We aimed to evaluate the volume and nutritional status of ESRD patients and to determine the clinical significance of phase angle (PhA). Methods: This study was a cross-sectional comparison of bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) findings in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 (CKD5-ND, N = 80) and age\/sex-matched peritoneal dialysis patients (PD, N = 80). PEW was defined as a PhA less than 4.5\u00b0. Results: The PhA was found to be positively associated with a geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI, r = 0.561, p &lt; 0.001), lean tissue index (LTI, r = 0.473, p &lt; 0.001), and albumin (r = 0.565, p &lt; 0.001) while OH\/ECW (r = \u22120.824, p &lt; 0.001) showed an inverse correlation. The CKD5-ND group had more overhydration (p = 0.027). The PD group had significantly higher PhA (p = 0.023), GNRI (p = 0.005), hemoglobin (p &lt; 0.001), and albumin (p = 0.003) than the CKD5-ND group. The cut-off values predicting PEW were found to be 3.55 g\/dL for albumin, 94.9 for GNRI, and 12.95 kg\/m2 for LTI in PD patients. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that PhA could be used as a marker to reflect nutritional status in patients with ESRD. Since BIS can inform both volume and nutritional status, regular monitoring will provide the basis for active correction of fluid overload and nutritional supplementation, which may improve outcomes in patients with ESRD.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu10091331","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,19]],"date-time":"2018-09-19T10:50:31Z","timestamp":1537354231000},"page":"1331","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":42,"title":["Clinical Significance of Phase Angle in Non-Dialysis CKD Stage 5 and Peritoneal Dialysis Patients"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Byoung-Geun","family":"Han","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Wonju, Kang-won 26426, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8047-4190","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jun Young","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Wonju, Kang-won 26426, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1350-3526","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jae-Seok","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Wonju, Kang-won 26426, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3689-5865","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jae-Won","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Yonsei University Wonju College of Medicine, Wonju, Kang-won 26426, Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1867","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1523-1755.2001.00001.x","article-title":"Association between renal insufficiency and malnutrition in older adults: Results from the NHANES III","volume":"60","author":"Garg","year":"2001","journal-title":"Kidney Int."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Kim, E.J., Choi, M.J., Lee, J.H., Oh, J.E., Seo, J.W., Lee, Y.K., Yoon, J.W., Kim, H.J., Noh, J.W., and Koo, J.R.
