Effect of exercise on kidney-relevant biomarkers in the general population: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Physical activity (PA) has been generally recognised as beneficial for health. The effect of a change in PA on kidney biomarkers in healthy individuals without kidney disease remains unclear. This manuscript synthesised the evidence of the association of changes in PA with kidney biomarkers in the general population free from kidney disease.

Design

Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Data sources

Embase, PubMed, MEDLINE and Web of Science databases were searched from inception to 12 March 2023.

Eligibility criteria for selecting studies

Studies of longitudinal or interventional design were selected initially. The following studies were excluded: (1) case-control studies, (2) studies where PA was measured at a single time point, (3) populations with k
