Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of combined exercise on aortic atherosclerosis and FGF23 in male rats with chronic Kidney disease (CKD).
Methods: In this study, 20 male Wistar rats (mean weight 10 ± 250 g) were induced by NX5 / 6 method for chronic renal failure. After 2 weeks of recovery, they were randomly divided into two groups of control (n= 10) and combined training (n= 10) and performed a combined training protocol for 8 weeks. The combined training protocol consisted of two resistance training exercises on a ladder with 2 sets and 6 repetitions with percentages of body weight and aerobic exercise included 30 minutes of low-intensity treadmill activity. Data were analyzed using t-test. P < 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: The results showed that combined exercise reduced aortic atherosclerosis and decreased plaques, and FGF23 decreased significantly (
p = 0.001). Parathoromon hormone also significantly decreased (
p = 0.041) and calcium and phosphorus significantly decreased (
p = 0.004 and
p = 0.005, respectively).
Conclusion: Overall, the results showed that combined training could decrease FGF23, parathoromon hormone, calcium and phosphor on aortic atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease indices in chronic Kidney disease (CKD) patients.
