Combined effect sizes were calculated using Review Manager Version 5.3. Eight articles met the inclusion criteria and in the effect size analysis. Results showed that resistance exercise improved the ability to function and increased muscle strength, improved body composition and quality of life in chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment.
 HIGHLIGHTS
