Relationship between immune nutrition index and all-cause and cause-specific mortality in U.S. adults with chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The available evidence regarding the association of immune nutrition status with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is limited. Thus, the present study examined whether immunonutrition indices were associated with renal function and mortality among CKD individuals.

Research design and methods

This study enrolled 6,099 U.S. adults with CKD from the NHANES 2005-2018 database. Participants were matched with National Death Index records until 31 December 2019 to determine mortality outcomes. The time-dependent receiver operating characteristic was utilized to identify the most effective index among the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), system inflammation score (SIS), Naples prognostic score (NPS), and controlling nutritional status (CONUT) for predicting mortality.
