Prevalence of chronic renal failure with diabetic patients was increasing in Korea. The purpose of this study is to investigate the nutritional status of Korean hemodialysis patients with and without DM. Anthropometry, hematological variables and food intake were analyzed. Food intake was taken using 24hr recall for consecutive 2days including one dialysis and one non dialysis day. An average intake of 2days was considered as daily food intake. Urea reduction rate was significantly lower in DM than nonDM group, DM group showed lower adequacy of dialysis. BMI, triceps skin fold thickness were in normal range for both groups. However, BMI was significantly higher in DM than nonDM group. Serum protein, hemoglobin and hematocrit were below normal range for both groups. These values implied mild protein inadequacy and possible anemia in patients. Energy/IBW(kcal/kg IBW/d) intake was inadequate in DM and significantly lower compared to nonDM group. Intake of calcium, vitaminB 2 were below Estimated Average Requirements in both groups. DM group was not differ from nonDM group in anthropometry, hematological variables and food intake. BMI was higher, even though their energy intake and URR was lower. In conclusion, our subjects regardless the presence of DM, nutrition intake status was not satisfactory, and more active nutrition monitoring is needed.
