Multimodal interventions for cachexia management.

Cachexia (disease-related wasting) is a complex metabolic syndrome which occurs in people with chronic illnesses, including cancer, HIV/AIDS, kidney disease, heart disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). People with cachexia experience unintentional weight loss, muscle loss, fatigue, loss of...

Body Composition and Intradialytic Exercise in Kidney Disease: A Combined Analysis of the PEDAL and CYCLE-HD Randomised Controlled Trials.

Haemodialysis patients are at high risk of myopenic obesity, necessitating effective nutritional status monitoring and intervention strategies. This combined analysis of two clinical trials (PEDAL trial and CYCLE-HD study) aimed to (i) determine the clinical utility of body mass index...

Gait Speed and All-Cause Mortality in Whole-Spectrum Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Included 6217 Participants.

The quantitative relationship between gait speed and mortality risk in patients with chronic kidney disease remains unclear. This study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis to estimate the risk of mortality associated with gait speed in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients....

Device-Measured Physical Activity, Sedentary Behaviour and Risk of Chronic Kidney Diseases Across Levels of Grip Strength.

The study aimed to investigate whether the associations of accelerometer-measured physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) with incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) vary based on different levels of hand grip strength, identifying the modifying role of grip strength in...

Multiomics Analysis Reveals Therapeutic Targets for Chronic Kidney Disease With Sarcopenia.

The presence of sarcopenia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with poor prognosis. The mechanism underlying CKD-induced muscle wasting has not yet been fully explored. This study investigates the influence of renal secretions on muscles using multiomics...

A fluorescent aptasensor for deoxynivalenol detection based on Nb.BbvCI-assisted targeted-responsive three-way junctions integrated DNA walking machine.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination in cereals is a widespread issue with global implications, necessitating the development of efficient detection methods. Here, a fluorescent aptasensor integrating target-responsive DNA three-way junction (TWJ) and DNA walking machine was developed to detect DON. The DON-specific...

The lived experience of renal cachexia: An interpretive phenomenological analysis.

Chronic kidney disease is common, affecting up to 13 % of the global population, and is predicted to become the fifth leading cause of 'life years lost' by 2040. Individuals with end-stage kidney disease commonly develop complications such as protein-energy...

Change in physical activity and its association with decline in kidney function: A UK Biobank-based cohort study.

Previous research on the association between physical activity (PA) and kidney function is inconsistent. The association between muscle mass and serum creatinine (SCr) may have implications for interpreting the effect of PA on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Few studies...

Leptin signalling altered in infantile nephropathic cystinosis-related bone disorder.

The CTNS gene mutation causes infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC). Patients with INC develop Fanconi syndrome and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with significant bone deformations. C57BL/6 Ctns mice are an animal model for studying INC. Hyperleptinaemia results from the kidney's inability...

Improved health by combining dietary restriction and promoting muscle growth in DNA repair-deficient progeroid mice.

Ageing is a complex multifactorial process, impacting all organs and tissues, with DNA damage accumulation serving as a common underlying cause. To decelerate ageing, various strategies have been applied to model organisms and evaluated for health and lifespan benefits. Dietary...

Skeletal muscle and visceral adipose radiodensities are pre-surgical, non-invasive markers of aggressive kidney cancer.

Most studies on body composition in kidney cancer have been conducted among patients with metastatic disease. Given that aggressive tumours can adversely impact body composition and even non-metastatic tumours can be aggressive, we evaluated associations between pre-surgical body composition features...
