“Mechanisms of Muscle Blood Flow Dysregulation and Exercise Intolerance in Chronic Kidney Disease”
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) experience fatigue and exercise intolerance. Increased oxidative stress in CKD may be a contributing factor. The role of impaired muscle blood flow regulation has not been fully explored. The investigators hypothesize that functional sympatholysis is exaggerated in CKD and this is associated with increased oxidative stress. The investigators also hypothesize that exercise training will improve functional sympatholysis and oxidative stress
