title: [Laboratory markers of nutritional state in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis].
abstract: Selected laboratory markers of nutritional state in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) are presented in this review. Parameters, which depend on intake of nutritional products and are related to consequences of nutrition, especially to development of abdominal obesity, are shown. Attention is paid on factors, which modify laboratory parameters of nutritional state, independently on quantity and quality of ingested products. These parameters include volume of extracellular water, inflammatory state, metrical age, duration of treatment with PD, metabolic acidosis, treatment with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. Among laboratory parameters, which are related to excess of visceral fat tissue, the most important results of investigations on serum adipocytokine concentration and insulin resistance are presented, underlying their associations with anthropometric parameters of nutritional state of PD patients.
