The expected changes with different periods of home-based resistance exercise in patients with chronic kidney disease.
Observational study in Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe comprehensive impact of prolonged home-based resistance training on individuals grappling with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have yet to be fully elucidated. This study aimed to explore the outcomes of varying exercise durations on physical performance, nutritional status, and kidney function within this specific population, encompassing patients undergoing dialysis and those affected by severe sarcopenia.
methodsThis was a 1-year observational double cohort study following a 52-week longitudinal design, we enrolled 101 adult CKD outpatients. These participants were divided into two groups: the continuous group, comprising individuals who consistently exercised for over 6 months, and the interrupted group, which included those who did not sustain regular exercise for the same duration. The exercise regimen involved resistance exercises conducted at least 3 to 5 days per week, involving activities like lifting dumbbells and executing weighted wall squats. Physical activity assessments and biochemical blood tests were conducted at weeks 0, 4, 16, 28, 40, and 52 for all participants.
resultsThe continuous exercise group exhibited better handgrip strength and sit-to-stand movement compared to the interrupted group. Their estimated glomerular filtration rate stayed steady while the interrupted group was declined. Additionally, those who exercised consistently had better metabolism: higher carbon dioxide levels, increased albumin, better nutritional scores, and lower levels of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, fasting blood glucose, and body weight. Subsequent adjustments for potential confounding factors continued to show improved physical performance and kidney function over time.
conclusionOur findings indicate the advantageous impact of extended resistance exercise training on overall health of CKD patients, even those on dialysis or with severe sarcopenia. Dedication to this exercise routine could improve kidney function, metabolism, and physical abilities in these patients.
