Exercise to prevent memory loss in advanced kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a physical exercise program can prevent further memory and thinking decline in people with advanced kidney disease. It might help you keep your mental sharpness while managing kidney issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have advanced kidney disease (stage 4 or 5).
- You have noticeable memory or thinking problems (mild cognitive impairment).
- You do not have severe heart problems or other conditions that make exercise unsafe.
- Your life expectancy is more than 6 months.
- Your anemia (low blood count) is not severe (hemoglobin above 9).

This trial tests whether a specific exercise program can improve physical and mental decline (frailty) in people with mild cognitive impairment. If you join, you may get a structured exercise plan that could help your thinking and physical strength.
This study tests whether combining a daily creatine supplement with a 26-week resistance training program can improve memory and thinking in older adults who have mild cognitive impairment. If you qualify, you'll get free supervision and supplements while contributing to research that could help many people.
This study tests whether a healthy lifestyle program can help people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which is slight memory and thinking decline. It focuses on diet, exercise, and other daily habits to see if they can slow down or improve memory issues.
This study tests whether two simple exercise programs—one using gentle movements (Baduanjin) and one using stretchy bands—help improve visual working memory (the ability to remember what you see) in older adults with mild memory problems. You'll be asked to do one of these exercises regularly, and we'll see if your memory gets better.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise plan can improve executive thinking (like planning and task control) in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. Researchers also look for brain changes using an MRI.
This study tests whether a mix of physical exercise and computer brain training can improve working memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It may help by strengthening memory skills and supporting brain health through supervised activity and computer-based practice.
