Muscle-Bone Crosstalk in Chronic Kidney Disease: The Potential Modulatory Effec...
Leal, Diogo V.; Ferreira, Aníbal; Watson, Emma L.; Wilund, Kenneth R.; Viana, João L.Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent worldwide public burden that increasingly compromises overall health as the disease progresses. Two of the most negatively affected tissues are bone and skeletal muscle, with CKD negatively impacting their structure, function and activity, impairing the quality of life of these patients and contributing to morbidity and mortality. Whereas skeletal health in this popul...
Accelerated decline in quadriceps area and Timed Up and Go test performance are...
Marques, Elisa A.; Elbejjani, Martine; Viana, João L.; Gudnason, Vilmundur; Sigurdsson, Gunnar; Lang, Thomas; Sigurdsson, Sigurdur; Aspelund, ThorThis study aimed to examine whether an accelerated decline in quadriceps cross-sectional area (CSA), attenuation (a surrogate of quality), and strength, as well as lower limb muscular function, are associated with hip fractures in older adults with impaired kidney function.
Response of the oxygen uptake efficiency slope to exercise training in patients...
Wilkinson, Thomas J.; Watson, Emma L.; Vadaszy, Noemi; Baker, Luke A.; Viana, João L.; Smith, Alice C.Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have poor cardiorespiratory fitness. Although cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is a universal assessment of cardiorespiratory fitness, values taken at 'peak' effort are strongly influenced by motivation and the choice of test endpoint. The oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES) integrates cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and respiratory function into a single index to...
Impact of physical activity and exercise on bone health in patients with chroni...
Cardoso, Daniela F.; Marques, Elisa A.; Leal, Diogo V.; Ferreira, Aníbal; Baker, Luke A.; Smith, Alice C.; Viana, João L.Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients frequently develop life-impairing bone mineral disorders. Despite the reported impact of exercise on bone health, systematic reviews of the evidence are lacking. This review examines the association of both physical activity (PA) and the effects of different exercise interventions with bone outcomes in CKD.

Intradialytic isometric handgrip exercise does not cause hemodynamic instabilit...
Ribeiro, Heitor S.; Cunha, Vinícius A.; Baiao, Victor M.; Almeida, Lucas S.; Dourado, Gustavo Í.; Carvalho, Helton L.; Duarte, Marvery P.Hemodialysis (HD) patients experience hemodynamic instability and intradialytic exercise seems to attenuate it. This study aimed to verify the acute hemodynamic response to different intradialytic handgrip exercise intensities in HD patients. In a randomized, cross-over, experimental pilot study, eight patients completed two experimental sessions and one control in random order: (a) regular HD; (b) low-intensit...
Impact of a supervised multicomponent physical exercise program on cognitive fu...
Leite, Nilton João Chantre; Mendes, Romeu Duarte Carneiro; Raimundo, Armando Manuel Mendonça; Pinho, Cristina; Viana, João L.This study evaluated the impact of a multicomponent exercise program on cognitive functions in participants with Type 2 Diabetes. Participants (n = 70, 65.6 ± 5.9 years) engaged in the program (75 min per session; 3 x week) for 32 weeks. A battery of cognitive tests was performed at baseline and study completion. Two groups were formed according to their attendance rate (low and high attendance), and statistica...
A Critical Review of Exercise Training in Hemodialysis Patients: Personalized A...
Wilund, Kenneth R.; Viana, João L.; Perez, Luis M.Exercise training appears to have modest or inconsistent benefits in hemodialysis patients. This may be due to the low volume and intensity of exercise often prescribed. To address this, research is needed to evaluate the efficacy of individualized exercise prescriptions as a component of a comprehensive lifestyle intervention strategy that gives patients more autonomy to choose preferred types of physical acti...
Twelve weeks of supervised exercise improves self-reported symptom burden and f...
Wilkinson, Thomas J.; Watson, Emma L.; Gould, Douglas W.; Xenophontos, Soteris; Clarke, Amy L.; Vogt, Barbara P. [UNESP]; Viana, João L.Made available in DSpace on 2019-10-06T15:38:28Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2019-01-01; Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients experience a high symptom burden including fatigue, sleep difficulties, muscle weakness and pain. These symptoms reduce levels of physical function (PF) and activity, and contribute to poor health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Despite the gathering evi...
Sustained exercise programs for hemodialysis patients: The characteristics of s...
Viana, João L.; Martins, Pedro; Parker, Kristen; Madero, Magdalena; Pérez Grovas, Héctor; Anding, Kirsten; Degenhardt, Stefan; Gabrys, IwonaDespite having good intentions, hemodialysis (HD) clinics often fail to sustain exercise programs that they initiate. There are many reasons for this, including a lack of funding, inadequate training of the clinic staff, a lack of exercise professionals to manage the program or train the staff, and the many challenges inherent to exercising a patient population with multiple comorbid diseases. Despite these bar...
