Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of a specialized oral nutritional supplement (SF) enriched with BCAAs, omega-3 fatty acids, and dietary fiber on improving the nutritional status of dialysis patients with mild to moderate malnutrition, and thereby alleviating fatigue and enhancing quality of life. We will assess various aspects of protein-energy wasting (PEW), as well as changes in the Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), fatigue, appetite, serum BCAA levels, uremic toxins, and gut microbiota composition.
