Effect of Resistance Exercise Plus Cholecalciferol on Nutritional Status Indicators in Adults With Stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disease

Decreased serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) affect people with chronic kidney disease (CKD); lower concentrations of 25(OH)D have been associated with decrease in nutritional status indicators. On the other hand, muscle resistance exercise has improved the nutritional status of patients with CKD.The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of resistance exercise and dietary supplementation with cholecalciferol on nutritional status indicators in adults with stage 4 CKD.
