Change in adiposity indices after 1 year of peritoneal dialysis: a single-center cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Weight gain is common after starting peritoneal dialysis (PD). Several adiposity indices have been developed recently as potential indicators of visceral adiposity and lipid accumulation. We aim to investigate the prevalence and prognostic implications of the change in adiposity indices after 1 year of PD.

Methods

We recruited 110 patients treated with PD for 12 months. Adiposity indices, including triglyceride glucose index, lipid accumulation product, visceral adiposity index and conicity index, were measured at baseline and then 1 year after PD started. The relation between their changes (Δ) and other clinical and biochemical parameters, as well as survival and hospitalization rates were analyzed.

Results

After 1 year of PD, more than half of the patient
