A multi-center randomized controlled trial to investigate potential effects of exercise therapy on renal function stratified by renal disorders and renal pathology: beneficial or harmful effect in immunoglobulin a nephropathy. Clin Exp Nephrol 2024; 28:539-546. [PMID: 38402501 DOI: 10.1007/s10157-024-02461-2] [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: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of exercise therapy (ET) on renal function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain unclear. METHODS In a randomized controlled trial (UMIN-CTR number: UMIN000038415), we investigated whether ET affects renal function in CKD; eligible patients had undergone renal biopsy in the past 3 months. We stratified patients by disease (immunoglobulin A [IgA] nephropathy, n = 16; diabetic nephropathy, n = 4; benign nephrosclerosis, n = 13; and other CKD types, n = 13) and randomized them to 12 weeks' observation and 24 weeks' ET comprising home-based aerobic exercise 3×/week and resistance training 2×/week (intervention group) or usual care (non-intervention group). Primary endpoint was creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or serum cystatin C-based eGFR (eGFRcys). Secondary endpoints included urinary protein and exercise tolerance. RESULTS Seventy patients were enrolled, 50 fulfilled the inclusion criteria, but 4 discontinued before randomization. No items significantly differed between week 0 to 24 in either group (intervention group, n = 23; non-intervention group, n = 23) or between groups at week 24 (intention-to-treat population) in the total study population. The eGFRcys slope showed no significant intergroup difference in the observation period, but eGFRcys improved significantly in IgA nephropathy patients (n = 16) in the intervention group (stratified comparison; week 0, 48.3 ± 18.2; week 24, 51.6 ± 17.6; p = 0.043). In these patients, urinary protein was significantly worse at week 24 in the non-intervention group (p = 0.046) and worsened significantly less in the intervention group (p = 0.039). CONCLUSION ET did not improve renal function overall in CKD patients but might help maintain renal function in patients with IgA nephropathy.

Home-based exercise in dialysis patients with end-stage renal disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Complement Ther Clin Pract 2024; 54:101822. [PMID: 38048651 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctcp.2023.101822] [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: 09/03/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lack of exercise may reduce the quality of life, physical capability, and functional capability of dialysis patients. Home-based exercise seems to be a desirable form of low-cost intervention. But the effectiveness of this intervention in the dialysis population is still unclear. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to provide effective evidence to determine the impact of home-based exercise on functional capacity, physical capacity, muscular strength, biochemical parameters, and health-related quality of life among dialysis patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from inception to May 2023, to identify potential randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effectiveness of home-based exercise in dialysis patients with ESRD. Two independent reviewers selected studies, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias using the Cochrane tool. Evidence summary using fixed or random effects for meta-analysis. RESULTS Twelve RCTs including 1008 dialysis patients met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis showed significant effects of home-based exercise on physical capacity. Seven studies reported the results of the 6-min walking test, compared with short-term (0-3 months) home-based exercise (P = 0.76), long-term (3-6 months) interventions (P < 0.001) can significantly improve the results of the 6-min walking test. The results showed that home-based exercise did significantly improve patients' VO2 peak (P = 0.007). Compared with center-based exercise or usual care, home exercise did not significantly improve handgrip strength, quality of life or CRP and other biochemical parameters (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The results showed that long-term home-based exercise can improve walking ability. In addition, home-based exercise had the benefit on the VO2 peak of ESRD patients receiving dialysis patients. However, there was no statistically significant difference in handgrip strength, health-related quality of life, CRP, and other biochemical parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Residual kidney function (RKF) impacts patients' survival rate and quality of life when undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). This meta-analysis was conducted to systematically identify risk and protective factors associated with RKF decline and loss. METHODS We searched three English and one Chinese databases from inception to January 31, 2023, for cohort and cross-sectional studies exploring factors associated with RKF decline or loss. The random effects model was employed to aggregate risk estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) from multivariate analysis. Sensitivity and subgroup analyses were performed to explore the heterogeneity among the studies. