      Background Sarcopenia and poor physical function are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our aim was to investigate the relationships between muscle mass and measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and between muscle mass and strength and balance, respectively, in patients with CKD stages 3–5. Methods This is a baseline data analysis of a randomized controlled clinical trial. A total of 148 adult patients with an estimated GFR <30 mL/min/1.72 m2, not on renal replacement therapy, irrespective of the number of comorbidities were included from the Department of Nephrology, Skåne University Hospital, Lund, from 2011 to 2016. Body composition was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). GFR was measured by iohexol clearance. Balance was measured by functional reach and the Berg balance test and strength by handgrip strength and isometric quadriceps strength. Results Measured GFR ranged from 8 to 55 mL/min/1.73 m2. Lean mass (P < 0.05), fat mass (P < 0.05), appendicular skeletal muscle (P < 0.001) and appendicular skeletal muscle index (P < 0.05) were associated with GFR. Functional reach was associated with leg lean mass (P < 0.05) and the Berg balance test score was associated with trunk lean mass (P < 0.05). Handgrip strength was associated with arm lean mass (P < 0.001). Isometric quadriceps strength was associated with leg lean mass (P < 0.001). More men (44%) suffered from low muscle mass than women (22%), whereas more women (36%) suffered from low muscle strength than men (26%). However, when combining both, men (16%) suffered from sarcopenia to a greater extent than women (8%). Conclusions Among patients with CKD stages 3–5, loss of lean body mass, especially appendicular skeletal muscle, was significantly related to GFR decline. Two important markers of physical function, balance and strength, were significantly related to muscle mass. Moreover, men were more prone to sarcopenia than women during kidney function decline.
