In hemodialysis patients malnutrition-inflammation syndrome, evaluated by biochemical laboratory analysis and through bioimpedance spectroscopy, was associated to impaired quality of life and with an increased risk of mortality. The present study goal was to investigate, in a cross-sectional analysis, performed in 122 hemodialysis patients, the association between biochemical parameters and bioimpedance-derived measurements the association of undernutrition with quality of life and illness perception. The results showed that our cohort perceived an impaired quality of life and illness perception and that these psychometric evaluation was associated with malnutrition markers.