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies comprising 13549 individuals and 14 factors were included in the meta-analysis. Based on the meta-analysis results, risk factors involving male gender (hazard ratio (HR) 1.689, 95%CI 1.385-2.061), greater body mass index (BMI) (odds ratio (OR) 1.081, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.029-1.135), higher systolic blood pressure (SBP) (HR 1.014, 95%CI 1.005-1.024), diabetes mellitus (DM) (HRRKF loss 1.873, 95%CI 1.475-2.378), DM (ORRKF decline 1.906, 95%CI 1.262-2.879), peritonitis (relative ratio (RR) 2.291, 95%CI 1.633-3.213), proteinuria (OR 1.223, 95%CI 1.117-1.338), and elevated serum phosphorus (RR 2.655, 95%CI 1.679-4.201) significantly contributed to the risk of RKF decline and loss in PD patients. Conversely, older age (HR 0.968, 95%CI 0.956-0.981), higher serum albumin (OR 0.834, 95%CI 0.720-0.966), weekly Kt/V urea (HR 0.414, 95%CI 0.248-0.690), baseline urine volume (UV) (HR 0.791, 95%CI 0.639-0.979), baseline RKF (HR 0.795, 95%CI 0.739-0.857) exhibited protective effects. However, diuretics use, automatic peritoneal dialysis (APD) modality and baseline RKF did not significantly impact RKF decline. CONCLUSIONS Patients with male gender, greater BMI, higher SBP, DM, peritonitis, proteinuria, and elevated serum phosphorus might have a higher risk of RKF decline and loss. In contrast, older age, higher serum albumin, weekly Kt/V urea, baseline UV, and baseline RKF might protect against RKF deterioration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of home-based exercise on physical performance and quality of life (QoL) in patients on maintenance dialysis has not yet been fully established. METHODS We searched four large electronic databases to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting the impact of home-based exercise interventions vs. usual care or intradialytic exercise interventions, on physical performance and QoL in patients on dialysis. The meta-analysis was performed using fixed effects modeling. RESULTS We included 12 unique RCTs involving 791 patients of various ages on maintenance dialysis. Home-based exercise interventions were associated with an improvement of walking speed at the 6 Minutes Walking Test [6MWT; nine RCTs; pooled weighted mean differences (WMD): 33.7 m, 95% confidence interval (CI) 22.8-44.5; P < 0.001; I2 = 0%) and in aerobic capacity as assessed by the peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak; 3 RCTs; pooled WMD: 2.04 ml/kg/min, 95% CI 0.25-3.83; P = 0.03; I2 = 0%). They were also associated with improved QoL, as assessed by the Short Form (36) Health (SF-36) score. Stratifying the RCTs by control groups, no significant difference was found between home-based exercise and intradialytic exercise interventions. Funnel plots did not reveal any significant publication bias. CONCLUSIONS Our systematic review and meta-analysis showed that home-based exercise interventions for 3-6 months were associated with significant improvements in physical performance in patients on maintenance dialysis. However, further RCTs with a longer follow-up should be conducted to assess the safety, adherence, feasibility, and effects on QoL of home-based exercise programs in dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The potential effects of aerobic and resistance training in patients with severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) are not fully elucidated. This study investigated the effects of a home-based exercise programme on physical functioning and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with Stage 4 CKD, equivalent to estimated glomerular filtration rate of 15-30 mL/min/1.73 m2 . METHODS Forty-six patients with Stage 4 CKD (median age, 73 years; 33 men) were randomly assigned to exercise (n = 23) and control (n = 23) groups. Exercise group patients performed aerobic exercise at 40-60% peak heart rate thrice weekly and resistance training at 70% of one-repetition maximum twice weekly at home for 6 months. Control patients received no specific intervention. Primary outcomes were distance in incremental shuttle walking test and HRQOL assessed using the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form questionnaire. Secondary outcomes included kidney function assessed with combined urea and creatinine clearance, urinary biomarkers, and anthropometric and biochemical parameters associated with CKD. RESULTS Improvement in incremental shuttle walking test was significantly greater in the exercise group compared with controls (39.4 ± 54.6 vs. -21.3 ± 46.1; P < 0.001). Among Kidney Disease Quality of Life domains, significant mean differences were observed between the exercise group and the control group in work status, quality of social interaction, and kidney disease component summary outcomes (12.76 ± 5.76, P = 0.03; 5.97 ± 2.59, P = 0.03; and 4.81 ± 1.71, P = 0.007, respectively). There were greater reductions in natural log (ln)-transformed urinary excretion of liver-type fatty acid-binding protein, ln serum C-reactive protein, and acylcarnitine to free carnitine ratio in the exercise group compared with controls, with significant between-group differences of -0.579 ± 0.217 (P = 0.008), -1.13 ± 0.35 (P = 0.003), and -0. 058 ± 0.024 (P = 0.01), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our 6 month home-based exercise programme improved aerobic capacity and HRQOL in patients with Stage 4 CKD, with possible beneficial effects on kidney function and CKD-related parameters.

