Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Endothelial Function

    Conduit artery endothelial function assessed by brachial artery flow mediated dilation; Microvascular endothelial function assessed by cutaneous vasodilation in response to local heating measured by microdialysis and laser Doppler flowmetry.

    Change from baseline at 12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (12)

  • Microvascular function

    Change from baseline at 12 weeks

  • Oxidative stress contribution to vascular dysfunction

    Change from baseline at 12 weeks

  • Endothelial cell oxidative stress

    Changes from baseline at 12 weeks

  • Plasma Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein

    Change from baseline at 12 weeks

  • F2-isoprostanes

    Change from baseline at 12 weeks

  • +7 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

CKD Aerobic Exercise Training

EXPERIMENTAL

Chronic Kidney Disease participants randomly allocated to the CKD Exercise arm will receive 12 weeks of Aerobic Exercise Training three times per week.

Other: Aerobic Exercise Training

CKD Control

NO INTERVENTION

Chronic Kidney Disease participants allocated to the the CKD Control arm will receive their standard routine care over a 12 week period.

Healthy Control

NO INTERVENTION

Healthy participants will act as comparators, they will undergo baseline testing only and will not receive an intervention.

Interventions

Supervised outpatient moderate to vigorous aerobic training at 60% - 85% heart rate reserve, carried out for 45 minutes, three times per week over a twelve week period.
