Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia has been identified as a risk factor for increased mortality in individuals with CKD. However, when considering individuals with mild kidney dysfunction prior to CKD, the impact of sarcopenia on adverse outcomes, particularly mortality, remains uncertain. METHODS This study included 323 801 participants from the UK Biobank. Mild kidney dysfunction was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate between 60 and 89.9 mL/min/1.73 m2, and sarcopenia was defined according to the criteria of the 2019 European Working Group of Sarcopenia in Older People. Cox proportional hazard models with inverse probability weighting and competing risk models were used for analysis. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 11.8 years, 20 146 participants died from all causes. Compared with participants with normal kidney function and without sarcopenia, those with mild kidney dysfunction or sarcopenia had significantly increased risks of all-cause mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 1.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.12-1.19; HR 1.29, 95% CI 1.20-1.37]; those with both mild kidney dysfunction and sarcopenia had an even higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR 1.61, 95% CI 1.52-1.71), with a significant overall additive interaction (relative risk due to interaction 0.17, 95% CI 0.05-0.29). Further subgroup analyses revealed that the associations of probable sarcopenia with all-cause and cause-specific mortality (non-accidental cause, non-communicable diseases and cancer) were stronger among participants with mild kidney dysfunction than those with normal kidney function. CONCLUSIONS The study indicates that sarcopenia and mild kidney dysfunction synergistically increase the risk of all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Early recognition and improvement of mild kidney function or sarcopenia in older people may reduce mortality risk but would require more prospective confirmation.

The Association of Short Physical Performance Battery With Mortality and Hospitalization in Patients Receiving Hemodialysis. J Ren Nutr 2024; 34:235-242. [PMID: 37923149 DOI: 10.1053/j.jrn.2023.10.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) is recommended for evaluating physical performance in patients on hemodialysis (HD). However, the association between SPPB score and long-term health outcomes in these patients remains unclear. We examined the association of SPPB score with all-cause mortality, all-cause hospitalization, and cardiovascular hospitalization in patients on HD. DESIGN AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 326 patients (median age, 68 years; 62% men) who received outpatient HD therapy. These patients were divided into 2 SPPB groups: low (SPPB ≤9) and high (SPPB >9). We investigated the association of SPPB score and their change over time with health outcomes using Cox regression analysis. RESULTS Low SPPB score was associated with a higher risk for all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.19, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.89-5.38), all-cause hospitalization (HR: 2.01, 95% CI: 1.44-2.82), and cardiovascular hospitalization (HR: 2.20, 95% CI: 1.45-3.35). Additionally, change in SPPB score over 1 year was associated with health outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Lower SPPB score was significantly associated with a higher risk for all-cause mortality, all-cause hospitalization, and cardiovascular hospitalization. The SPPB may be a valuable indicator for risk stratification in patients on HD. Additionally, preventive treatments may be an effective management strategy in limiting the high mortality and hospitalization rates in patients with decreased SPPB score.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Multiple interventions have demonstrated an increase in mouse lifespan. However, non-standardized controls, sex or strain-specific factors, and insufficient focus on targets, hinder the translation of these findings into clinical applications. AREAS COVERED We examined the effects of genetic and drug-based interventions on mice from databases DrugAge, GenAge, the Mouse Phenome Database, and publications from PubMed that led to a lifespan extension of more than 10%, identifying specific molecular targets that were manipulated to achieve the maximum lifespan in mice. Subsequently, we characterized 10 molecular targets influenced by these interventions, with particular attention given to clinical trials and potential indications for each. EXPERT OPINION To increase the translational potential of mice life-extension studies to clinical research several factors are crucial: standardization of mice lifespan research approaches, the development of clear criteria for control and experimental groups, the establishment of criteria for potential geroprotectors, and focusing on targets and their clinical application. Pinpointing the targets affected by geroprotectors helps in understanding species-specific differences and identifying potential side effects, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of clinical trials. Additionally, target review facilitates the optimization of treatment protocols and the evaluation of the clinical feasibility of translating research findings into practical therapies for humans.