Inferring personal intake recommendations of phosphorous and potassium for end-stage renal failure patients by simulating with Bayesian hierarchical multivariate model.
Most end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients face a risk of malnutrition, partly due to dietary restrictions on phosphorous and, in some cases, potassium intake.

| description | Most end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients face a risk of malnutrition, partly due to dietary restrictions on phosphorous and, in some cases, potassium intake. These restrictions aim to regulate plasma phosphate and potassium concentrations and prevent the adverse effects of hyperphosphatemia or hyperkalemia. However, individual responses to nutrition are known to vary, highlighting the need for personalized recommendations rather than relying solely on general guidelines. In this study, our objective was to develop a Bayesian hierarchical multivariate model that estimates the individual effects of nutrients on plasma concentrations and to present a recommendation algorithm that utilizes this model to infer personalized dietary intakes capable of achieving normal ranges for all considered concentrations. Considering the limited research on the reactions of ESRD patients, we collected dietary intake data and corresponding laboratory analyses from a cohort of 37 patients. The collected data were used to estimate the common hierarchical model, from which personalized models of the patients' diets and individual reactions were extracted. The application of our recommendation algorithm revealed substantial variations in phosphorus and potassium intakes recommended for each patient. These personalized recommendations deviate from the general guidelines, suggesting that a notably richer diet may be proposed for certain patients to mitigate the risk of malnutrition. Furthermore, all the participants underwent either hospital, home, or peritoneal dialysis treatments. We explored the impact of treatment type on nutritional reactions by incorporating it as a nested level in the hierarchical model. Remarkably, this incorporation improved the fit of the nutritional effect model by a notable reduction in the normalized root mean square error (NRMSE) from 0.078 to 0.003. These findings highlight the potential for personalized dietary modifications to optimize nutritional status, enhance patient outcomes, and mitigate the risk of malnutrition in the ESRD population. |
