The effect of eight weeks of isometric resistance training and branched-chain amino acids supplementation on muscle capacity and serum albumin levels in hemodyalisis patients
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of eight weeks of isometric training intradialytic and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) supplementation on muscle capacity and serum albumin in hemodialysis patients.the statistical population was the hemodialysis patients in Tehran and the sample population was patients in dialysis ward of Baqiyatallah hospital. In a clinical trial based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria 51 patients were randomly allocated into three groups: exercise group (EX) (n=17), exercise and BCAA group (EXBCAA) (n=17) and control group (n=17). In EXBCAA group, with the supervision of a nutritionist and a nephrologist 6 grams of BCAA were given to patients daily and training program was done 3 times a week for 2 months (24 sessions). Forearm endurance, leg raise endurance, and grip strength were measured for muscle capacity aspect and serum albumin levels were evaluated test before and post-intervention.
inclusion criteria: patients between ages of 18-80; patients who have undergone hemodialysis for a minimum of 6 months
