The effect of therapeutic exercise and metabolic acidosis on skeletal muscle wasting in chronic kidney disease

Muscle wasting and increased proteolysis is a major problem in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Exercise is potentially beneficial, but has been under-investigated in pre-dialysis CKD and could theoretically worsen acidosis through exercise-induced lactic acid generation. We therefore investigated effe...
