Endothelial dysfunction occurs early in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with target organ damage, progression of renal injury, cardiovascular events, and mortality. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a relevant new, noninvasive method that assesses local tissue oxygenation and can provide valuable information about local oxygen consumption and blood flow. Using postocclusion reactive hyperemia, NIRS technology provides valuable information on skeletal muscle's oxidative capacity, microvascular function, and muscle oxygenation at rest and during exercise. With regard to cerebral oxygenation, NIRS noninvasively monitors alterations and assesses relative changes from baseline for oxygenated, deoxygenated, and total hemoglobin. Due to its ability to assess microvascular function, NIRS has been applied in various populations with impaired microvascular function, including patients with hypertension, diabetes, CAD, and end-stage kidney disease. However, there is no study up to date assessing muscle oxygenation and microvascular function measured via NIRS in patients with different stages of CKD. Hence, this study aims to examine possible differences in muscle and oxygenation at rest, exercise, and during an occlusion-reperfusion maneuver in CKD stages 2-4 with NIRS. In addition, this is the first study examining potential associations between micro-, macrovascular dysfunction and potentially impaired muscle and cerebral oxygenation in CKD patients.
Iron deficiency anemia is very common in CKD patients. Data about gastrointestinal lesions in Arab patients are insufficient.
Depersonalized multi-centered registry initiated to analyze dynamics of non-infectious diseases after SARS-CoV-2 infection in population of Eurasian adult patients.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), is characterized by accelerated development of atherosclerosis and advanced remodelling of vessels and the heart. It is associated with many factors, including inflammation, arterial hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocysteinemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and oxidative stress. Hypertension is one of the most critical risk factors for cardiovascular complications. It leads to the formation of structural changes in the vascular system: it impairs the activity of the endothelium, causes hypertrophy and remodelling of the vascular wall, reduces the susceptibility of the vessels and accelerates the development of atherosclerosis. This study aimed to identify the processes and their representative markers, the concentration of which in the serum may reflect the cardiovascular system status and can predict the increased mortality in HD patients.
Аn international, multicenter, non-interventional real-life clinical practice Register studying the Actual therapeutic patient population with Multifocal Atherosclerosis in the Russian Federation and Eurasian countries
This study aims to explore the effectiveness of experience learning program of eHealth care to improve the chronic patients' eHL in engaging with the eHealth care system on the indicators on eHealth literacy, patient health engagement, e-Health usage status among Chronic disease patients included type 2 diabetes patients, Chronic kidney disease, and Cardiovascular Diseases.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of mindfulness meditation on trait mindfulness, perceived stress, emotion regulation, and quality of life in end-stage renal disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. Method: An experimental repeated measures design was used among a sample of 74 end-stage renal disease patients undergoing hemodialysis at a dialysis center at Jahra hospital, Kuwait. The patients were randomly assigned to the experimental (n=37) and control groups (n=37). The experimental group participated in 30-minute mindfulness meditation sessions (three sessions a week for five weeks) held during their hemodialysis sessions. The dependent variables of both groups were measured at baseline, middle of intervention, and end of intervention using the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ), and Kidney Disease Quality of Life (KDQOL-36) questionnaire.
The aim of the study is to assess the impact of pharmacist led mobile application on adherence and efficacy of medication in chronic kidney disease patients
This study is a virtual, remote, decentralized pragmatic clinical trial comparing the efficacy of medically tailored meals alone or medically tailored meals with remote nutritional counseling compared with usual standard of care in adults with a targeted, nutrition-sensitive chronic medical condition (heart failure, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease).
