while alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was independently associated with lower femur BMD. In the SMA-based subgroup analysis, patients with lower SMA had significantly lower BMD T-scores and a higher risk of osteoporosis. Logistic regression indicated that patients in the lowest SMA quartile had substantially increased odds of osteoporosis compared to those in the highest quartile, with an adjusted odds ratio of 30.59 (p = 0.008). Conclusions: Lower skeletal muscle mass is significantly associated with lower bone density and a higher risk of osteoporosis in advanced CKD patients initiating hemodialysis. SMA, as measured by abdominal CT, may serve as a useful marker for identifying patients at elevated osteoporosis risk in this population.

Background and Objectives: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing public health problem and one of the leading causes of premature death worldwide. The progressive nature of CKD is associated with serious complications that can reduce the quality of life in CKD patients. Additional factors that can worsen well-being include dialysis treatment, malnutrition, inflammation, and lack of social support. The aim of our study was to analyze the quality of life of CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis and its association with certain biochemical and immunonutritional parameters, as well as with social support. Materials and Methods: This research was conducted as a cross-sectional study that included 170 patients, divided into two groups: a group of patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD group) (n = 85), and a control group of non-hemodialysis patients (group with CKD stage 3–4) (n = 85). The Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) score was used to assess the quality of life of the study population. Measurement of biochemical and immunonutritional parameters was also performed in all patients. The Oslo-3 Social Support Scale (OSSS-3) was used to analyze social support. Results: The HRQoL score was significantly lower in HD patients compared to patients with CKD stage 3–4 (0.701 ± 0.137 vs. 0.832 ± 0.122, p < 0.001). It declined significantly as the concentrations of urea (β = −0.347, p < 0.001), creatinine (β = −0.699, p = 0.005), uric acid (β = −0.184, p = 0.016), β2-microglobulin (β = −0.432, p < 0.001), and parathormone (β = −0.209, p = 0.006) increased in HD patients. In addition to uremic toxins, an increase in glucose (β = −0.278, p = 0.010) and triglyceride (β = −0.354, p = 0.001) concentrations was associated with poor HRQoL in patients with CKD stage 3–4. There was a significant connection between the Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, and Platelet (HALP) score and HRQoL in HD patients (β = 0.229, p = 0.035). Additionally, C-reactive protein (β = −0.361, p < 0.001) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (β = −0.288, p < 0.001), as markers of systemic inflammation, directly affected HRQoL in HD patients. In both study groups, perceived social support positively influenced the HRQoL scores (β = 0.192, p = 0.012 for hemodialysis; β = 0.225, p = 0.038 for non-hemodialysis). Conclusions: There is a decline in HRQoL in chronic hemodialysis patients, significantly affected by certain biochemical and immunonutritional parameters, along with perceived social support.
