Alterations in physical performance and body composition in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease detected by a comprehensive multidimensional analysis
Key takeaways
Researchers measured strength, movement, and body makeup in people with kidney disease who are not on dialysis. They looked at several measures together instead of one at a time, and found differences across them. This shows a link between kidney disease and weaker physical function, not proof of cause. It is a preprint, so other scientists have not reviewed it yet.
