The beneficial effects of intradialytic parenteral nutrition in hemodialysis patients with protein energy wasting: a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Although the proportion of patients having MIS ≥ 5 points as categorical value in the IDPN group did not reach statistical significance compared with the control group (76.5 vs 83.3%, respectively, p = 0.61), the composite score assessed by MIS as continuous variables significantly reduced from 8.7 ± 3.8 to 6.8 ± 3.2 points after 3 months of IDPN ( p = 0.005).
