TL;DRAbstract

Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious complication in patients with chronic uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Objective This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional status of T2DM patients undergoing hemodialysis. Materials and Methods A cross‐sectional study conducted in the main Renal Dialysis Center, Muscat, Oman. The subjects were 96 Omani adults undergoing hemodialysis (48 with T2DM and 48 with no T2DM diagnosis). Results The study subjects (62% male and 38% female) had a comparable mean age of 51± 8 years. As judged by body mass index, 86% of patients were underweight and 14% were average weight. Base line laboratory tests were comparable for all patients with the exception of fasting glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) that were higher among T2DM patients. Nutritional status was assessed using the subjective global assessment score (SGA) that revealed that in T2DM patients 22% were severely malnourished, 25% were mild to moderately malnourished
