Non-Pharmacological Interventions to Improve Physical Function in Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease: A Network Meta-Analysis

It was found via network meta-analysis that combined resistance and aerobic exercise is the most effective intervention. Besides, if virtual reality or music is added to the training, there will be better results. Resistance exercise with blood flow restriction and whole-body vibration might be good alternative treatments for improving muscle strength. None of the interventions improved quality of life, suggesting a need for alternative interventions in this regard. The results of this study contribute evidence-based data to decision-making.
