“…The subgroup analysis of two studies on non‐dialysis patients displayed that probiotic supplements significantly reduced urea (MD = −30.01; 95% CI = [−56.78, −3.25]; P = 0.03), with high heterogeneity ( P = 0.08; I 2 = 68%). In the four studies, on dialysis patients, the subgroup analysis exhibited no significant difference between probiotics and placebo (MD = 0.1; 95% CI = [−9.28, 9.48], P = 0.98), with no heterogeneity ( P = 0.65, I 2 = 0%) (Fig. ).…”

“…In addition, the risk of bias of each included study was shown in Table . One of the 10 studies was at a high risk of bias, 4 studies were at a low risk of bias, and the other 5 studies were at an unclear risk of bias according to the Cochrane Collaboration's assessment. The funnel plots of each outcome (Appendix S4) and the Egger's test (urea: P = 0.293, uric acid: P = 0.659, CRP: P = 0.770, creatinine: P = 0.686, eGFR: P = 0.051) showed no evidence of publication bias.…”

“…Other tools used included nonvalidated patient administered questionnaires and the Rome II (for functional bowel disorders) and Rome III (for IBS) criteria. Other methods of diagnosis included an interview process, GSQ, laboratory stool analysis, Izumo Scale, 34 Bristol Stool Chart, 35 an unspecified validated Table 4 The prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in haemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, reported across the 11 studies with a Newcastle Ottawa Scale (NOS) score greater than five 5,[11][12][13][21][22][23][24]26,27,31…”

“…sí observaron mejorías en la sintomatología gastrointestinal en 21 pacientes en hemodiálisis, sin observar cambios significativos en marcadores inflamatorios, tras 2 meses de suplementación con un producto que contenía L. acidophilus y B. animalis subesp. lactis, 2,3g de inulina y 1,5g de omega-3 47 . Este mismo grupo de trabajo reportó cambios en la composición de la microbiota intestinal, con incrementos en la cuenta de bifidobacterias tras 2 meses de suplementación del mismo producto en 18 pacientes en terapia hemodiálisis 48 .…”
