Filter by:This randomized placebo controlled double blind parallel clinical study will be conducted on 44 non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Clinical Study Evaluating the Role of Coenzyme Q10 as Adjuvant Therapy to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor on Blood Pressure, Proteinuria and Bone Metabolism in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. Patients will be recruited from, Internal Medicine Department, Nephrology Unit, Alexandria Main University Hospital, Egypt. Patients with albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g, with serum Potassium < 5 mEq/L and newly diagnosed patients with hypertension. The study duration will be 6 months. The patients will be randomized using stratified random block method into two groups. Group 1: Control group Non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b). Patients will be treated with ramipril 10 mg/day and a placebo match Coenzyme Q10 capsules once per day.The dose of ramipril may be modified according to blood pressure control. Group 2: Coenzyme Q10 Non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Patients will be treated with ramipril 10 mg/day and Coenzyme Q10 capsules (CoQ10) 200 mg/day. The dose of ramipril may be modified according to blood pressure control. Participants will be followed-up by weekly telephone calls and monthly direct meetings to assess their adherence for 6 months.
The goal of this observational study is to assess validity and reliability of Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire. The main questions it mains to answer are: What is the level of physical activity in hemodialysis patients? Is Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire, Valid to assess physical activity levels of dialysis patients? Is Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire, reliable? Participants will answer 3 questionnaires and will do some functional tests.
The aim of this study is to 1. Evaluate frequency of H. pylori infection in patients with CKD. 2. Description the gastroduodenal lesions found in patients with chronic kidney disease and correlate it to H.pylori infection.
In the study Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Managing Obesity in People with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) the investigators will test whether CBT programme is effective for weight loss and weight maintenance after the treatment programme in patients with obesity, chronic kidney disease and proteinuria. The investigators will test whether subjects randomised to the intervention group and receiving cognitive behavioural therapy can achieve greater weight loss and proteinuria reduction in chronic kidney disease than subjects randomised to the control group and not receiving cognitive behavioural therapy. Both groups of subjects will be counselled by a dietician to improve their diet and reduce excess weight and to kinesiologist for advice on physical activity.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of up to two gelatin-hydrogel formulation REACT injections given 3 to 6 months apart and delivered percutaneously into same kidney on renal function in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether potassium citrate improves skeletal health in adults and children with chronic kidney disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To evaluate effects of potassium citrate treatment on bone quality and strength. - To evaluate mechanism(s) underlying the effects of potassium citrate on skeletal health. Participants will be asked to: - provide blood, urine and answer questions about health and diet three times during an 8 months period - undergo advanced bone imaging with high resolution-peripheral quantitative CT scan twice during 8 months - take study pills for 4-6 weeks at the beginning of the study to ensure safety - take either potassium citrate or placebo for 6 months during the blinded portion of the study Researchers will compare the bone imaging between the potassium citrate and the placebo groups at the end of the study.
This is a Phase I, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and immunogenicity of a 10 mg/kg dose of AD-214 when administered to healthy volunteers (HVs) (Part A) or patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) or chronic kidney disease (CKD) (Part B). The study will be performed in Australia at up to two clinical sites.
Patients with Chronic kidney disease are most vulnerable to contrast induced nephropathy after Percutaneous coronary intervention, intravascular ultrasound guidance can be used to safely guide the procedure to reduce the contrast usage, this randomized trial is design to test the hypothesis that IVUS based ultra-low contrast PCI is feasible and can reduce the contrast induced nephropathy.
This project is aimed to analyze the current models and to design innovative strategies to improve quality of care and optimise resource utilization of telemedicine (TM) in home-based management for the global care of patients with chronic kidney diseases (CKD). The main focus is on the prevention of complications, recurrence of unstabilization and optimal therapy for the global management of chronic pts through TM and e-Health. Reducing avoidable/unnecessary hospitalisation of pts with chronic conditions, through the effective implementation of a health care network, offering integrated care programs and applying chronic disease management models, should ultimately contribute to the improved efficiency of health systems.
To evaluate the effects of finerenone on vascular stiffness and cardiorenal biomarkers in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