[PMID: 34912835 PMCID: PMC8666622 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.789521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims: Exercise is an efficient non-pharmacological intervention for chronic kidney disease. The study aims to evaluate the effects of Baduanjin exercise on physical function and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Methods: Seventy PD patients were randomly assigned to either the Baduanjin exercise group or the control group. Fifty-seven patients completed the study (exercise group, 25; control group, 32). The exercise group received the Baduanjin exercise program for 12 weeks. The control group received usual care. Three well-established performance-based tests determined physical function: five times sit-to-stand test (FTSST), timed up and go test (TUGT), and handgrip strength (HGS). HRQOL was assessed by the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form. Results: At baseline, no differences in physical function and HRQOL were observed between the Baduanjin exercise and the control group. At follow-up, the Baduanjin exercise group showed a marginally significant improvement in FTSST (P = 0.008) and TUGT (P = 0.040) over the 12 weeks compared to the control group. HRQOL in the Baduanjin exercise group was significantly higher than that of the control group. Conclusions: A 12-week Baduanjin exercise program may improve physical function and HRQOL in PD patients. Longer follow-up is needed to determine if these findings will translate into clinical application.

Abstract
More than 100 substances have been identified as biomarkers of acute kidney injury. These markers can help to diagnose acute kidney injury (AKI) in its early phase, when the creatinine level is not increased. The two markers most frequently studied in plasma and serum are cystatin C and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL). The former is a marker of kidney function and the latter is a marker of kidney damage. Some other promising serum markers, such as osteopontin and netrin-1, have also been proposed and studied. The list of promising urinary markers is much longer and includes cystatin C, NGAL, kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), liver-type fatty-acid-binding protein (L-FABP), interleukin 18, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) and many others. Although these markers are increased in urine for no longer than a few hours after nephrotoxic agent action, they are not widely used in clinical practice. Only combined IGFBP-7/TIMP-2 measurement was approved in some countries as a marker of AKI. Several studies have shown that the levels of urinary AKI biomarkers are increased after physical exercise. This systematic review focuses on studies concerning changes in new AKI biomarkers in healthy adults after single exercise. Twenty-seven papers were identified and analyzed in this review. The interpretation of results from different studies was difficult because of the variety of study groups, designs and methodology. The most convincing data concern cystatin C. There is evidence that cystatin C is a better indicator of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in athletes after exercise than creatinine and also at rest in athletes with a lean mass lower or higher than average. Serum and plasma NGAL are increased after prolonged exercise, but the level also depends on inflammation and hypoxia; therefore, it seems that in physical exercise, it is too sensitive for AKI diagnosis. It may, however, help to diagnose subclinical kidney injury, e.g., in rhabdomyolysis. Urinary biomarkers are increased after many types of exercise. Increases in NGAL, KIM-1, cystatin-C, L-FABP and interleukin 18 are common, but the levels of most urinary AKI biomarkers decrease rapidly after exercise. The importance of this short-term increase in AKI biomarkers after exercise is doubtful. It is not clear if it is a sign of mild kidney injury or physiological metabolic adaptation to exercise.