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), including peritoneal dialysis (PD), have sarcopenia. It is important to evaluate muscle mass to prevent sarcopenia in the field of CKD management. Recently, muscle mass assessment using psoas muscle evaluated by computed tomography (CT) has been reported in patients undergoing hemodialysis. However, few clinical studies have investigated the clinical factors associated with the evaluation of psoas muscle in patients undergoing PD. METHODS Psoas muscle mass index (PMI) was measured in cross-sectional areas of the bilateral psoas muscles at the third lumbar spine level to evaluate psoas muscle status. The associations between PMI and possible clinical factors were investigated in 68 patients undergoing PD. RESULTS The mean PMI was 6.3 ± 2.0 cm2/m2, and the PMI was higher in men than in women (p < 0.001). In a multivariable linear regression analysis of the factors associated with PMI, male gender (standardized coefficient: 0.331), body mass index (standardized coefficient: 0.283), serum creatinine concentration (standardized coefficient: 0.289), serum albumin concentration (standardized coefficient: 0.235), and the use of vitamin D (standardized coefficient: 0.195) were independently identified. CONCLUSION PMI was independently and significantly associated with gender, BMI, serum creatinine concentration, serum albumin concentration and the use of vitamin D. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify whether the maintenance of nutritional status or vitamin D administration could affect muscle mass in patients undergoing PD.

Abstract
Sarcopenia lowers the quality-of-life for millions of people across the world, as accelerated loss of skeletal muscle mass and function contributes to both age- and disease-related frailty. Physical activity remains the only proven therapy for sarcopenia to date, but alternatives are much sought after to manage this progressive muscle disorder in individuals who are unable to exercise. Mitochondria have been widely implicated in the etiology of sarcopenia and are increasingly suggested as attractive therapeutic targets to help restore the perturbed balance between protein synthesis and breakdown that underpins skeletal muscle atrophy. Reviewing current literature, we note that mitochondrial bioenergetic changes in sarcopenia are generally interpreted as intrinsic dysfunction that renders muscle cells incapable of making sufficient ATP to fuel protein synthesis. Based on the reported mitochondrial effects of therapeutic interventions, however, we argue that the observed bioenergetic changes may instead reflect an adaptation to pathologically decreased energy expenditure in sarcopenic muscle. Discrimination between these mechanistic possibilities will be crucial for improving the management of sarcopenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies have shown an association between reduced renal function and the risk of sarcopenia. However, the causal relationship and the underlying biological mechanisms remain uncertain. Using a Mendelian randomization (MR) framework, we investigated the causal role of 27 hypothetical risk mediators, including metabolites, hormones, inflammation, and stress traits, on the risk of sarcopenia. METHODS Instrumental variables (IVs) to proxy renal function were identified by selecting single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reliably associated with creatinine and cystatin C-based glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in CKDGen summary data. IVs for putative risk traits and sarcopenia traits were constructed from relevant genome-wide association studies (GWAS). MR estimated effects were obtained using an inverse-variance weighted effects model, and various sensitivity analyses were performed. The mediating role of hypothetical risk factors in the relationship between GFR and sarcopenia was assessed through multivariate MR. RESULTS Genetically predicted reduced GFRcrea was associated with higher odds of appendicular lean mass (ALM) (odds ratio (OR): 0.64, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.37 to 0.68) and grip strength (OR: 0.67; 95% CI 0.58 to 0.78). Likewise, GFRcys highlighted a causal relationship with ALM (OR: 0.52; 95% CI 0.42 to 0.65) and grip strength (OR: 0.66; 95% CI 0.59 to 0.74). Both estimated GFR (eGFR) were negatively associated with IGF-1, IL-16, 25(OH)D, triglycerides (range of effect size per standard deviation: -0.81 to -0.30), and positively correlated with HDL cholesterol (0.62, 0.31). There was a positive correlation between IGF-1, fasting insulin and ALM as well as grip strength (OR range: 1.04-1.67) and a negative correlation between serum CRP and ALM (OR: 0.95) as well as grip strength (OR: 0.98). Additionally, genetically predicted IL-1β (OR: 0.95) and total cholesterol (OR: 0.96) were negatively associated with ALM. We found evidence that IGF-1 mediates the relationship between eGFR and risk for muscle mass and strength. CONCLUSIONS This MR study provides insight into the potential causal mechanisms between renal function and the risk of sarcopenia and proposes IGF-1 as a potential target for the prevention of renal sarcopenia.

