Resumo(s)

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is associated with mineral and bone disorders (MBD), which can induce bone loss in those patients. These bone comorbidities tend to aggravate with disease progression, leading to greater bone loss in later stages of kidney disease, particularly those on dialysis. Furthermore, dialysis patients tend to have low levels of physical function and physical activity (PA), that could contribute to greater bone loss. However, exercise has been pointing as a non-pharmacological adjunct strategy to improve bone health in e.g., individuals with osteoporosis; however, there is still little evidence regarding its effect in CKD patients, particularly those on haemodialysis (HD) treatment.
