Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis-related pulmonary restriction: An under-appreciated manifestation potentially reversible with imatinib therapy
We report a case of severe nephrogenic systemic fibrosis with extensive skin fibrosis causing extrapulmonary restriction who demonstrated improved lung function following treatment with imatinib.PMID:36211205 | PMC:PMC9537706 | DOI:10.1177/23971983221088213

Effect of Intradialytic Supine Ergometer Exercise on Hemodialysis Patients with Different Nutritional Status
CONCLUSION: The result of this study may indicate that 6MD can be improved by exercise during dialysis, regardless of nutritional status. It is said that low nutritional status has a negative impact on survival rate; thus, considering the impact on survival rate, it is hemodialysis patients with a low nutritional status that should be considered to introduce more active exercise during dialysis.PMID:35582115 | PMC:PMC9095423 | DOI:10.1298/ptr.E10144

Effects of an additional resistance training intervention in hemodialysis patients performing long-term ergometer exercise during dialysis
Conclusion] The addition of the resistance training to long-term supine ergometer exercisers improved walking endurance. When supine ergometer exercise alone does not change physical function, the additional use of resistance training subsequently may have a positive effect on walking endurance.PMID:35221513 | PMC:PMC8860687 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.34.110

Comparison of muscle strength between hemodialysis patients and non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease
Conclusion] Hemodialysis treatment was an independent risk factor for muscle weakness. Regular monitoring of grip strength may facilitate better management with physical therapy in hemodialysis patients.PMID:34658517 | PMC:PMC8516613 | DOI:10.1589/jpts.33.742
