Filter by:Skeletal muscle metabolic health is critical for mobility and an underrecognized target of metabolic acidosis in chronic kidney disease. Impaired muscle mitochondrial metabolism underlies poor physical endurance increasing the risk of mobility disability. The proposed project will use precise in vivo tools to study the pathophysiology of poor physical endurance in a clinical trial treating metabolic acidosis among persons living with chronic kidney disease.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality. In particular children with early-onset CKD have a lifelong increased risk to suffer from cardiovascular disease (CVD). Therefore, children with CKD deserve our attention. The immune system in children with CKD is disturbed, exhibiting pro-inflammatory features. Therefore, we aim to learn more about the characteristics of the immune system in early-onset CKD. In this project PBMC of pediatric CKD patients and age-matched healthy controls will be analysed and compared using CITE-Seq as a multimodal scRNAseq phenotyping method. All patients will be clinically characterized to integrate cardiovascular and immunological data.
In this study, the investigators will be looking at results of tests of memory and thinking and daily activities in a group of people without known chronic kidney disease (CKD) , and a group of CKD patients, and follow the participants for up to four more years, including after the participants start dialysis or receive a transplant. The investigators are doing this study to compare how often memory loss, confusion and difficulty with daily activities occur in those without and those with CKD. Additionally, the investigators are doing this study to identify risk factors for memory and thinking problems in CKD patients. The information received through the NDI will be utilized to help track our study population and help provide useful information regarding cause of death of those in our study.
This Phase 3, randomized, Double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm, parallel-group, multicenter study with randomized withdrawal will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and durability of KBP-5074 in adult participants who have stage 3b/4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration [CKD-EPI] formula [eGFR {EPI}] ≥15 to ≤44 mL/min/1.73 m^2) and uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 and <180 mm Hg and taking 2 or more antihypertensive medications.
In patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), there is a buildup of nitrogenous uremic toxins of gut microbiome origin, which can contribute to uremic symptoms, reduced quality of life, and earlier progression to dialysis. The goal of this project is to investigate whether the consumption of resistant potato starch (RPS) as an adjunctive therapy to current standard of CKD care will reduce uremic toxins and symptoms by altering the gut microbiota in patients with CKD.
Effects of functional inspiratory muscle training by telerehabilitation on respiratory and peripheral functions, functional capacity, diaphragm thickness and mobility, posture, quality of life, cognitive function, fatigue, physical activity, endothelial function and aortic stiffness in patients with chronic kidney disease will be investigated.
Arterial calcifications start at early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and are associated to cardiovascular mortality. Pyrophosphate (PPi) is an endogenous compound, which stops the mineralization process in bones and is expected to act at ectopic sites. In uremic rats, low PPi plasma levels are associated with high calcium content in the aorta and peritoneal administration of PPi blocks this process. People on maintenance dialysis or kidney transplant recipients have low plasma levels of PPi and show high scores of arterial calcification. The purpose is to determine the role of low PPi in the development of arterial calcifications in patients with CKD stage 3 or 4. To that aim, 252 patients with eGFR between 59 et 20 ml/min/1,73 m2 will be recruited and will be examined at baseline and three years later.
Chronic renal failure is a chronic and progressive disease with a poor prognosis. In recent years, it can be found in many literature reports that traditional Chinese medicine therapy has obvious effects on early and mid-term chronic renal failure. It can not only improve clinical symptoms, but also block or delay the process of renal failure. It is relatively rare that compounds such as compounds. The side effects of drugs may be used in combination with compound drugs to improve clinical side effects and help patients improve their quality of life to complete the treatment course. It can provide clinicians with another choice in treatment. A previous study confirmed that the use of Eefooton oral solution of Chinese herbal medicine concentrate has a significant protective effect on the kidneys that have not undergone hemodialysis. Eefooton is extracted from Rhodiola, Huang Qi, American Ginseng, Dang Ginseng, and Ligustrum lucidum by biotechnology. It has immunomodulatory effects, anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory effects, and regulates calcium metabolism. The purpose of this clinical observation and research is to evaluate the eGFR changes in the renal function of patients with chronic kidney disease with the combination of Eefooton oral solution and commonly used chemical drugs.
The studies included the effect of chronic kidney disease advancement on the accumulation of oxidative stress markers in plasma. In patients with end-stage renal disease, the effect of replacement therapy was also assessed. Therefore, the patient with chronic kidney disease was evaluated divided into three groups (chronic kidney disease at stage G3b-G4, peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis). In addition, changes in the interrelationship between oxidative modifications, carbonyl and nitrogen stress, and the carbamylation resulting from the progression of kidney disease have been taken into account. This issue is related to the assessment of whether the protein modification types differentiate patients depending on the stage of chronic kidney disease and the method of renal replacement therapy. Protein modifications associated with oxidative stress are a part of the complications resulting from chronic kidney diseases, such as malnutrition, chronic inflammation, dyslipidemia, iron disorder, and calcium and phosphate disorders. Also, diseases of atherosclerosis aetiology are much higher frequency in patients with chronic kidney disease than in those with normal kidney function. Therefore, in the studies presented here, particular attention was paid to the effect of oxidative stress on chronic kidney disease complications in the aspect of cardiovascular damage. The specificity of atherosclerosis in patients with chronic kidney disease was evaluated by comparing groups of this type of patients with patients with ischemic heart diseases and normal renal function.
