Randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of aerobic exercise on visceral fat in overweight chronic kidney disease patients
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of obesity has markedly increased in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Studies on the impact of exercise focusing on obese CKD patients are scarce. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise performed either in an exercise centre or at home on visceral fat in overweight non-dialysed CKD patients. METHODS: Twenty-seven sedentary men (52.1 ± 9.5 years, body mass index 30.4 ± 3.8 kg/m(2), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 27.5 ± 11.6 mL/min) were randomly assigned to a centre-based exercise group (n = 10), home-based exercise group (n = 8) or control group (n = 9). The aerobic training was prescribed according to ventilatory threshold and performed three times per week during 12 weeks. Body composition was assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and the distribution of abdominal fat by computed tomography. RESULTS: In the centre-based group, visceral fat and waist circumference decreased 6.4 ± 6.4 mm (P < 0.01) and 2.0 ± 2.3 cm (P = 0.03) and leg lean mass increased 0.5 ± 0.4 kg (P < 0.01). No significant changes were observed in the home-based group. Visceral fat increased 5.0 ± 4.4 mm in the control group (P = 0.01). In relation to the control, a group-by-time interaction was significant for visceral fat and waist circumference for both exercise groups and for leg lean mass for the centre-based group. Mean blood pressure decreased in both exercise groups (centre-based 13%, P < 0.01 and home-based 10%, P = 0.03) and eGFR increased 3.6 ± 4.6 mL/min (P = 0.03) in the centre-based group. These parameters remained unchanged in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Centre-based aerobic exercise is an effective approach to reduce visceral fat besides promoting relevant clinical benefits in male overweight CKD patients.

TL;DR
In a 12-week randomized controlled trial of 27 sedentary overweight non-dialysed CKD men, centre-based aerobic exercise reduced visceral fat and waist circumference and increased leg lean mass, whereas the control group gained visceral fat. Home-based exercise did not significantly change body composition within the group but appeared to prevent the visceral fat increase seen in controls.
Key findings
- Centre-based exercise decreased visceral fat by 6.4 ± 6.4 mm (P < 0.01) and waist circumference by 2.0 ± 2.3 cm (P = 0.03), and increased leg lean mass by 0.5 ± 0.4 kg (P < 0.01).
- Mean blood pressure decreased in both exercise groups (centre-based 13%, P < 0.01; home-based 10%, P = 0.03), and eGFR increased by 3.6 ± 4.6 mL/min (P = 0.03) in the centre-based group.
- The control group had a significant increase in visceral fat of 5.0 ± 4.4 mm (P = 0.01), with no significant change in waist circumference.
- No significant changes in body composition were observed within the home-based group, but the paper reports that home-based exercise prevented the increase in visceral fat seen in controls; physical capacity improved in both exercise groups.
Methods
- Prospective, randomized, controlled interventional trial of 12 weeks. Twenty-nine sedentary men with CKD stages 3 and 4 were recruited; 27 completed follow-up. Patients were randomized to aerobic exercise (n = 19) or control (n = 10); those in the exercise group chose centre-based (n = 10) or home-based (n = 9, with 8 completing) exercise.
- Aerobic training was prescribed according to ventilatory threshold and performed three times per week for 12 weeks, starting at 30 min with a 10-min increment every 4 weeks. Centre-based patients trained on a treadmill under supervision; home-based patients trained near home with a heart rate monitor, three initial supervised sessions, weekly telephone calls, and monthly visits.
- Body composition was assessed by DEXA and abdominal fat distribution by computed tomography; physical/functional capacity, blood pressure, and laboratory parameters were measured at baseline and 12 weeks. Analysis used three-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA for between-group comparisons and group-by-time interaction, repeated-measures ANOVA within groups, and χ² tests for proportions.
Limitations
- Stated in the paper: findings are limited to overweight non-dialysed CKD men and may not be extrapolated to the general CKD population.
- Evident from the text: the sample was small (27 completers; centre-based n = 10, home-based n = 8, control n = 9), and the centre-based versus home-based exercise mode was chosen by participants rather than randomized.
- Evident from the text: the intervention lasted only 12 weeks, and the authors note that more studies are needed to prove definite effectiveness of supervised home-based exercise.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Exercise mode was chosen, not randomly assigned
MajorThe abstract says patients were randomly assigned to three groups, but the methods say randomization was between exercise and control, after which exercise patients chose the centre-based or home-based mode.
“were randomly assigned to a centre-based exercise group (n = 10), home-based exercise group (n = 8) or control group (n = 9).”
“Patients were randomized to aerobic exercise group (n = 19) or control group (n = 10).Those assigned to the aerobic exercise group chose the exercise mode as centre-based (n = 10) or home-based (n = 9).”
Urinary sodium changed despite being described as unchanged
MinorThe results say the other laboratory parameters remained unchanged in the centre-based and control groups, but Table 1 reports a significant increase in urinary sodium in the centre-based group.
“The other laboratory parameters remained unchanged in both groups.”
“| Urinary sodium (mEq/24 h) | 224 (174-277) | 272 (212-310) | <0.01 | 171 (150-207) | 270 (183-285) | 0.41 | 180 (144-287) | 199 (168-252) | 0.83 | 0.30 | 0.54 | 0.90 |”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-25, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-25 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
