title: [Is there a place for the physical activity in the prevention of the fractures of chronic kidney disease patients?].
abstract: The risk of non-traumatic fractures is greatly increased in kidney disease patients and well demonstrated in dialysis patients. If osteoporosis plays a major role in the general population, in chronic kidney disease renal osteodystrophy is associated with neurological and muscular disorders, which probably worsen the risk. The decrease in physical activity is a factor contributing to the loss of bone mass and the initiation of a rehabilitation program improves the prognosis. Despite the association between chronic renal disease and sedentary lifestyle, the relationship between physical inactivity and bones in dialysis patients and the effect of increased activity programs, are not well documented in the literature.
