Study on the correlation between bioelectrical impedance analysis index and protein energy consumption in maintenance dialysis patients

Abstract Background Protein-energy wasting (PEW) has been reported to be pretty common in maintenance dialysis patients. However, the existing PEW diagnostic standard is limited in clinical use due to the complexity of it. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), as a non-invasive nutritional assessm...
