Multimorbidity and Sarcopenia Feasibility Study in Chronic Kidney Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Sept 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of this research study is to look at the body composition (such as muscle and fat) in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and comparing it with body composition is people without CKD. The investigators currently understand loss of muscle function and mass (sarcopenia) affect the general health of people as they age, but this process seems to be more common, accelerated, and occurs earlier in people with CKD. There is limited evidence in this area, and we believe that if we understand when and how sarcopenia affects people with CKD, investigators can guide future trials and treatments to help treat sarcopenia, and in turn improve quality of life and health outcomes in people with CKD.
