The selection of title and abstract was conducted using inclusion and exclusion criterias, which led to six relevant articles. The selected studies were critically appraised for its validity, importance and applicability. the administration of folic acid and vitamin B reduce homocysteine level among CKD patients. Despite homocysteine level reduction, all six studies reported similar findings that folic acid and vitamin B supplementation did not significantly reduce cardiovascular complication and mortality. treatment with folic acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 did not reduce cardiovascular complication and mortality among CKD patients.

TUG test was performed to evaluate basic functional mobility by measuring the time in seconds to stand from 46 cm height armchair, walk three meters, turn around, and return to full sitting in chair. Vitamin D serum concentration was measured by ELISA method. Calcium ion serum concentration that was measured by NOVA method, age and body mass index (BMI) were confounding variables. of forty-two elderly women who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, thirty subjects which proportional randomly assigned participated in this study. Mean (+SD) vitamin D serum concentration was 68.0 (21.1) nmol/L, with concentration < 50...
