About

Chronic hemodialysis (CHD) patients are vulnerable to develop protein energy malnutrition and make a notion that to maintain the nutritional status is of paramount importance in these patients. However, proteins intake from vegetarian and meat diet were observed to have different impacts on nutritional and inflammatory status, mineral homeostasis and its related hormones, and clinical outcomes in non-dialysis CKD patients. In here, we aim to investigate these impacts in CHD patients.
