RESUMO

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) disproportionately affects minorities in the United States, including the Hispanic/Latine population, and is a public health concern in Latin American countries. An emphasis on healthy dietary patterns, including the Mediterranean and the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diets, has been suggested as they are associated with a lower incidence of CKD, slower CKD progression, and lower mortality in kidney failure. However, their applicability may be limited in people from Latin America. The Dieta de la Milpa (Diet of the Cornfield) was recently described as the dietary pattern of choice for people from Mesoamerica (Central Mexico and Central America). This dietary pattern highlights the intake of four plant-based staple foods from this geographical region, corn/maize, common beans, pumpkins/squashes, and chilies, complemented with seasonal and local intake of plant-based foods and a lower intake of animal-based foods, collectively classified into ten food groups. Limited preclinical and clinical studies suggest several health benefits, including cardiometabolic health, but there is currently no data concerning CKD. In this narrative review, we describe and highlight the potential benefits of the Dieta de la Milpa in CKD, including acid-base balance, protein source, potassium and phosphorus management, impact on the gut microbiota, inflammation, and cultural appropriateness. Despite these potential benefits, this dietary pattern has not been tested in people with CKD. Therefore, we suggest key research questions targeting measurement of adherence, feasibility, and effectiveness of the Dieta de la Milpa in people with CKD.

RESUMO

Vascular calcifications affect 80% to 90% of chronic kidney disease patients and are a predictive factor of cardiovascular mortality. Sarcopenia and protein-energy wasting syndrome are also associated with mortality. The aim was to assess the relationship between vascular calcification, sarcopenia, and protein-energy wasting syndrome (PEW) in automated peritoneal dialysis patients. Fifty-one maintenance automated peritoneal dialysis patients were included (27 were male, mean age 39 ± 14 years). Vascular calcification was assessed based on abdomen, pelvis, and hand radiographs. Sarcopenia was assessed with bioimpedance analysis and a hand grip strength test. The Malnutrition-Inflammation Score and the presence of PEW were also assessed. Vascular calcification was present in 21 patients (41.2%). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (p = 0.001), Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (p = 0.022), PEW (p = 0.049), sarcopenia (p = 0.048), and diabetes (p = 0.010) were associated with vascular calcification. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (p = 0.006) was the only variable associated independently with vascular calcification. In conclusion, there is association between vascular calcification, PEW, and sarcopenia in patients with maintenance automated peritoneal dialysis. These associations are not independent of age. This demonstrates the importance of nutritional status in the prevention of vascular calcification.

RESUMO

Compared to body mass index, waist circumference (WC), and adiposity measurements, adipose tissue (AT) morpho-functionality evaluations are better predictors of cardiometabolic abnormalities (CA). The present study establishes a dysfunctional adiposity index (DAI) as an early marker of CA based on adipocytes morpho-functional abnormalities. DAI was established in 340 subjects without cardiovascular risk factors selected from a cross-sectional study (n=1600). Then, DAI was calculated in 36 healthy subjects who underwent subcutaneous AT biopsy. The correlation of DAI with adipocyte morphology (size/number) and functionality (adiponectin/leptin ratio) was analyzed. The DAI cut-off point was identified and its independent association with CA was determined in 1418 subjects from the cross-sectional study. The constant parameters to calculate the DAI were [WC/[22.79+[2.68*BMI]]]*[triglycerides (TG, mmol/L)/1.37]*[1.19/high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C, mmol/L)] for males, and [WC/[24.02+[2.37*BMI]]]*[TG(mmol/L)/1.32]*[1.43/HDL-C(mmol/L)] for females. DAI correlated with adipocytes mean area, adipocyte number and adiponectin/leptin ratio. DAI ≥1.065 was independently associated with diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, subclinical atherosclerosis, and hypertension. The present study highlights that DAI is associated with early CA independently of adiposity and other risk factors. Since DAI is obtained using accessible parameters, it can be easily incorporated into clinical practice for early identification of AT abnormalities in apparently healthy subjects.

RESUMO

The number of patients with advanced / end-stage chronic kidney disease (ESRD) with some modality of renal replacement therapy (RRT) has been on the rise significantly. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) represents 11% of the world dialysis population. Different options for RRT have been associated with a greater risk of developing complications, such infections, metabolic alterations and nutritional complications, specifically a higher incidence of protein-energy wasting (PEW), ranging from 32 to 49% in PD patients. Peritoneal transporter type plays an important role in the development of nutritional complications, where the high transporter compared to the slow or low transporter has been associated with a higher nutritional risk by increasing the risk of volume overload, hypertension, and inflammation; as well as greater loss of proteins in the dialysate due to the greater number of replacements that characterize its prescription. Nutrition specialists needs to consider diverse aspects to achieve an individualized nutritional approach based on the characteristics of the patient, where knowing peritoneal transporter type is essential. The aim of this study is to review the evidence available to date regarding nutritional therapy in patients with peritoneal dialysis, as well as to analyze some basic aspects of dialysis therapy.


