Abstract
Nutritional status affects clinical outcomes in patients with chronic renal failure. Glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, obesity, hypertension, and a calcium-phosphorus-vitamin D imbalance are the major nutritional and metabolic problems that occur in posttransplant patients. In this study, we assessed the daily intake in long-term renal transplant recipients to determine whether they have sufficient nutrients based on the Japanese nutrition recommendations (recommended dietary allowances [RDA] in Japan 2010). Thirty-one renal allograft recipients followed for >10 years (median, 16.3) were recruited. The median serum creatinine level was 1.2 g/dL (95% CI, 0.6-3.4). We estimated the intake of nutrients, including protein and salt, using a simple food frequency questionnaire. The median body mass index was 20.1 kg/m(2). The median total energy intake was 1566 kcal/d (95% CI, 892-2556). The daily intake of protein and salt was 65.1 and 9.1 g/d, respectively. The calcium, iron, vitamin D, and vitamin K intakes were 423 mg, 7.0 mg/d, 9.7 μg/d, and 197 μg/d, respectively. Patients with dyslipidemia displayed greater amounts of lipid and calcium than those with normal lipid levels. Our findings suggest that long-term renal transplant r...Continue Reading
