Nutritional Considerations in the Treatment of Patients with Chronic Uremia
Abstract
Low-protein diets ameliorate uremic symptoms and some of its metabolic complications. These diets can be used successfully to treat patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) because they are able to activate normal compensatory responses when protein intake is restricted and their protein and energy requirements are similar to healthy subjects. However, there has been concern that dietary therapy compromises the nutritional status of CRF patients and that initiating dialysis would be preferable to this type of therapy. Kopple and co-workers hade identified the requirements of CRF patients for protein and calories and available evidence indicates that when properly implemented, low-protein diets are safe and can maintain lean body mass even during long-term therapy. Based on the information published by Kopple and co-workers, the strategies for treating CRF patients should include careful analysis of the diet and the nutritional status of the patient.

High-protein diets are poorly tolerated by people with chronic renal disease and markedly reduced glomerular filtration rate; excess protein raises phosphorus load, which can cause acidosis and worsen insulin resistance.
“Highprotein diets of any sort are not well tolerated by individuals with chronic renal disease who have markedly reduced glomerular filtration rate; excess protein enhances phosphorus load, which can cause acidosis and worsen insulin resistance.155,156”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
