Exercise to lower heart risk in kidney disease or arthritis
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised aerobic exercise program can lower heart and blood vessel risk in people with kidney disease or rheumatoid arthritis. If you have one of these conditions and are not on dialysis, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests if combining exercise with blood flow restriction training (BFRT) is safe and helpful for healthy adults and people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It aims to improve strength and health without heavy weights.
This trial studies whether high-intensity physical exercise helps people with chronic kidney disease, including those on dialysis. It aims to improve health and physical function.
This study looks at whether a physical activity program can improve heart health in people over 50 who are either generally healthy or have chronic kidney disease or rheumatoid arthritis. You would be randomly assigned to either an exercise program or a control group, and researchers will track your progress over time.
This trial tests whether a combination of resistance exercise (strength training) and an anti-inflammatory diet can reduce pain, improve daily function, and enhance quality of life for people with rheumatoid arthritis. If you have mild or moderate disease activity and can safely exercise, this might help you manage symptoms.
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can help people with heart failure and mild-to-moderate kidney problems. It might improve both your heart and kidney function.
This study tests whether a regular exercise program can improve health and well-being for people on hemodialysis (kidney dialysis). If you join, you may get guidance on safe exercises that could help you feel stronger and more energetic.
