Abstract

Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment is important for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, few studies have examined factors related to HRQoL, such as physical function, in older patients with predialysis CKD. This study evaluated the relationship between physical function, renal function, and nutritional status on the HRQoL in this patient group.
