Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Comparison of routine office blood pressure measurement versus standardized attended manually activated oscillometric office blood pressure measurement in patients with chronic kidney disease

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care
Context: Erroneous blood pressure measurement could lead to improper treatment and hence progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In routine clinical practice, there is poor adherence to the various steps to be followed during blood pressure ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Risk factors and preventive measures for abnormal blood pressure during hemodialysis filtration for patients with sepsis [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled
Background/Aim. Hemodialysis filtration (HDF) plays an extremely important role in treating patients with sepsis and subsequent acute renal failure. However, abnormal blood pressure (ABP) during HDF badly influences the prognosis and increases all-cause ...

EFFECT OF ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME INHIBITOR ENALAPRIL ON SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE OF THE CAMEL [PDF]

Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1998
The effect of Enalapril (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, ACE 1) on systolic blood pressure was studied on the Arabian camel (Camelus dromedarius). Ten camels were divided into two groups of five animals each. Group one animals were injected each
