First seen Apr 16, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at why people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) often lose muscle mass and strength, a condition called sarcopenia. Researchers will follow 1000 adults with CKD to find risk factors for muscle loss and see how it relates to worse health outcomes like disease progression or death. The goal is to better understand this problem so doctors can prevent it in the future.
