One of the most disabling, yet neglected, symptom of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is alteration in taste. The purpose of this review is to examine the extent and content of research around this symptom in CKD with the goals of (1) identifying gaps in current research knowledge and (2) guiding future research. The review summarizes the basic anatomy and physiology of taste followed by analysis of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management strategies for taste changes in patients with CKD.
