Brief Summary: Physical activity PA is essential for the prevention and treatment of chronic conditions Despite its benefits global physical inactivity is prevalent contributing to chronic diseases and premature mortality For patients with chronic kidney disease CKD and rheumatoid arthritis RA PA is particularly beneficial as it improves endothelial health reduces cardiovascular risk diminishes inflammation and enhances quality of life Given the chronic inflammation and immune system dysregulation in CKD and RA PA may mitigate these effects and improve patient outcomes The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of a personalized aerobic exercise program on cardiovascular risk in patients with CKD or RA The secondary objectives are to assess the effects on inflammation and immunosenescence investigate the relationship between inflammation immunosenescence and various health outcomes compare the impacts of chronic PA and PA guidance on cardiovascular risk disease activity lifestyle habits cognitive functions and quality of life

This study presents an interventional design A total of 105 subjects are expected to participate in this study including 45 CKD patients and 45 RA patients Participants will be stratified by PA level and cardiovascular risk SCORE 2 scale and then randomized into three groups Control Group 15 CKD and 15 RA patients Therapeutic Education Group 15 CKD and 15 RA patients and Experimental Group 15 CKD and 15 RA patients

The inclusion criteria are age 50 years diagnosed with CKD or RA glomerular filtration rate between 45 and 29 mlmin173 m² for CKD DAS-28 score 26 for RA medical clearance for PA informed consent and affiliation with French social security The exclusion criteria are unstable corticosteroid therapy or 10 mg prednisoneday uncontrolled hypertension pregnancy cognitive impairment preventing adherence to the program inability to perform PA legal incapacity or anticipated poor cooperation lack of health insurance and participation in an incompatible study

The primary efficacy criterion of this study is changes in endothelial function macrovascular arterial stiffness and the secondary efficacy criteria are endothelial function microvascular hyperemia test levels of inflammation and immunity blood tests physical activity levels and quality of life questionnaires disease-related functional impairment disease activity and cognitive function

Patient screening will begin with the identification of eligible patients in the Nephrology and Rheumatology departments Day 0 will be the selection visit for participant information and consent A week after Day 0 the inclusion visit and initial assessment arterial stiffness endothelial function disease impact and blood markers for immunosenescence and inflammation blood pressure heart rate PA level quality of life and cognitive functions will be conducted for all patients Next only the patients in the experimental group will carry out a 47-minute cycling intermittent exercise session perceived exertion assessment and post-exercise reassessment They will redo the assessments after the exercise They will have another 16 sessions of supervised exercise by a health professional and a final session identical to the first for reassessment Patients in the physical activity guidance group will not undertake a physical exercise program but will receive one call per week to discuss the physical activities performed and get answers to their questions on the subject The control group will continue with their usual lifestyle habits
Detailed Description: To address the primary objective arterial stiffness in the experimental group will be analyzed and compared with the control group and the physical activity orientation group To address the secondary objectives various variables related to quality of life cognitive functions and disease activity will be compared between different patient groups The levels of inflammation and immunosenescence and the relationship between these two dimensions will be analyzed before and after the exercise program in the experimental group of RA and CKD patients with patients serving as their own controls

The first contact with CKD patients will be in the Nephrology Department and for RA patients in the Rheumatology Department during their regular medical visits Initially investigators will screen potential patients for participation The screening process involves a thorough evaluation of medical characteristics health history and other pre-established criteria to identify subjects who meet the specific inclusion criteria of this study

The evaluations described in the initial assessment will be conducted and all enrolled subjects will undergo a resting ECG with the investigator recording data for each subject Patient treatments will not be interrupted during the entire protocol period All patients will be evaluated twice once during the inclusion visit and again after 6 weeks

During the inclusion visit the patient will complete questionnaires then rest in a lying position for 10 minutes An initial evaluation lasting about 10 minutes will be conducted in a lying position including measurements of blood pressure heart rate reactive hyperemia to evaluate endothelial function and pulse wave velocity PWV The total duration will be 25 minutes After then for control group patients and physical activity orientation group patients the session ends here

For experimental group patients the patient will then perform physical activity on a cycle ergometer for 47 minutes The same assessments will be conducted at the end of the session For invasive measures venous blood samples will be taken from the elbow crease by a clinical research nurse A total of 2 dry tubes of 5 ml and 2 EDTA purple tubes of 5 ml will be collected at the beginning and end of the rehabilitation protocol 6 weeks totaling 40 ml For experimental groups an additional blood sample will be taken during follow-up 6 weeks after the end of the rehabilitation program totaling 60 ml for these groups

Endothelial function will be assessed by measuring pulse wave velocity and reactive hyperemia Arterial compliance central and peripheral will be assessed by measuring the pulse wave velocity on the carotid-femoral and carotid-radial segments respectively using the Complior Complior SP Artech Medical Pantin France Reactive hyperemia will be assessed with ENDOPAT Itamar Medical Caesarea Israel which quantifies peripheral vasodilatory response non-invasively via electronic finger cuffs following blood flow occlusion

Hemodynamic parameters will be evaluated by measuring heart rate and blood pressure with the Finapres during assessments Heart rate monitoring during cycling in experimental groups will use the Polar A300 heart rate monitor Blood pressure will be measured before and after exercise with the Omron

The interventions during the 6 weeks for the experimental group - exercise sessions will be conducted in the nephrology or rheumatology departments supervised by an adapted physical activity professional scheduled for three weekly 47-minute sessions over 6 weeks 18 sessions Exercise intensity will be adjusted based on individual heart rate reserve starting at 40 and progressing to 70 by the final session Each session includes a warm-up main exercise phase and active recovery

The interventions during the 6 weeks for the PA orientation group - Every week for around ten minutes patients in the PA orientation group will be contacted by telephone The main objective of this exchange is to provide targeted advice on physical activity its role its objectives as well as its different ways of carrying it out The second objective is to provide each week a personalized objective for each patient which can evolve over the weeks in order to increase levels of physical activity as far as possible Call Procedure are establishing a diagnosis carried out using questionnaires distributed beforehand level of physical activity quality of life contribution of advice and explanation around physical activity The evaluator adapted physical activity teacher will provide knowledge about PA its roles and objectives recommendations and different ways of practice lifestyle exchange personalized An exchange between the professional and the patient to understand the patients lifestyle habits setting a therapeutic objective Propose an objective around physical activity based on the patients needs and lifestyle and answer patient questions Reflective listening and open-ended questions will facilitate the exchange
