Musculoskeletal pain in patients with chronic kidney disease.

CONCLUSIONS: CMP is highly prevalent in patients with advanced CKD and is associated with other common symptoms of chronic uraemia. As with the general population, elderly age, the female gender, obesity and some comorbid conditions are the best determinants of CMP. Increased inflammatory markers commonly observed in patients with CMP may have a relevant role in its pathogenesis. PMID: 27267921 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
