Exercise training in recent kidney transplant recipients — a protocol article previewing a randomized trial that tests a supervised aerobic-plus-resistance program and outlines physiological, immune, and graft-focused assessments readers will find inside.
Key Takeaways
- The EXTRA Trial randomizes kidney transplant recipients about six months post-transplant to 24 weeks of supervised combined aerobic and resistance training versus usual care.
- Primary outcomes are between-group changes in peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) and handgrip strength from baseline to end of intervention.