Abstract
Background The COVID-19 pandemic has caused over 656 million confirmed cases and over 6.6 million deaths worldwide. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is considered a high-risk factor for COVID-19; therefore, considerable research has been conducted in this field. Therefore, this study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of publications related to COVID-19 and CKD. Methods Publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database on 16 January 2023 and screened based on inclusion criteria. Then the authors used Microsoft Excel and CiteSpace to analyze the included publications from the following seven aspects: countries/regions, institutions, journals, authors, cited references, and keywords. Results In total, 622 publications were included in the study. The USA has the most publications in this field, followed by China. The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Harvard Medical School had the highest number of publications in the field. Journal of Clinical Medicine had the largest number of publications, and Lancet was the most cited journal. Alberto Ortiz was the author with the largest number of publications, but there were no influential authors in this field. The highly cited references are mainly clinical studies on COVID-19. Research hotspots in this field include end-stage recent disease, cardiovascular disease, kidney metastasis, diabetes Mellitus, acute kidney injury, meta-analysis, and consistent plasma. Conclusions The USA, China, and some European countries and their institutions are major contributors to these publications. End-stage renal disease, acute kidney injury, kidney transplantation and convalescent plasma are current hot topics in the field.

Abstract
Background Recent studies have presented the concept of the obesity paradox, suggesting that individuals with obesity have a lower risk of death than those without obesity. This paradox may arise because body mass index (BMI) alone is insufficient to understand body composition accurately. This study investigated the relationship between fat and muscle mass and the risk of mortality in individuals with overweight/obesity. Methods We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2006 and 2011 to 2018, which were linked to mortality information obtained from the National Death Index. Multiple Cox regression analyses were performed to estimate mortality risk. Subgroup analysis was conducted using propensity score-matched (PSM) data for age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Results This study included 16,555 participants who were overweight/obese (BMI≥25 kg/m2). An increase in appendicular skeletal muscle mass index was associated with a lower mortality risk (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.856; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.802-0.915). This finding was consistent with the subgroup analysis of the PSM data. Contrastingly, a high fat mass index was associated with an increased risk of mortality. Sarcopenic overweight/obesity was significantly associated with high mortality compared to obesity without sarcopenia (HR: 1.612, 95%CI: 1.328-1.957). This elevated risk was significant in both age- and sex-based subgroups. This finding was consistent with the subgroup analysis using PSM data. Conclusion In contrast to the obesity paradox, a simple increase in BMI does not protect against mortality. Instead, low body fat and high muscle mass reduce mortality risk.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common cancer and the third leading cause of cancer death worldwide, which seriously endangers human health. A number of studies have shown that sarcopenia occurs more frequently in patients with gastric cancer than in the general population and can significantly affect the disease status and survival of patients, which is of great significance in predicting the prognosis of gastric cancer. Patients with gastric cancer may suffer sarcopenia no matter before or after surgery, and the pathogenesis is complex. Abnormal nutrient metabolism and reduced exercise are the leading causes. In addition, surgical treatment and chemotherapy for gastric cancer might participate in the physiological and pathological mechanism of sarcopenia. Generally speaking, exercise and nutritional therapy are the main prevention and treatment methods for sarcopenia. But more prospective evidence is needed to establish reasonable interventions, and other drug treatments are in their infancy. For the diagnostic criteria of sarcopenia, the cut-off values of the skeletal muscle mass index obtained from CT images vary widely and need to be standardized and unified. We also need to explore simple predictors to facilitate sarcopenia risk assessment. More research is needed to formulate more appropriate treatments for gastric cancer patients with sarcopenia.

