Abstract

Sarcopenia is an important problem and a high prevalence among patients with chronic kidney disease has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The main causes related to declining renal function comprise hormonal change and chronic inflammation. These contribute to loss of protein synthesis in the muscles and increases muscle fiber degradation. Definitions of sarcopenia involve low muscle strength and muscle quantity or quality leading to low physical performance. Diagnosis is defined by history taking, physical examination, imaging study for muscle cross-sectional area, determining appendicular skeletal muscle mass by DEXA and physical performance testing such as gait speed, grip strength and short physical performance battery. The main prevention and treatment strategies of sarcopenia in chronic kidney disease include increased exercise training, nutritional supplements, correction of metabolic acidosis, hormone replacement therapy, and antisarcopenic agents.
