Thresholds of handgrip strength for all-cause mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease: a secondary systematic review with dose-response meta-analysis

CONCLUSION: A U-shaped association exists between handgrip strength and all-cause mortality risk in CKD patients. Future studies with quantitative measurements for each CKD stage will help to determine precise relative risk estimates between handgrip strength and mortality risk in patients with different stages of CKD.PMID:38247440 | PMC:PMC10810645 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2305855