El número de pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica avanzada/terminal (ERCT) con alguna modalidad de terapia de reemplazo renal (TRR) ha ido en ascenso. A nivel mundial, la diálisis peritoneal (DP) representa el 11% del total de pacientes con TRR. Las diferentes opciones de TRR se han asociado con un mayor riesgo para desarrollar complicaciones infecciosas, metabólicas y nutricionales, reportándose cifras alarmantes de desgaste proteico energético (DPE) que oscilan entre 32-49% en pacientes en DP. El tipo de transportador peritoneal juega un rol importante en el desarrollo de complicaciones nutricionales, donde el transportador alto, en comparación con el lento o bajo, se ha asociado con un mayor riesgo nutricional al incrementar el riesgo de sobrecarga de volumen, hipertensión e inflamación; así como mayor pérdida de proteínas en el dializado por el mayor número de recambios que caracteriza su prescripción. Por tal motivo, el profesional de la nutrición debe considerar diversos aspectos para lograr un abordaje nutricional individualizado a partir de las características del paciente, en el que conocer el tipo de transportador peritoneal es fundamental. El objetivo del presente trabajo es realizar una revisión de la evidencia disponible hasta la fecha respecto a la terapia nutricional del paciente con diálisis peritoneal, así como analizar algunos aspectos básicos de la terapia dialítica.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Objective: to analyze the association between phase angle (PA) and mid arm circumference (MAC) with protein energy wasting (PEW) in renal replacement therapy (RRT) patients. Methods: cross-sectional study. Hemodiafiltration (HDF) and automated peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients were enrolled in the study. MAC and body composition were measured using impedance bioelectric (BIA); PA, fat free mass (FFM), fat mass (FM) and ECW/TBW were obtained. Biochemical (serum albumin and cholesterol) and dietary data (energy and protein intake) were collected. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Patients were classified with PEW according to ISRNM criteria (low BMI, low albumin or cholesterol concentrations, low muscle mass and overhydration). Cut-off point of PA and MAC was obtained by ROC analysis. Logistic regression analysis was applied to evaluate the ability of both indicators to predict PEW. Results: sixty-nine patients were included in the study. Fifty-two (52%) were female. Thirty-nine (39%) patients had PEW. The ROC curve reveals that the optimal PA cut-off value for malnutrition risk was 4.64° with 77.8% sensitivity and 76.2% specificity. For MAC, a cut-off value of 29.6 cm shows a sensitivity of 66.6% and specificity of 69.0%. Both indicators showed significant association to PEW after multivariate adjustment. Conclusion: PEW is present almost in 39% of the RRT patients. PA and MAC are useful, simple and independents indicators for predicting PEW in Chronic Kidney disease patients on RRT.


INTRODUCCIÓN: Objetivo: analizar la asociación entre el ángulo de fase (AF) y la circunferencia media del brazo (CMB) con la presencia de desgaste proteico energético (DPE) en pacientes en terapia de remplazo renal (TRR). Métodos: estudio transversal. Fueron incluidos pacientes en hemodiafiltración y en diálisis peritoneal automatizada. Se tomaron mediciones de CMB y de composición corporal utilizando bioimpedancia eléctrica (AF, masa libre de grasa, masa grasa y agua extracelular/agua corporal total). Se obtuvieron mediciones de albúmina y colesterol y se cuantificó el consumo dietético de energía y proteína. Se calculó el IMC. Se diagnosticó el DPE utilizando los criterios de ISRNM (bajo IMC, baja albúmina o colesterol, baja musculatura y sobrehidratación). Se evaluó la habilidad del AF y CMB para predecir DPE a través de una regresión logística. Se obtuvieron puntos de corte para ambos indicadores utilizando una prueba ROC. Se evaluó la habilidad del AF y CMB para predecir DPE a través de una regresión logística. Resultados: se incluyeron 69 pacientes en el estudio, el 52% de sexo femenino, y el 39% cumplieron criterios para DPE. El AF y el CMB predicen de forma adecuada el DPE según el análisis multivariado. Los puntos de corte obtenidos por la prueba ROC son < 4,64° para AF, con una sensibilidad del 77,8% y una especificidad del 76,2%, y < 29,6 cm para la CMB, con una sensibilidad del 66,6% y una especificidad del 69%. Conclusión: el DPE está presente en el 39% de pacientes en TRR. El AF y CMB son indicadores independientes, útiles y simples para predecir DPE en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica en TRR.

