Abstrakt: Background: Malnutrition-inflammation complex syndrome (MICS), hyperhomocysteinemia, calcium and phosphate levels derangement have been predicted as important contributing factors for the progression of cardiovascular burden. Among patients with earlier stage of CKD, hypoalbuminaemia and inflammation deliberated as non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors, which add more burden to circulatory disease, mortality and rapid advancement to CKD stage 5.
Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate inflammation and nutritional status of CKD patients not on dialysis using Malnutrition inflammation score (MIS) and to verify the association with mortality in the follow-up period.
Methods and Material: In this prospective cohort study 129 (66 males, 63 females) pre-dialysis CKD patients enrolled between June 2013 to August 2014 and censored until March 2017. Malnutrition and Inflammation assessed using Malnutrition inflammation score. Blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, albumin, Interleukin - 6, highly sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP), total cholesterol and anthropometric data were analyzed.
Results: The Malnutrition inflammation score in pre-dialysis CKD patients ranged from 0 to 18 with the median score of two. During 36 or more months of follow-up, there were 30 (23.2%) deaths, 35 (27%) patients initiated on hemodialysis, one (0.7%) patient was initiated on peritoneal dialysis, two (1.4%) patients underwent renal transplantation and two (1.4%) patients were lost for follow-up. In this study, 33% had varying degree of malnutrition and inflammation. Patients who had MIS ≥7 had significant increase in IL-6 (p = 0.003) and HsCRP levels (p < 0.001) when compared with other tertiles of MIS. ROC curve analysis of MIS showed 56.5% sensitivity and 81% specificity in predicting death rate (AUC 0.709; 95% CI 0.604-0.815, p < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed MIS ≥7 had a strong association (log rank test, p < 0.001) with mortality during 36 and more months of follow-up time. In unadjusted analyses, MIS (HR 1.140; 95% CI 1.054-1.233; p < 0.05) and HsCRP (HR 2.369; 95% CI 1.779-3.154; p < 0.001) found to be predictors of mortality. MIS and HsCRP remained predictors of mortality even after adjustments.
Conclusions: This study shows MIS is an important factor that determines mortality in pre-dialysis CKD patients during 36 and more months of follow-up time. Patients with MIS ≥7 have high risk for mortality and needs close monitoring. In clinical setting application of MIS has a greater utilization in pre-dialysis CKD patients. Further research with longitudinal assessment of MIS and its association with outcomes are warranted. Pre-dialysis CKD patients should be assessed for their nutritional status and inflammation using MIS regularly to prevent malnutrition and its associated complications through appropriate medical and nutritional intervention.
