Physical inactivity and protein energy wasting play independent roles in muscle weakness in maintenance haemodialysis patients.

Physical inactivity and protein energy wasting play independent roles in muscle weakness in maintenance haemodialysis patients.

BACKGROUND:Muscle weakness is associated with increased mortality risk in chronic haemodialysis (CHD) patients. Protein energy wasting (PEW) and low physical activity could impair muscle quality and contribute to muscle weakness beyond muscle wasting in these patients. Aim of this study was to asses...
