Association of Neutrophil and Albumin With Mortality Risk in Patients Receiving  Peritoneal Dialysis
Inflammation and nutrition have been recognized as predicting mortality in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD). Serum neutrophil and albumin are crucial factors in inflammation and nutrition status. Up until now, the synergistic effect of neutrophil and albumin on mortality prediction in PD patients is still being determined. Our study sought to assess the effect of the interaction between neutrophils and albumin on the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality patients receiving PD.

Hypoglycemia and Mortality Risk in Incident Hemodialysis Patients
Hypoglycemia is a frequent occurrence in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients due to alterations in glucose and insulin metabolism. However, there are sparse data examining the predictors and clinical implications of hypoglycemia including mortality risk among incident hemodialysis patients. (Source: Journal of Renal Nutrition)

The association of frailty and malnutrition with dietary intake and gastrointestinal symptoms in people with kidney failure: 2-year prospective study
Frailty and malnutrition are both associated with worsening morbidity and mortality and become more prevalent in the elderly and as kidney function declines. Anorexia and reduced oral intake are common features of both frailty and malnutrition. However, there is sparse data evaluating the impact of other gastrointestinal symptoms, such as taste changes, on rates of frailty and malnutrition in people with kidney failure. The aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of frailty and malnutrition and their association with dietary intake and nutrition-related symptoms in people with kidney failure.

Wernicke's Encephalopathy in Acute and Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review
Thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency is relatively common in patients with kidney disease. Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) is caused by vitamin B1 deficiency. Our aim was to systematically review the signs and symptoms of WE in patients with kidney disease. We conducted a systematic literature review on WE in kidney disease and recorded clinical and radiographic characteristics, treatment and outcome. In total 323 manuscripts were reviewed, which yielded 46 cases diagnosed with acute and chronic kidney disease and WE published in 37 reports. (Source: Journal of Renal Nutrition)

Circulating concentrations of advanced glycation end products, carboxymethyl lysine and methylglyoxal are associated with renal function in individuals with diabetes
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the most severe chronic complication of diabetes, and is associated with higher level of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic potential of combined detection of multiple serum AGEs in diagnosing DKD. Methods: Serum AGEs, N ε-(carboxymethyl) lysine (CML), Nε-(carboxyethyl) lysine (CEL) and methylglyoxal (MGO) levels were measured by ELISA in 176 individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Participants were classified into normo- (NAU group), micro- (MAU group) and macroalbuminuria group (MAAU group) according to their ur inary a...
