- Abstract
Handgrip strength (HGS) is suggested as an indirect assessment of nutritional status in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, but evidence is limited for non-dialysis-dependent CKD (NDD-CKD) patients. This cross-sectional study included 404 patients from the Phase II KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With CKD. HGS, measured twice in each hand, was the exposure, and malnutrition status was defined by a malnutrition–inflammation score (MIS) of 6 or higher. A logistic regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, CKD stages, smoking, overhydration, education, and income status was used to assess malnutrition risk. The predictability of HGS for malnutrition was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC). Patients with lower HGS were older, had a higher prevalence of DM, and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate. Higher HGS was significantly associated with lower malnutrition risk after adjustment (per 1 standard deviation increase, adjusted odds ratio, 0.47 [0.30–0.75]). Subgroup analyses showed no significant interaction between HGS and malnutrition risk across age, sex, DM, and CKD stage. HGS showed fair predictability for malnutrition in men (AUC 0.64 [0.46–0.83]) and women (AUC 0.71 [0.55–0.86]). In conclusion, HGS is a useful diagnostic indicator of malnutrition in NDD-CKD patients.
