Reporter brief
Exercise during hemodialysis compared to standard care in a three-arm randomized trial.
What happened
A randomized controlled trial assigned hemodialysis patients to one of three groups: aerobic exercise using a cycle ergometer, resistance exercise using elastic bands, or standard care. After 6 months, researchers assessed physical function, body composition, quality of life, and dialysis-related outcomes. The abstract does not report the actual results, sample size, or effect sizes.
