“…However, specific concerns regarding the mathematical coupling between nPCR and Kt/V have been highlighted [31]. In our study, as we were unable to calculate the protein intake precisely, consistent with the way previous researchers have employed [32,33], we used Kt/V and nPCR to predict the relative protein intake of our patients, although an artificial mathematical correlation due to coupling was expected. In the beginning of our study, no difference was found between groups for nPCR and Kt/V , which ensured a roughly homogeneous study sample in terms of nutritional status.…”

“…Other researchers who investigated the effects of protein supplementation on hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients also found an increase in serum albumin levels. The authors still found that after discontinuation of supplement use blood protein values declined [14]. The present study made it possible to observe that some patients did not adhere to the use of protein supplements, arguing that they were afraid to use them because they were diabetic or because their taste was protein intake did not present a statistically significant association, as there was no association between energy-protein intake and patient age.…”

“…In addition, the dialysis population often presents an insufficient or inadequate food intake, due to socioeconomic reasons or because of low adherence to the recommendations, causing deterioration in the nutritional status and the need for follow-up by a nutritionist [13]. Thus, it becomes evident the importance of guiding an adequate energy-protein intake, which is often only achieved through supplementation, since adequate nutrition improves the quality of life and also decreases the metabolic changes mentioned above [14].…”

“…31 evaluaron el impacto de la suplencia oral con proteínas en pacientes sometidos a diálisis. El grupo no tratado presentó mayor tasa de catabolismo proteico, mientras que el grupo tratado mostró mejoría en los niveles de albúmina en los primeros tres meses; sin embargo, se encontró un declive de los mismos posterior a seis meses.…”
