Risk of overhydration and low lean tissue index as measured using a body composition monitor in patients on hemodialysis: a systemic review and meta-analysis
2018
AbstractOverhydration and
sarcopenia, related to an individual’s nutritional status, have been associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and poor prognosis in patients on hemodialysis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prediction of overhydration and
sarcopeniaon mortality in patients on hemodialysis using a body
composition monitor. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis using a
random-effects model. We searched the Cochrane Central Register, OVID MEDLINE, EMBASE and PubMed databases for all studies published prior to December 9, 2016 and reviewed the reference lists of relevant reviews, registered trials and relevant conference proceedings. The overhydration group (fluid excess, >15% vs. the normohydration group) and the low lean tissue index group ( <10%) were compared with a
reference group. Six trials, consisting of 29,469 patients, were included in the pooled analysis. The pooled hazard ratio for overall survival of the overhydration group, compared with the refe...
