Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is a cross-sectional study that wishes to investigate whether there is an increased incidence of sarcopenia in patients with chronic kidney disease compared to the Danish background population. A possible association between sarcopenia and fall, as well as the incidence of osteoporosis in patients with chronic kidney disease will also be described.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Sarcopenia is a condition diagnosed from different clinical findings such as low muscle mass, low muscle strength and possibly also poor physical performance. In the general population, the risk of fall and bone fracture increases, when sarcopenia is also present.

Sarcopenia is known to occur in patients with chronic kidney disease, but whether, and if so, how this differs from the incidence in patients without kidney disease has not previously been described.

Patients with chronic kidney disease have a 3 times higher risk of bone fracture compared to the Danish background population, and they also have an increased risk of falls.

The association between sarcopenia, risk of falls and osteoporosis in patients with kidney disease is until now sparsely described, and because of this, the investigators want to explore this further in this cross-sectional study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Participants

This is a cross-sectional study involving approximately 150 patients. They undergo a physical examination, fill out a questionnaire, have blood samples drawn, undergo a Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) scan and different physical procedures to assess muscle strength and muscle function.

DXA

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Each participant will undergo one DXA scan

Muscle strength and function assessment

Intervention Type OTHER

Each patient will have their muscle strength and function assessed with the measurements of handgrip strength, 10 m gait speed and a 30 s sit-to-stand test. They will also fill out a questionnaire assessing Strength, Assistance in walking, Rise from a chair, Climb stairs, and Falls (SARC-F questionnaire).

Blood samples

Intervention Type OTHER

Each patient will undergo a physical examination and also deliver blood samples.
