Abstract
There was no evidence of better nutrition in new HD patients with higher IDWG%. Although increased intake is promoted as critical for improving nutritional status in HD patients, it may be inappropriate to focus solely on the benefits of higher IDWG%, which can also lead to the development of hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and intradialytic hypotension.
