Physical Exercise in Patients with Severe Kidney Disease
George Kosmadakis,Alan Bevington,Alice C. Smith,Emma L. Clapp,João L. Viana,Nicolette C. Bishop,John Feehally +6 more
TL;DR: The mechanisms of exercise intolerance and debility in advanced CKD patients, the methods used for the estimation of functional capacity, the options currently available for exercise training, and their influence on the well-being of this group of patients are summarized.
Benefits of regular walking exercise in advanced pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease
George Kosmadakis,Stephen G. John,Emma L. Clapp,João L. Viana,Alice C. Smith,Alice C. Smith,Nicolette C. Bishop,Alan Bevington,Paul J. Owen,Christopher W. McIntyre,John Feehally,John Feehally +11 more
TL;DR: This study provides further support for the broad benefits of aerobic physical exercise in CKD by comparing the benefits of 6 months regular walking in pre-dialysis patients with CKD Stages 4 and 5 and sodium bicarbonate supplementation.

Inhibition of SNAT2 by Metabolic Acidosis Enhances Proteolysis in Skeletal Muscle
Kate Evans,Zeerak Nasim,Jeremy M. C. Brown,Emma L. Clapp,Amin Amin,Bin Yang,Terence P. Herbert,Alan Bevington +7 more
TL;DR: SNAT2 not only regulates mTOR but also regulates proteolysis through PI3K and provides a link among acidosis, insulin resistance, and protein wasting in skeletal muscle cells.

Exercise-induced biochemical modifications in muscle in chronic kidney disease: occult acidosis as a potential factor limiting the anabolic effect of exercise.
Emma L. Clapp,Alan Bevington +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence that exercise may result in a transient worsening of the pre-existing metabolic acidosis that occurs in patients with chronic kidney disease is summarized; a metabolic defect that may reverse the normal anabolic effects of exercise.

Exercise for children with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease.
TL;DR: The current knowledge regarding exercise capacity and muscle strength in children with CKD, the methods used to perform these assessments, and the possible causes of physical limitations are summarized.