Abstract
Chronic anemia is an independent risk factor for mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Restoring physiological hemoglobin (Hb) levels is essential to increase oxygen transport capacity to tissues and improve cell metabolism as well as physical and cardiac performance. Nutritional deficits and iron deficiency are the major causes of chronic anemia, but other etiologies include chronic kidney disease, inflammatory processes, and unexplained anemia. Hormonal therapy, including erythropoietin (EPO) and anabolic treatment in chronic anemia HF patients, may contribute to improving Hb levels and clinical outcomes. Although preliminary studies showed a beneficial effect of EPO therapy on cardiac efficiency and in HF, more recent studies have not confirmed this positive impact of EPO, alluding to its side effect profile. Physical exercise significantly increases Hb levels and the response of anemia to treatment. In malnourished patients and chronic inflammatory processes, low levels of anabolic hormones, such as testosterone and insulin-like growth factor-1, contribute to the development of chronic anemia. This paper aims to review the effect of nutrition, EPO, anabolic hormones, standard HF treatments, and exercise as regulatory mechanisms of chronic anemia and their cardiovascular consequences in patients with HF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the association between insulin-like growth factor-1 and nutritional status indicators in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). METHODS Patients undergoing MHD for > 3 months were included in this single-center cross-sectional study in March 2021. Clinical, demographic, and body mass data and blood samples were collected before the hemodialysis sessions. Serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels were measured using a radioimmunoassay, and serum IGF-1 standard deviation score (SDS) was calculated for MHD patients according to age and sex. The nutritional status of patients was assessed using serum albumin, serum prealbumin, handgrip strength, pinching strength, upper arm muscle circumference, lean body mass, phase angle, seven-point subjective global assessment (SGA) score, and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI). The patients were divided into groups according to tertiles of serum IGF-1 SDS levels. Spearman correlation analyses and univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression analyses were used to determine the association between serum IGF-1 SDS and nutritional status parameters. RESULTS A total of 155 MHD patients (male: female = 90:65) were enrolled in the study, with a median dialysis vintage of 28.0 (11.0, 55.0) months, and an average age of 66 (65.5 ± 13.0) years. The median of IGF-1 SDS was - 0.1 (- 0.6 to 0.6). Compared to patients with higher IGF-1 SDSs, patients with lower IGF-1 SDSs had lower levels of serum ceruloplasmin (341.0 [287.5, 416.0] vs 395.0 [327.0, 451.0] vs 409.0 [349.5, 507.5], p = 0.002), serum albumin (34.7 ± 3.0 vs 37.0 ± 3.1 vs 37.8 ± 2.6, p < 0.001), serum prealbumin (270.3 [233.7, 327.8] vs 326.0 [279.3, 355.6] vs 363.0 [324.2, 398.2], p < 0.001), handgrip strength (13.8 [10.0, 20.7] vs 17.7 [10.7, 22.5] vs 23.3 [16.6, 27.8], p < 0.001), pinch strength (4.6 [3.9, 6.0] vs 4.9 (3.9, 6.9) vs 6.5 [4.7, 8.7], p = 0.002), phase angle (3.3 [3.0, 3.8] vs 3.9 [3.4, 4.7] vs 4.3 [3.6, 5.2, p < 0.001), modified Creatinine Index (83.1 ± 19.7 vs 93.1 ± 23.4 vs 113.9 ± 24.3, p < 0.001), intracellular water (14.5 ± 4.4 vs 16.1 ± 4.9 vs 16.9 ± 4.4, p = 0.031), higher extracellular water (26.9 ± 5.8 vs 25.7 ± 5.5 vs 25.1 ± 3.1, p = 0.042), and higher malnutrition risk as defined by GNRI (49.0% vs 15.7% vs 11.5%, p < 0.001) and SGA (53.9% vs 23.5% vs 7.7%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Lower IGF-1 SDSs are independently associated with higher malnutrition risk in patients with MHD.

