Study Summary

Skeletal muscle metabolic health is critical for mobility and an underrecognized target of metabolic acidosis in chronic kidney disease. Impaired muscle mitochondrial metabolism underlies poor physical endurance increasing the risk of mobility disability. The proposed project will use precise in vivo tools to study the pathophysiology of poor physical endurance in a clinical trial treating metabolic acidosis among persons living with chronic kidney disease.

Primary Outcome

We will use 31P MRS to evaluate the concentration of phospho-creatine (PCr) and other phosphate-energy carrier molecules in limb muscles. After one minute of basal resting measurements, patients will be asked to perform two knee extensions every second against ankle weights 5-10% of the maximal voluntary contraction. The exercise protocol will last 60-90 seconds (a total of 60 knee extensions) followed by 6 minutes of rest. The intensity of the exercise decreases phosphocreatine (PCr) levels wit
