The Impact of Combined Nutrition and Exercise Interventions in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease

Combined nutrition and exercise interventions potentially improve protein-energy wasting/malnutrition-related outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim was to systematically review the effect of combined interventions on nutritional status, muscle strength, physical performance and QoL. MEDLINE, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Science and Google Scholar were searched for studies up to the date of July 2023. Methodological quality was appraised with the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Ten randomized controlled trials (nine publications) were included (334 patients). No differences were observed in body mass index, lean body mass or leg strength. An improvement was found in the six-minute walk test (6-MWT) (n = 3, MD 27.2, 95%CI [7 to 48], p = 0.008), but not in the timed up-and-go test. No effect was found on QoL. A positive impact on 6-MWT was observed, but no improvements were detected in nutritional status, muscle strength or QoL. Concerns about reliability and generalizability arise due to limited statistical power and study heterogeneity of the studies included.</p

Predicting resting energy expenditure in underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese adult hospital patients

BACKGROUND: When indirect calorimetry is not available, predictive equations are used to estimate resing energy expenditure (REE). There is no consensus about which equation to use in hospitalized patients. The objective of this study is to examine the validity of REE predictive equations for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese inpatients and outpatients by comparison with indirect calorimetry. METHODS: Equations were included when based on weight, height, age, and/or gender. REE was measured with indirect calorimetry. A prediction between 90 and 110% of the measured REE was considered accurate. The bias and root-mean-square error (RMSE) were used to evaluate how well the equations fitted the REE measurement. Subgroup analysis was performed for BMI. A new equation was developed based on regression analysis and tested. RESULTS: 513 general hospital patients were included, (253 F, 260 M), 237 inpatients and 276 outpatients. Fifteen predictive equations were used. The most used fixed factors (25 kcal/kg/day, 30 kcal/kg/day and 2000 kcal for female and 2500 kcal for male) were added. The percentage of accurate predicted REE was low in all equations, ranging from 8 to 49%. Overall the new equation performed equal to the best performing Korth equation and slightly better than the well-known WHO equation based on weight and height (49% vs 45% accurate). Categorized by BMI subgroups, the new equation, Korth and the WHO equation based on weight and height performed best in all categories except from the obese subgroup. The original Harris and Benedict (HB) equation was best for obese patients. CONCLUSIONS: REE predictive equations are only accurate in about half the patients. The WHO equation is advised up to BMI 30, and HB equation is advised for obese (over BMI 30). Measuring REE with indirect calorimetry is preferred, and should be used when available and feasible in order to optimize nutritional support in hospital inpatients and outpatients with different degrees of malnutrition
