Abstract
Inhibition of renin activity has been logical step to interrupt the renin angiotensin aldosterone system which becomes the cornerstone to retard the progression of chronic kidney disease. Aim of this study was to investigate the influence of aerobic exercise on plasma renin in the chronic kidney disease patients with secondary hypertension. Forty chronic kidney disease obese patients were randomly assigned to two groups. Study group performed moderate intensity aerobic exercise as well as their medication. Control group received their medication. The mean values in both groups were: For Plasma renin level (0.82 ± 0.214) and (2.09 ± 0.468) respectively, for systolic blood pressure (152.1 ± 4.86) and (155.8 ± 5.16) mmHg respectively, for diastolic blood pressure (95 ± 3.81) and (102.6 ± 6.93) mmHg respectively and for 6-minute walk test speed (1.83 ± 0.07) and (1.68 ± 0.06) m/s respectively. There were significant differences between two groups in their Plasma renin level, blood pressure and 6-minute walk test speed after the study. It was concluded that moderate aerobic exercise resulted in improved kidney functions with chronic kidney disease patients as reducing plasma renin and improving the blood pressure with non-significant negative weak correlation between Plasma renin level and blood pressure and a significant moderate negative correlation between exercise improvement and plasma renin
