Background/objectives: in chronic kidney disease (CKD), poor nutrition is associated with poorer clinical outcomes. There are limited data on milder stages of childhood CKD. Methods: This study characterised the nutritional state of a cohort of children with CKD. Results: within the cohort (mean age 10.5 years, mean eGFR = 57 mL/min/1.73 m2), obesity defined by body mass index rates was comparable to that in the general population, but central obesity (waist-to-height ratio > 0.5) was evident in 44% of children. Although average nutrient intakes for the cohort were acceptable, there was marked variability in the risk of poor nutrient intake ( |
