📍 Last month, we proudly participated in @ASNKidney's #KidneyWk 🇺🇸, sharing insights on the prevalence and factors associated with sarcopenia in our cohort.

🌟 A big shoutout to Dr. @heitorribeiros for representing our team and driving this important discussion! 💪🧠

😉In September, we participated in the XXXII Brazilian Congress of Nephrology in Salvador, Bahia, with two oral and one poster presentations.

🏆 We were honored to receive the Young Researcher Award from the

🧐 We examined the prevalence of sarcopenia using the EWGSOP2 and SDOC consensuses in 838 patients receiving hemodialysis. A weak agreement was found, highlighting the importance of a global and standardized conceptual definition.

📢 New research paper from our multicenter study published at the @NDTsocial

📷 We described reference values for handgrip strength, five times sit-to-stand, and 4-m gait speed in 1004 patients on hemodialysis from 19 dialysis centers in Brazil 🇧🇷

🗓️ Patients will be then followed-up for 12 months and sarcopenia will be reassessed. Additional 12 months of follow-up will be conducted for investigating adverse clinical outcomes (#falls, #ospitalization, and #mortality).

Hello everyone,

To date, we have included 240 HD patients in the SARC-HD study!!! 🥳🥳🥳

[SARC-HD @SARC_HD]

A month ago, during the XXXI Brazilian Congress of Nephrology, there was the first face-to-face meeting with some partners of the SARC-HD study.
