Over 50% of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients die of cardiovascular disease. ESRD patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis are repeatedly exposed to oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to find the relationship between lifestyle factors, nutritional status, calcium-phosphate metabolism, and selected redox parameters such as glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), uric acid (UA), and total antioxidant capacity expressed as ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). The study included 97 ESRD hemodialysis patients and 42 controls with no renal disease. Patients were asked to complete a questionnaire which gathered information on their physical activity, hours of sleep, smoking, and frequency of fruit and vegetable intake; the blood samples were then drawn before the midweek dialysis session. The ESRD patients had lower levels of GR, GPx, and SOD activity, a lower level of FRAP, and a higher UA concentration than the control group. The FRAP value decreased with age (ρ=−0.32, p=0.001); smokers had a significantly lower SOD activity in comparison to nonsmokers (p=0.03). In the ESRD patients, FRAP and UA correlated with both albumin (ρ=0.26, p=0.011; ρ=0.41, p=0.006, respectively) and prealbumin (ρ=0.34, p≤0.001; ρ=0.28, p=0.006, respectively), whereas UA, GR, GPx, and SOD correlated with calcium, UA, GR, and GPx with phosphate level. Based on the findings, there are weak associations between nutritional status and selected redox parameters in hemodialyzed patients. Further studies are needed to establish if diet modifications and adequate nutritional status can positively impact the antioxidant capacity in this group of patients.

Abstract. Background: Dyspepsia is highly prevalent and easily assessed in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) and is not a traditional predictor of malnutrition. We sought to establish an association between dyspeptic symptoms and nutritional status in ESRD patients undergoing maintenance HD. Methods: We studied 106 ESRD patients on HD. Dyspepsia was assessed through the Porto Alegre Dyspeptic Symptoms Questionnaire (PADYQ). Scores equal to or greater than 6 classified patients as dyspeptic. Nutritional status was evaluated using serum chemistry, total body mass, muscle mass, and dietary intake. Nutritional status was compared between dyspeptic and non-dyspeptic patients. The association of PADYQ scores and the presence of dyspepsia with nutritional variables were tested. Multivariate analysis was performed to test dyspepsia as an independent predictor for dietary intake. Results: There were 41 (38.7 %) dyspeptics. Protein intake (g/kg/day) and calorie intake (kcal/kg/day) were lower among dyspeptics compared to non-dyspeptics, 1.0 ± 0.5 vs 1.3 ± 0.5 (p = 0.01) and 23.0 ± 9.2 vs 27.4 ± 10.0 (p = 0.02), respectively. More dyspeptics than non-dyspeptics presenting protein-energy wasting based on protein and calorie intake, 41.4 vs 15.3 % (p = 0.01) and 68.2 vs 38.4 % (p = 0.02), respectively. PAQYQ score was negatively correlated with protein intake (r = - 0.20; p = 0.03) and calorie intake (r = - 0.19; p = 0.04). Dyspepsia was able to predict protein (b = - 0.26; p = 0.01) and calorie (b = - 4.42; p = 0.02) intake. Conclusions: Dyspepsia is associated with low protein and calorie intake. Screening of dyspeptic symptoms can be routinely performed aiming to improve HD patients’ nutritional status.
