Abstract: Objective:To investigate the incidence and related factors with sarcopenia in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods:A total of 131 patients with non-hospitalized maintenance hemodialysis who had been maintained for at least 3 months and in a stable condition were enrolled in a cross-sectional study.Bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) method was employed to examine the muscle mass.MQSGA questionnaire was used to evaluate patients'nutrition status as well as related laboratory indicators.Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of sarcopenia in MHD patients.Results:The incidence of sarcopenia in 131 MHD patients was 41.22％ (54/131).Significant differences were observed in gender,duration of hemodialysis,hs-CRP and the score of M(Q)SGA between the two groups.The incidence of sarcopenia in male was 43.67 times compared with female.And with the increase of hs-CRP levels and MQSGA score,the incidence of sarcopenia was increased as well (P ＜0.05).Conclusion:Sarcopenia has a high incidence in MHD patients,and male,micro-inflammatory state and malnutrition were the risk factors.
