Moderate-Vigorous Physical Activity and Clinical Outcomes in Adults with Nondialysis Chronic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT: The health benefits of physical activity (PA) are well known. However, the association between an adequate amount of moderate-vigorous PA (MVPA) and clinical outcomes has limited evidence in chronic kidney disease (CKD). We assessed PA using a self-administered questionnaire. The amount of MVPA was categorized into four groups: none, low, moderate, and high (0, <7.5, 7.5-14.9, and 15.0-29.9 metabolic equivalent-hours/week, respectively). We analyzed the association between the amount of MVPA and clinical outcomes. Among a total of 1909 adults with CKD, adults with MVPA showed various beneficial outcomes compared to those with no MVPA in a Kaplan-Meier curve followed over a median of 5.9 years. In multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models, a low and a moderate amount of MVPA was
