NCT ID NCT06580093
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study observes 69 adults with chronic kidney disease who are on hemodialysis. Researchers want to find the best way to diagnose malnutrition using the GLIM criteria and other tools. The goal is to see which methods best predict declines in quality of life, muscle strength, and survival. No new treatments are given—only routine data is collected.