Abstract
Muscle wasting in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is an escalating issue due to the increasing global prevalence of ESRD and its significant clinical impact, including a close association with elevated mortality risk. The phenomenon of muscle wasting in ESRD, which exceeds the rate of muscle loss observed in the normal aging process, arises from multifactorial processes. This review paper aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of muscle wasting in ESRD, covering its epidemiology, underlying molecular mechanisms, and current and emerging therapeutic interventions. It delves into the assessment techniques for muscle mass and function, before exploring the intricate metabolic and molecular pathways that lead to muscle atrophy in ESRD patients. We further discuss various strategies to mitigate muscle wasting, including nutritional, pharmacological, exercise, and physical modalities intervention. This review seeks to provide a solid foundation for future research in this area, fostering a deeper understanding of muscle wasting in ESRD, and paving the way for the development of novel strategies to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Redox signaling alterations contribute to chronic kidney disease (CKD)-associated cachexia. This review aims to summarize studies about redox pathophysiology in CKD-associated cachexia and muscle wasting and to discuss potential therapeutic approaches based on antioxidant and anti-inflammatory molecules to restore redox homeostasis. Enzymatic and non-enzymatic systems of antioxidant molecules have been studied in experimental models of kidney diseases and patients with CKD. Oxidative stress is increased by several factors present in CKD, including uremic toxins, inflammation, and metabolic and hormone alterations, leading to muscle wasting. Rehabilitative nutritional and physical exercises have shown beneficial effects for CKD-associated cachexia. Anti-inflammatory molecules have also been tested in experimental models of CKD. The importance of oxidative stress has been shown by experimental studies in which antioxidant therapies ameliorated CKD and its associated complications in the 5/6 nephrectomy model. Treatment of CKD-associated cachexia is a challenge and further studies are necessary to investigate potential therapies involving antioxidant therapy.

Nutritional status and the risk of malnutrition in older adults with chronic kidney disease - implications for low protein intake and nutritional care: A critical review endorsed by ERN-ERA and ESPEN. Clin Nutr 2023; 42:443-457.

Abstract
Increased life expectancy is posing unprecedented challenges to healthcare systems worldwide. These include a sharp increase in the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and of impaired nutritional status with malnutrition-protein-energy wasting (PEW) that portends worse clinical outcomes, including reduced survival. In older adults with CKD, a nutritional dilemma occurs when indications from geriatric nutritional guidelines to maintain the protein intake above 1.0 g/kg/day to prevent malnutrition need to be adapted to the indications from nephrology guidelines, to reduce protein intake in order to prevent or slow CKD progression and improve metabolic abnormalities. To address these issues, the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) and the European Renal Nutrition group of the European Renal Association (ERN-ERA) have prepared this conjoint critical review paper, whose objective is to summarize key concepts related to prevention and treatment of both CKD progression and impaired nutritional status using dietary approaches, and to provide guidance on how to define optimal protein and energy intake in older adults with differing severity of CKD. Overall, the authors support careful assessment to identify the most urgent clinical challenge and the consequent treatment priority. The presence of malnutrition-protein-energy wasting (PEW) suggests the need to avoid or postpone protein restriction, particularly in the presence of stable kidney function and considering the patient's preferences and quality of life. CKD progression and advanced CKD stage support prioritization of protein restriction in the presence of a good nutritional status. Individual risk-benefit assessment and appropriate nutritional monitoring should guide the decision-making process. Higher awareness of the challenges of nutritional care in older adult patients with CKD is needed to improve care and outcomes. Research is advocated to support evidence-based recommendations, which we still lack for this increasingly large patient subgroup.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a highly prevalent condition worldwide in which the kidneys lose many abilities, such as the regulation of vitamin D (VD) metabolism. Moreover, people with CKD are at a higher risk of multifactorial VD deficiency, which has been extensively associated with poor outcomes, including bone disease, cardiovascular disease, and higher mortality. Evidence is abundant in terms of the association of negative outcomes with low levels of VD, but recent studies have lowered previous high expectations regarding the beneficial effects of VD supplementation in the general population. Although controversies still exist, the diagnosis and treatment of VD have not been excluded from nephrology guidelines, and much data still supports VD supplementation in CKD patients. In this narrative review, we briefly summarize evolving controversies and useful clinical approaches, underscoring that the adverse effects of VD derivatives must be balanced against the need for effective prevention of progressive and severe secondary hyperparathyroidism. Guidelines vary, but there seems to be general agreement that VD deficiency should be avoided in CKD patients, and it is likely that one should not wait until severe SHPT is present before cautiously starting VD derivatives. Furthermore, it is emphasized that the goal should not be the complete normalization of parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. New developments may help us to better define optimal VD and PTH at different CKD stages, but large trials are still needed to confirm that VD and precise control of these and other CKD-MBD biomarkers are unequivocally related to improved hard outcomes in this population.

