NCT ID NCT06754280
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 03, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a program to help Black adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) reduce their daily sitting time. Half of the 40 participants will receive support to sit less, while the other half will get general CKD education. The goal is to see if cutting down on sitting can improve health and quality of life over 12 weeks.
