Filter by:Randomized placebo-controlled double-blind cross-over N=1 trial in adult male and female patients with UACR >20 mg/g (2.26 mg/mmol) with type 2 diabetes treated in primary or secondary healthcare. The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the individual response to the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). Secondary objectives are to determine the individual response to dapagliflozin in systolic blood pressure, body weight, eGFR, and fasting plasma glucose. Participants will collect all study data in the comfort of their own environments: - First-morning void urine samples - Capillary blood samples - Blood pressure - Body weight Participants will be randomly assigned to a cross-over study consisting of two periods of 1-week treatment with dapagliflozin 10 mg/day and two periods of 1-week treatment with placebo in random order with a 1-week wash-out period between every treatment period to avoid cross-over effects.
To demonstrate safety and performance of AquaPass System for improving fluid balance in hemo-dialysis patients, by increasing fluid loss via the skin.
It has been shown that excretion of sodium and water through the skin in the form of sweat represents a regulatory mechanism of electrolyte- and fluid balance. Since patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) exhibit increased skin sodium content, we investigated the feasibility of sweat testing as a novel experimental tool to a more complete assessment of fluid- and sodium homeostasis. In this cross-sectional feasibility study, we applied pilocarpine iontophoresis to induce sweat testing in 58 patients across various stages of CKD including patients after kidney transplantation as well as a healthy control cohort (n=6) to investigate possible effects of CKD and transplantation status on sweat rate and sodium concentration. Due to non-linear relationships, we modeled our data using polynomial regression. Decline of kidney function showed a significant association with lower sweat rates: adj R²= 0.2278, F(2, 61) = 10.29, p = 0.000141. Sweat sodium concentrations were increased in moderate CKD, however this effect was lost in end stage renal disease: adj R² = 0.3701, F(4, 59) = 10.26, p = 2.261e-06. We observed higher sweat weight in males compared to females. Diagnostic sweat analysis represents an innovative and promising noninvasive option for more thorough investigation of sodium- and fluid homeostasis in CKD patients. Lower sweat rates and higher sweat sodium concentrations represent a unique feature of CKD patients with potential therapeutic implications.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an educational program emphasizing a whole food plant based diet favorably impacts blood pressure while not significantly increasing blood potassium levels, by comparing a group of patients receiving the educational program with a control group of patients receiving no specific education.
This study investigates the association between post-reperfusion (neohepatic) ALBI scores and post-LT renal outcomes in living-donor LT (LDLT) recipients.
Chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients are with in high-risk patients in coronary arterial diseases and increasing number of coronary angiography and coronary interventional procedures have been performed in these population. As well as the risk factors have been identified by many studies preventive measures are lacking. In our study we found that SGLT2 inhibitors are beneficial in terms of reducing contrast media induced acute kidney injury in both diabetic and CKD patients.This is one of the leading studies in the literature pointing that SGLT2 inhibitors may have a potentially beneficial role in reducing or preventing the development of PC-AKI.
Patients in the Intensive Cardiovascular Care Unit (ICCU) often present with cardiovascular disease (CVD) issues accompanied by various non-cardiovascular conditions. However, a widely applicable scoring system to predict patient outcomes in the ICCU is lacking. Therefore, developing and validating scores for predicting ICCU patient outcomes are warranted. The aims of the IndONEsia ICCU (One ICCU) registry include developing an epidemiological registry of ICCU patients and establishing a multicentre research network to analyse patient outcomes.This nationwide multicenter cohort will capture data from patients receiving cardiovascular critical care treatment in 10 Indonesian hospitals with ICCU facilities. Recorded data will encompass demographic characteristics, physical examination findings at hospital and ICCU admission, diagnoses at ICCU admission, therapy, intervention, complications on days 3 and 5 of in-ICCU care, in-hospital outcomes, and 30-day outcomes. The One ICCU is a large, prospective registry describing the care process and advancing clinical knowledge in ICCU patients. It will serve as an investigational platform for predicting the mortality of ICCU patients.
This study assesses the effectiveness of the seasonal flu vaccine in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) with and without Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), as well as in healthy individuals. Additionally, the study investigates the dynamics of cytokines, specifically IL-2 and IL-6, in the three groups following influenza vaccination. The findings from these studies will contribute to our understanding of the safety and efficacy of the influenza vaccine in T2DM and T2DM-CKD, shedding light on inflammation changes and informing future research on mitigation strategies.
The Stockholm CREAtinine Measurements (SCREAM) project is a healthcare utilization cohort including, at present, all adult residents in Stockholm between 2006 and 2021. The region of Stockholm had a population of 2.3 million citizens in 2021and provides universal healthcare with a single unified health-system. Administrative databases with complete information on socidemographic data, healthcare use, diagnoses and therapeutic/surgical procedures, and vital status were enriched with performed laboratory tests, dispensed prescriptions at Swedish pharmacies and validated kidney replacement therapy endpoints. Registries were linked and de-identified by the Swedish National Board of Welfare and are considered to have no or minimal loss to follow-up. Because the study utilized de-identified data, it was deemed not to require informed consent and was approved by the regional ethical review boards and the Swedish National Board of Welfare. For detailed description of available data and linked registers please consult: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35028991/
The overall objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of adding a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist compared with adding basal insulin for patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease, already treated with an sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor and not currently reaching target glycemic control. All sociodemographic information and clinical variables will be retrieved from the LMC Diabetes Registry.