Abstract
Background and aims Sarcopenia has a higher occurrence rate in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) than in the general population. Low handgrip strength-and not sarcopenia per se-is associated with clinical outcomes in patients with CKD, including cardiovascular mortality and hospitalization. The factors contributing to low handgrip strength are still unknown. Accordingly, this study aimed to determine whether uremic toxins influence low handgrip strength in patients with CKD. Materials and methods This cohort study lasted from August 2018 to January 2020. The participants were divided into three groups: the control group [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 ml/min], an advanced CKD group (eGFR = 15-60 ml/min), and an ESRD group (under maintenance renal replacement therapy). All participants underwent handgrip strength measurement, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and blood sampling for myokines (irisin, myostatin, and interleukin 6) and indoxyl sulfate. Sarcopenia was defined according to the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia consensus as low appendicular skeletal muscle index (appendicular skeletal muscle/height2 of < 7.0 kg/m2 in men and < 5.4 kg/m2 in women) and low handgrip strength (< 28 kg in men and < 18 kg in women). Results Among the study participants (control: n = 16; CKD: n = 17; and ESRD: n = 42), the ESRD group had the highest prevalence of low handgrip strength (41.6 vs. 25% and 5.85% in the control and CKD groups, respectively; p < 0.05). The sarcopenia rate was similar among the groups (12.5, 17.6, and 19.5% for the control, CKD, and ESRD groups, respectively; p = 0.864). Low handgrip strength was associated with high hospitalization rates within the total study population during the 600-day follow-up period (p = 0.02). The predictions for cardiovascular mortality and hospitalization were similar among patients with and without sarcopenia (p = 0.190 and p = 0.094). The serum concentrations of indoxyl sulfate were higher in the ESRD group (227.29 ± 92.65 μM vs. 41.97 ± 43.96 μM and 6.54 ± 3.45 μM for the CKD and control groups, respectively; p < 0.05). Myokine concentrations were similar among groups. Indoxyl sulfate was associated with low handgrip strength in univariate and multivariate logistic regression models [univariate odds ratio (OR): 3.485, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.372-8.852, p = 0.001; multivariate OR: 8.525, 95% CI: 1.807-40.207, p = 0.007]. Conclusion Handgrip strength was lower in the patients with ESRD, and low handgrip strength was predictive of hospitalization in the total study population. Indoxyl sulfate contributed to low handgrip strength and counteracted the benefits of myokines in patients with CKD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a high-risk chronic catabolic disease due to its high morbidity and mortality. CKD is accompanied by many complications, leading to a poor quality of life, and serious complications may even threaten the life of CKD patients. Muscle atrophy is a common complication of CKD. Muscle atrophy and sarcopenia in CKD patients have complex pathways that are related to multiple mechanisms and related factors. This review not only discusses the mechanisms by which inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction promote CKD-induced muscle atrophy but also explores other CKD-related complications, such as metabolic acidosis, vitamin D deficiency, anorexia, and excess angiotensin II, as well as other related factors that play a role in CKD muscle atrophy, such as insulin resistance, hormones, hemodialysis, uremic toxins, intestinal flora imbalance, and miRNA. We