Advancing Exercise Science for Better Health Outcomes Across the Spectrum of Chronic Kidney Disease
Despite over 30 years of evidence for improvements in physical function, physical fitness, and health-related quality of life with exercise training in individuals with chronic kidney disease, access to dedicated exercise training programs remains outside the realm of standard of care for most kidney care program s. In this review, we explore possible reasons for this by comparing approaches in other chronic diseases where exercise rehabilitation has become the standard of care, identifying enablers and factors that need to be addressed for continued growth in this area, and discussing knowledge gaps for fut ure research...

COVID-19 and Nutrition: Focus on Chronic Kidney Disease
Some chronic diseases, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), may be associated with poor outcomes, including a high rate of hospitalization and death after COVID-19 infection. In addition to the vaccination program, diet intervention is essential for boosting immunity and preventing complications. A healthy diet containing bioactive compounds may help mitigate inflammatory responses and oxidative stress caused by COVID-19. In this review, we discuss dietary interventions for mitigating COVID-19 complications, including in persons with CKD, which can worsen COVID-19 symptoms and its clinical outcomes, while diet may help ...

Protect the kidneys and save the heart using the concept of food as medicine
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition to traditional risk factors, such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes and smoking, patients with CKD have a uremic phenotype marked by premature ageing, mitochondrial dysfunction, persistent low-grade inflammation, gut dysbiosis and oxidative stress. These complications contribute to abnormal vascular and myocardial remodelling processes, resulting in accelerated vascular calcification, cellular and organ senescence and a high risk of CVD.

New Insights Into Dietary Approaches to Potassium Management in Chronic Kidney Disease
Potassium disorders are one of the most common electrolyte abnormalities in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), contributing to poor clinical outcomes. Maintaining serum potassium levels within the physiologically normal range is critically important in these patients. Dietary potassium restriction has long been considered a core strategy for the management of chronic hyperkalemia in patients with CKD. However, this has been challenged by recent evidence suggesting a paradigm shift toward fostering more liberalized, plant-based dietary patterns. (Source: Journal of Renal Nutrition)

Sulforaphane supplementation did not modulate NRF2 and NF-kB mRNA expressions in hemodialysis patients
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have reduced expression of erythroid nuclear factor-related factor 2 (NRF2) and increased nuclear factor κB (NF-κB). “Food as Medicine” has been proposed as an adjuvant therapeutic alternative in modulating these factors. No studies have investigated the effects of sulforaphane (SFN) in cruciferous vegetables on the expression of these genes in patients with CKD. Objective: The study aimed to eva luate the effects of SFN on the expression of NRF2 and NF-κB in patients on hemodialysis (HD). (Source: Journal of Renal Nutrition)

Nutritional Considerations for Patients With Renal Failure Undergoing Sleeve Gastrectomy
Obesity is highly prevalent in patients with renal disease, as it contributes to or accelerates the progression of kidney disease and is frequently a barrier to kidney transplantation. Patients with renal disease have unique dietary needs due to various metabolic disturbances resulting from altered processing and clearance of nutrients. They also frequently present with physical disability, resulting in difficulty achieving adequate weight loss through lifestyle modifications. Therefore, kidney transplant candidates may benefit from bariatric surgery, particularly sleeve gastrectomy (SG), as the safest, most effective, and...

Identifying challenges and potential solutions for sustainable kidney care delivery in selected Asian Countries
Recent surveys highlight gross workforce shortage of dietitians in global kidney health and significant gaps in renal nutrition care, with disparities greater in low/low-middle income countries. This paper narrates ground experiences gained through the Palm Tocotrienols in Chronic Hemodialysis (PaTCH) project on kidney nutrition care scenarios and some Asian low-to-middle-income countries (LMICs) namely Bangladesh, India and Malaysia. Core PaTCH investigators from 3 universities (USA and Malaysia) were supported by their postgraduate students (n=17) with capacity skills in kidney nutrition care methodology and processes. (...
