Quality matters: chronic kidney disease progression is associated with reduced muscle strength independently of changes in skeletal muscle mass: an observational study
CKD negatively, progressively and independently affects the neuromuscular system, and force production is reduced for any given muscle mass as CKD progresses. While no association was found between CKD stage and prevalence of sarcopaenia, recovery was more frequent in the early CKD stages. These results suggest the importance of early rehabilitation programs to improve musculoskeletal health, quality of life and survival in CKD patients.
