Summary: | The present systematic review and meta-analysis aims to determine the difference in the interdialytic weight gain (IDWG) between low salt intake diet and normal/high salt intake diet or between nutritional counseling aimed at reducing diet salt intake and no nutritional counseling in patients on chronic hemodialysis.
Medline, PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched. Randomized, crossover or parallel studies and observational studies were considered for inclusion and: 1) included adult patients on chronic hemodialysis since at least 6 months; 2) compared normal salt intake diet with low salt intake diet on IDWG; 3) compared nutritional counseling aimed at reducing diet salt intake with no intervention on IDWG; 4) reported on IDWG.
Eight articles (783 patients) were fully assessed for eligibility and included in the investigation. Meta-analysis showed frequencies of patients that increased their weight after dialysis more than 2.5 Kg (events) over total enrolled subjects for each group (control and experimental). As no significant heterogeneity was observed (I2 = 8%; p = 0.36), the pooled analysis was performed using a fixed-effect model. Funnel plot was generated and no obvious asymmetry was observed. The Overall Odds Ratio to get an event in the experimental group, in respect to controls, is 0.57 (0.33–0.97) (p = 0.04] with single studies OR ranging between 0.11 and 1.08.
The present systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that the use of a low salt diet sodium or a nutritional counseling aimed at reducing diet salt intake is associated with a statistically significant reduction of the IDWG in patients on chronic hemodialysis. |