highlight potential treatments and drugs that can effectively treat CKD-induced muscle atrophy in terms of complication treatment, nutritional supplementation, physical exercise, and drug intervention, thereby helping to improve the prognosis and quality of life of CKD patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Muscle wasting is an important health problem in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Protein restriction in the diet can be one of the main causes of muscle wasting in this population. In this review, we aimed to investigate the relationship between dietary protein intake and muscle wasting in CKD patients according to recent literature. RECENT FINDINGS The one of the main mechanisms responsible for the muscle wasting is the disturbances in skeletal muscle protein turnover. Muscle wasting primarily occurs when the rates of muscle protein breakdown exceed the muscle protein synthesis. Dietary protein intake represents an important role by causing a potent anabolic stimulus resulting a positive muscle protein balance. Compared to studies made in healthy populations, there are very limited studies in the literature about the relationship between dietary protein intake and muscle wasting in the CKD population. Majority of the studies showed that a more liberal protein intake is beneficial for muscle wasting in especially advanced CKD and hemodialysis population. SUMMARY Although evaluating muscle wasting in CKD patients, the amount of protein in the diet of patients should also be reviewed. Although excessive protein intake has some negative consequences on this patient group, a more liberated dietary protein intake should be taken into account in this patient group with muscle wasting and especially in dialysis patients.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle, the main metabolic engine in the body of vertebrates, is endowed with great plasticity. The association between skeletal muscle plasticity and two highly prevalent health problems: renal dysfunction and obesity, which share etiologic links as well as many comorbidities, is a subject of great relevance. It is important to know how these alterations impact on the structure and function of skeletal muscle because the changes in muscle phenotype have a major influence on the quality of life of the patients. This literature review aims to discuss the influence of a nontraditional axis involving kidney, bone, and muscle on skeletal muscle plasticity. In this axis, the kidneys play a role as the main site for vitamin D activation. Renal disease leads to a direct decrease in 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D, secondary to reduction in renal functional mass, and has an indirect effect, through phosphate retention, that contributes to stimulate fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) secretion by bone cells. FGF23 downregulates the renal synthesis of 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D and upregulates its metabolism. Skeletal production of FGF23 is also regulated by caloric intake: it is increased in obesity and decreased by caloric restriction, and these changes impact on 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D concentrations, which are decreased in obesity and increased after caloric restriction. Thus, both phosphate retention, that develops secondary to renal failure, and caloric intake influence 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D that in turn plays a key role in muscle anabolism.

Growth Hormone Improves Adipose Tissue Browning and Muscle Wasting in Mice with Chronic Kidney Disease-Associated Cachexia. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232315310.

