Body Mass Index Modified Predictive Ability Of Biomarkers For Protein-Energy Wasting In Prevalent Hemodialysis Patients

Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is crucial complication in prevalent hemodialysis (HD) patients. Abnormality of biomarkers such as IL-6, NT-pro-BNP, and adiponectin (ADPN) contribute to PEW. However, associations of the biomarkers with PEW according to BMI levels have not been fully evaluated. Thus tho...
