Abstract
Patients with comorbidities are at high risk of developing malnutrition. Comorbidities and malnutrition, alone or together, constitute independent predictors of survival in these patients. Patients with both malnutrition and comorbidities demonstrate the worst survival. Malnutrition and comorbidities seem to exert a confounding effect on the survival of CAPD patients.