Abstract
Cachexia associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been linked to GH resistance. In CKD, GH treatment enhances muscular performance. We investigated the impact of GH on cachexia brought on by CKD. CKD was induced by 5/6 nephrectomy in c57BL/6J mice. After receiving GH (10 mg/kg/day) or saline treatment for six weeks, CKD mice were compared to sham-operated controls. GH normalized metabolic rate, increased food intake and weight growth, and improved in vivo muscular function (rotarod and grip strength) in CKD mice. GH decreased uncoupling proteins (UCP)s and increased muscle and adipose tissue ATP content in CKD mice. GH decreased lipolysis of adipose tissue by attenuating expression and protein content of adipose triglyceride lipase and protein content of phosphorylated hormone-sensitive lipase in CKD mice. GH reversed the increased expression of beige adipocyte markers (UCP-1, CD137, Tmem26, Tbx1, Prdm16, Pgc1α, and Cidea) and molecules implicated in adipose tissue browning (Cox2/Pgf2α, Tlr2, Myd88, and Traf6) in CKD mice. Additionally, GH normalized the molecular markers of processes connected to muscle wasting in CKD, such as myogenesis and muscle regeneration. By using RNAseq, we previously determined the top 12 skeletal muscle genes differentially expressed between mice with CKD and control animals. These 12 genes' aberrant expression has been linked to increased muscle thermogenesis, fibrosis, and poor muscle and neuron regeneration. In this study, we demonstrated that GH restored 7 of the top 12 differentially elevated muscle genes in CKD mice. In conclusion, GH might be an effective treatment for muscular atrophy and browning of adipose tissue in CKD-related cachexia.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review summarizes literature from the last 18 months reporting on sarcopenia (or its components) in chronic kidney disease (CKD). RECENT FINDINGS The prevalence of sarcopenia in CKD is reported to be 5-62.5%, with higher rates observed later in the disease. Sarcopenic obesity rates are reported to be 2-23%. Sarcopenia in CKD is associated with increased risk of mortality, cardiovascular disease and vascular calcification. Risk factors include kidney disease itself and the impacts of CKD on lifestyle (reduced physical activity, diet changes). In earlier stages of CKD, if the risks from sarcopenia outweigh the risk of reaching end-stage renal disease, ensuring adequate energy intake combined with modest protein liberalization and physical activity may be indicated. Protein intakes above 1.3 g/kg of body weight per day should be avoided. For dialysis patients, interventions that provide a combination of carbohydrate, protein and fat appear more effective than those that provide protein alone, though it may take as long as 48 weeks for detectable changes in muscle mass. SUMMARY Sarcopenia is prevalent in CKD as kidney disease significantly impacts muscle mass and function. Nutrition interventions can improve components of sarcopenia, with an emphasis on adequate energy and protein.

Associations of Dynapenic Obesity and Sarcopenic Obesity with the Risk of Complications in COVID-19. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23158277.

Abstract
Ageing is associated with changes in body composition, such as low muscle mass (sarcopenia), decreased grip strength or physical function (dynapenia), and accumulation of fat mass. When the accumulation of fat mass synergistically accompanies low muscle mass or reduced grip strength, it results in sarcopenic obesity and dynapenic obesity, respectively. These types of obesity contribute to the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality in the elderly, which could increase the damage caused by COVID-19. In this review, we associated factors that could generate a higher risk of COVID-19 complications in dynapenic obesity and sarcopenic obesity. For example, skeletal muscle regulates the expression of inflammatory cytokines and supports metabolic stress in pulmonary disease; hence, the presence of dynapenic obesity or sarcopenic obesity could be related to a poor prognosis in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
AbstractAn aging population and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle-related diseases have led to a worldwide increase in the rate of chronic kidney disease requiring renal replacement therapy. The mean age of individuals requiring dialysis therapy has been increasing, and Japanese patients are aging more rapidly than those in the USA and Europe. Patients undergoing renal replacement therapy are at increased risk of sarcopenia/frailty compared with people with normal kidney function due to comorbid burden, long-standing malnutrition, chronic inflammation, metabolic acidosis, anabolic resistance, hormonal changes, physical inactivity and amino acid loss via dialysis treatment in addition to aging. Sarcopenia and frailty are serious global health problems that can decrease access to kidney transplantation and lead to various adverse health outcomes, including functional dependence, hospitalizations and deaths in patients on dialysis treatment. However, sarcopenia/frailty fortunately is potentially modifiable by early identification of poor physical functioning, sustainment and enhancement of daily physical activity, and participation in exercise treatments. The Japanese Society of Renal Rehabilitation was established in 2011 and published a clinical practice guideline for “Renal Rehabilitation” targeting nondialysis-dependent and dialysis-dependent patients and renal transplant recipients, in 2019. The guideline emphasized the importance of physical management for patients with kidney diseases in addition to nutritional supports and anemia management. Kidney health professionals should manage sarcopenia and physical frailty as a part of routine clinical care for patients undergoing hemodialysis to improve poor physical functioning, functional dependence, decreased quality of life and poor prognosis.
