Protein-Energy Wasting and Mortality in Chronic Kidney Disease
Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with an increased death risk from cardiovascular diseases. However, while even minor renal dysfunction is an independent predictor of adverse cardiovascular prognosis, PEW becomes clinically manifest at an advanced stage, early before or during the dialytic stage. Mechanisms causing loss of mu...
متن کاملA balancing act: protein-energy wasting in chronic kidney disease.
PROTEIN ENERGY WASTING and its extreme form, cachexia, is common among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This maladaptive metabolic state is fueled by inflammation and is characterized by anorexia, increased energy expenditure, ineffective utilization of nutrients, and augmented protein catabolism leading to loss of lean body mass. At the core of the regulation of energy balance is th...
متن کاملWasting in chronic kidney disease
Wasting/cachexia is prevalent among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is to be distinguished from malnutrition, which is defined as the consequence of insufficient food intake or an improper diet. Malnutrition is characterized by hunger, which is an adaptive response, whereas anorexia is prevalent in patients with wasting/cachexia. Energy expenditure decreases as a protective mecha...
متن کاملEtiology and Outcome of Chronic Kidney Disease in Iranian Children
Background Considering the significant geographical and ethnical differences in pattern of incidence, etiology and outcome of chronic kidney disease (CKD), the present study aimed to assess the etiology and outcome of CKD in Iranian children. Materials and Methods In a cross-sectional study etiology and outcome of 372 children aged 3 months to 18 years with CKD was studied during the period 199...
متن کاملA proposed nomenclature and diagnostic criteria for protein-energy wasting in acute and chronic kidney disease.
The recent research findings concerning syndromes of muscle wasting, malnutrition, and inflammation in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or acute kidney injury (AKI) have led to a need for new terminology. To address this need, the International Society of Renal Nutrition and Metabolism (ISRNM) convened an expert panel to review and develop standard terminologies and definitions rel...
