Protein-Energy Wasting in Chronic Kidney Disease

A Practical Reference Book for Improving the Diagnosis and Treatment of Protein-Energy Wasting in Chronic Kidney Disease

提高慢性肾脏病蛋白质能量诊治水平实用参考书

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and serious global health problem. Among its complications, CKD-related protein-energy wasting (CKD-PEW) has not received sufficient attention or in-depth study. This book systematically elucidates the causes, pathophysiological mechanisms, cutting-edge research advances, and knowledge related to clinical assessment and management of CKD-PEW. It proposes and emphasizes new concepts, techniques, and methods in renal rehabilitation, and discusses the relationship between improving protein-energy wasting and renal rehabilitation.

This book is beneficial for clinicians and researchers engaged in both clinical and basic science work related to CKD. It provides guiding recommendations for clinicians managing patients with CKD-PEW, and will help further improve the level of CKD-PEW management in China, ultimately enhancing the quality of life and prognosis of CKD patients.

慢性肾脏病（CKD）是一种常见且严重的全球性健康问题，其中CKD相关的蛋白质能量消耗（CKD PEW）问题一直没有得到足够的关注和深入研究。本书系统地阐述了CKD PEW的原因、病理生理机制、前沿研究进展，以及临床评估和管理等相关知识，提出并强调肾脏康复新的理念、技术和方法，论述改善蛋白质能量消耗与肾脏康复的关系。本书对从事CKD相关临床和基础研究工作者都有所裨益，为临床医师对CKD PEW患者管理提供了指导性建议，有助于进一步提高我国CKD PEW管理水平，改善CKD患者生活质量和预后。
