Whereas the prevalence of PEW is higher in HD than in PD patients, PD patients carry a higher baseline risk of infections. It is however unknown whether nutritional status may influence this infection risk in strata of dialysis modality. The objective of the present study was to investigate the association between PEW and the risk of all-cause, dialysis technique and non-dialysis technique related infections in both HD and PD patients. We found that protein-energy wasting is a risk factor for infectious complications in both HD and PD patients. Furthermore, improvement of the SGA classification, irrespective of the subscale scores, may result in a decreased risk of infections. Routine screening of nutritional status is important in all dialysis patients
