This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether magnetic stimulation—a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic energy applied to the skin—can help reduce back pain and help maintain muscle mass in people with end-stage kidney disease who are receiving dialysis. Back pain is a common problem for dialysis patients, and this study wants to see if this treatment might offer relief while also helping to preserve the muscle strength that kidney disease can affect.
People with end-stage kidney disease often suffer from back pain and lose muscle mass as part of their disease, which can affect their quality of life and physical function. This trial is exploring whether magnetic stimulation could be a helpful, non-invasive way to address both of these problems.

As a participant, you would receive magnetic stimulation treatment applied to your skin, most likely during visits to the hospital. The study involves a small group of 18 people total, and you would be assessed for changes in your back pain levels and muscle mass over the course of the trial. The exact schedule and duration of treatment would be explained to you in detail before you enroll.
