Association of kidney function with physical performance: the Maastricht study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Kidney failure has been associated with decreased physical capacity, although evidence regarding the physical performance of individuals with earlier stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains limited.

Methods

Cross-sectional data were derived from the prospective, population-based Maastricht Study. Multivariate linear regression models were fitted to assess the association of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria categories with physical performance test outcomes.

Results

Overall, 7396 participants were included. Compared to eGFR 60-90 ml/min/1.73 m², values < 60 ml/min/1.73 m² were associated with significantly shorter 6-min walk distance (β: - 13.04 m, 95% confidence intervals-CI - 19.95; - 6.13), worse tim
