In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of medical nutrition therapy to be applied to patients with sarcopenic obesity receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment by measuring anthropometric measurements and blood parameters.
Efficacy of medical nutrition therapy in patients with sarcopenic obesity receiving peritoneal dialysis treatment, general information form after patients filled in the voluntary consent form, SARC-F questionnaire as sarcopenia screening test, International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), muscle mass, muscle strength, physical performance, BIA measurement, anthropometric measurements, laboratory findings and three-day food consumption records will be evaluated.

Change in muscle strength
Handgrip strength (kg) will be measured by using the CAMRY EH101 dynamometer. Hand grip strength \<16 kg for women and \<27 kg for men indicates low muscle strength.
Time frame: Baseline to 3 months after diet programme
Change in the skeletal muscle mass
Skeletal muscle mass (kg) will be measured by using bioelectrical impedance analysis.
Time frame: Baseline to 3 months after diet programme
Change in the physical performance
4-meter walking speed test will be performed. A walking speed of ≤0.8 m/sec is considered as an indicator of severe sarcopenia.
Time frame: Baseline to 3 months after diet programme
Change of the fat mass
Fat mass (kg) will be measured by using bioelectrical impedance analysis.
Time frame: Baseline to 3 months after diet programme
Changes of percentage of body fat
Percentage of body fat will be measured by using bioelectrical impedance analysis.
Time frame: Baseline to 3 months after diet programme
Changes of body mass index
The weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m2.
Time frame: Baseline to 3 months after diet programme
