1. Article of the month – March 2015

This month we are covering the article titled ‘A multi-technique analysis of the nutritional status and quality of life of patients on maintenance Hemodialysis (MHD)’. This abstract won the top prize during the AICNU 2014 in Bangalore. It covers various topics related to the malnutrition in chronic hemodialysis patients and their quality of life. The premise of the abstract is that with poor quality of life, the degree of malnutrition increases the morbidity and mortality. This study aims to assess and correlate the nutritional status of patients undergoing MHD with QOL.
