This study aimed to identify the impact of nutrition education on various health-related components of hemodialysis patients. A systematic review was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines. Relevant literature published between 2013 and 2023 was identified across two databases (PubMed and Science Direct). The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023460681). Two independent reviewers retrieved the data, and 41 studies were selected. Nine components related to the impact of nutrition education in hemodialysis patients were identified. Each component was clarified by mentioning each study and its results. This study enabled us to characterize the various components of the impact of nutritional education in hemodialysis patients, namely biological markers, quality of life, cost of care, adherence to dietary recommendations, knowledge, malnutrition inflammation, dietary intake, weight change, and behavior change. This systematic review enables healthcare providers to assess the impact of nutritional education on hemodialysis patients. Also, it gives professionals an exact idea of the impact of nutrition education on hemodialysis patients, with knowledge of new methods using behavior change theories and innovative technological tools.

Introduction Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of cervical cancer patients treated by Concurrent Chemoradiation (CCRT) in Morocco is influenced by multiple concomitant factors that affect patients’ post-treatment physical and psychosocial well-being. Therefore, the assessment of post-treatment health related quality of life may help identify groups of patients and risk factors for future interventions for improving post-treatment quality of life. Method This study aimed at assessing HRQoL and its association to psychological distress of 103 cervical cancer patients treated with CCRT in Morocco. The assessment was performed using the EORTC-QLQ-C30 and the HADS questionnaires. Results Cervical cancer patients had diminished HRQoL for functional dimensions ("emotional functioning", “physical functioning” and “role functioning” with averages of 51.78, 54.17, and 58.74, respectively) and high level for symptomatic dimensions with mean scores of 58.90 for “Appetite loss’, 38.83 for “financial difficulties”, 45.31 for “insomnia”, 45.42 for “fatigue”, and 46.28 for “pain”. The assessment of anxiety and depression symptoms showed that the majority of patients had high level of anxiety (62.1%), and depression (61.2%). Emotional functioning, fatigue and insomnia were the main predictors of anxiety disorder in women with cervical cancer. Lower emotional functioning and greater fatigue and insomnia contributed significantly to higher anxiety level. Conclusions HRQoL and psychological status of Moroccan cervical cancer patients undergoing CCRT were negatively affected. These findings suggest that future patient care policies should include strategies for improving HRQoL, mainly through psychological support and patient education as well as prevention or reduction treatment complications.
