Abstract :
Elevated protein catabolism and protein malnutrition are common in patients with chronic kidney disease CKD and end stage renal disease ESRD . The underlying etiology includes, but is not limited to, metabolic acidosis intestinal dysbiosis systemic inflammation with activation of complements, endothelin 1 and renin angiotensin aldosterone RAAS axis anabolic hormone resistance energy expenditure elevation and uremic toxin accumulation. All of these derangements can further worsen kidney function, leading to poor patient outcomes. Many of these CKD related derangements can be prevented and substantially reversed, representing an area of great potential to improve CKD and ESRD care. This review integrates known information and recent advances in the area of protein nutrition and malnutrition in CKD and ESRD. Management recommendations are summarized. Thorough understanding the pathogenesis and etiology of protein malnutrition in CKD and ESRD patients will undoubtedly facilitate the design and development of more effective strategies to optimize protein nutrition and improve outcomes Suraj Kumar Singh | Atul Verma | Hulsi Sahu "Protein Energy Malnutrition in CKD Patients" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-2 | Issue-5 , August 2018, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd15704.pdf Paper URL: http://www.ijtsrd.com/other-scientific-research-area/other/15704/protein-energy-malnutrition-in-ckd-patients/suraj-kumar-singh