RESUMO

La pérdida de la funcionalidad renal ocasiona diversas alteraciones en el metabolismo de los electrolitos, entre ellos el acúmulo de fósforo. La hiperfosfatemia se asocia con un mayor riesgo de mortalidad cardiovascular en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica (ERC), por lo que es necesario el inicio de diversas estrategias terapéuticas para disminuir las concentraciones séricas de dicho mineral. El objetivo del presente trabajo es realizar una revisión de las estrategias dieté- ticas que han mostrado efectividad en la prevención y tratamiento de la hiperfosfatemia en el paciente con ERC (AU)


Patients with renal impairment progressively lose the ability to excrete phosphorus. High serum phosphorus has been linked to cardiovascular mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Serum phosphorus levels are managed with diverse therapeutically approaches. This work aims to conduct a review of the nutritional strategies that are used in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in CKD patients (AU)

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: weight and height measurements are important data for the nutritional assessment of elderly people and the implementation of the nutritional care process. Malnutrition is common in this population, who has high rates of disability that difficult to measurement this variables. OBJECTIVE: evaluate the validity of predictive equations for weight and height that include body circumferences created for brazilian population, in mexican elderly people. METHODS: this is a comparative, observational, prospective and cross-sectional study, 61 elderly were evaluated. Body weight, height, half span, calf, arm and abdominal circumferences were determinated. Weight and height were estimated with de predictive equations published by Rabito et al. Bland-Altman analysis and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient were used to assess the levels of agreement between the estimated and the measured values. The level of statistical significance was p < 0.05. RESULTS: the age mean was 78.7 ± 8.7 and 55.7% were females. The weight mean was 61.9 ± 14.1 kg, height mean was 155.4 ± 9.5 cm and Body Mass Index (BMI) mean corresponded to 25.5 ± 5.1 kg/m. The Bland-Altman plots indicated that the 95% confidence interval (95% IC) limits for the difference between real and estimated weight ranged from -14.3 kg to 8.1 kg, the mean of the difference or systematic error (SE) was -3.1 kg, we observed an statistically significant coefficient of 0.12 (p < 0.03). The 95% IC limits for the difference between real and estimated height ranged from -11.1 to 15.9 cm, the diffe rence mean or SE of 2.4 cm, we observed a coefficient of -0.04 (p = 0.67) . Intraclass Correlation Coefficient of 0.72 (p < 0.00) and 0.88 (p < 0.00) were obtained for weight and height, respectively. CONCLUSION: the equations developed by Rabito showed a good agreement when compared with the actual weight and height of elderly people. We observed variations in the estimated weight in obesity elderlys.


Introducción: el conocimiento del peso y la talla es fundamental en la evaluación del estado nutricional en el adulto mayor, permitiendo la implementación del proceso de cuidado nutricional. La desnutrición es común en este grupo poblacional, el cual usualmente presenta diversas situaciones clínicas que dificultan la medición de peso y talla. Objetivos: evaluar la validez de las ecuaciones para estimar peso y talla basadas en circunferencias corporales propuestas para población brasileña en adultos mayores mexicanos. Métodos: estudio comparativo, observacional, prospectivo y transversal en 61 adultos mayores. Las medidas antropométricas recolectadas fueron peso y talla, Extensión de Media Brazada (EMB), Circunferencia Abdominal (CA), Circunferencia Media de Brazo (CMB) y Circunferencia de Pantorrilla (CP). Se estimó el peso y la talla con las ecuaciones propuestas por Rabito y cols. Se utilizó el método Bland-Altman y el Coeficiente de Correlación Intraclase para evaluar la concordancia entre los valores reales y estimados. Se consideró significancia estadística un valor de p < 0,05. Resultados: la edad promedio de los participantes fue de 78,7 ± 8,7 años. El 55,7% (n = 34) fueron mujeres. La media para el peso fue de 61,9 ± 14,1 kg, para la talla de 155,4 ± 9,5 cm y para el Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC) fue de 25,5 ± 5,1 kg/m2. Mediante el método Bland-Altman los límites de intervalo de concordancia de 95% para la diferencia del peso real y el estimado fueron de -14,3 a 8,1 kg, con una media de la diferencia o error sistemático (ES) de -3,1 cm; se observó un coeficiente de 0,12 que fue estadísticamente significativo (p = 0,03). Para la talla se observa un intervalo de confianza de la diferencia entre la talla real y estimada de -11,1 a 15,9, con una media de la diferencia o ES de 2,4 cm y un coeficiente de -0,04 que no fue significativo (p = 0,67). La concordancia entre el peso real y el estimado, según el coeficiente de correlación intraclase, fue de 0,72 (p < 0,00), en el caso de la talla real, y la estimada fue de 0,88 (p < 0,00). Conclusiones: las ecuaciones propuestas por Rabito muestran una buena concordancia con los valores de peso y talla reales en adultos mayores, observando mayor variación para los valores de peso estimado en población con obesidad.
