The Claim
In hemodialysis patients, daily supplementation with 5 grams of creatine monohydrate over a period of one year does not improve the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS), suggesting that creatine supplementation alone does not mitigate systemic inflammation or overall malnutrition in this population.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Taking creatine every day for a year doesn’t help improve nutrition or reduce inflammation in people on dialysis, according to this claim.
See the scientific wording
In hemodialysis patients, 5 grams of creatine monohydrate per day for one year does not improve the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS), a composite measure of nutritional and inflammatory status, indicating that creatine supplementation alone does not address systemic inflammation or overall malnutrition in this population.
What the research says
1 studyThe study gave creatine to dialysis patients for a year and found it didn’t improve their malnutrition-inflammation score, just like the claim says.
