ABSTRACT: Older adults with preclinical cognitive impairment can have chronic conditions and lifestyle factors that influence health. Sedentary behavior is common in older adults with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Fragmentation index was different (p < 0.05), with a lower fragmentation index found in t
