This research study is looking at muscle loss (called sarcopenia) in people who have chronic kidney disease. Researchers want to understand how often this happens, what causes it, and how it affects patients' health and quality of life. The study will enroll about 1,000 people with kidney disease to learn more about these connections.
Muscle loss is a common and serious problem in kidney disease patients that can lead to falls, broken bones, disability, and worse health outcomes. Right now, doctors don't fully understand why some kidney disease patients lose muscle or how to best prevent it. This research aims to fill that gap so doctors can better help their patients stay stronger and healthier.

As a participant, you would visit the hospital for physical assessments to measure your muscle mass, strength, and physical function. The researchers will also review your medical records and ask you questions about your health history. The study collects this information to identify patterns in who develops muscle loss and how it affects outcomes—there is no medication being tested or given in this study.
