dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to verify possible associations between relative handgrip strength (HGS) and clinical variables in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). A total of 39 patients with CKD from a private clinic in the city of Brasília participated in this study. The subjects’ HGS was measured by a dynamometer. Body composition was estimated by bioimpedance. The biochemical analyses were performed by the private clinic. The sample was stratified into tertiles according to the relative HGS, forming two groups: G1 - lower and medium tertiles (n = 26) and G2 - superior tertile (n = 13). Pearson correlation test was used and, for the comparative analysis between groups, the Student's t-test for independent samples (P<0.05). The G2 group presented better results in the variables body mass index, fat mass, body fat, C-reactive protein (CRP), and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) compared to the G1 group. Relative HGS was associated with CRP, CPK, lean body mass, and body fat. Higher values of relative HGS presented better results for the variables that predict cardiovascular diseases and mortalitypt_PT
