Filter by:Nondipping blood pressure (BP) pattern is a potential independent risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD). Whether bedtime administration of potassium losartan has benefit for anti-hypertension and the prognosis of CKD patients is not clear. Patients with nondipping BP pattern or dipping BP pattern were enrolled in this study, and the patients with nondipping BP pattern were randomly divided into two groups and treated with bedtime or awakening doses of potassium losartan.
Evaluation of Renastep is a 28-day long, prospective nutritional study that will recruit 15 patients aged between 3 and 18 years of age with Chronic Kidney Disease. Participants will incorporate Renastep into their renal specific diet, during which time they will record gastrointestinal symptoms, adherence to recommended intakes and thoughts on its palatability. A Baseline CRF completed by the Investigator at the start of the trial will record demographic information, GI history and the most recent renal bio-marker results. Bio-marker results recorded as part of routine care over the course of the study will be captured in the End of Study CRF. The study is designed to generate acceptability data that will be used to support an application to the Advisory Committee on Borderline Substances for Renastep to be reimbursable on prescription within the NHS.
Safety, Efficacy, PK and PD of CTAP101 (calcifediol) ER Capsules for SHPT in HD Patients VDI
The proposed research is clinical study evaluating the therapeutic benefits of resveratrol on vascular function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The study aims to establish that resveratrol will improve endothelial function and functional performance by reducing oxidative stress and in conjunction with lowering markers of inflammation and oxidative stress.
The aim of this study is to investigate effects of sevelamer carbonate on reducing TMAO in stage 3b-4 CKD (pre-dialysis) patients. The study will also investigate the safety and tolerability of sevelamer carbonate in study population and the effects of sevelamer carbonate on serum p-cresyl sulfate, indoxyl sulfate, LDL-C and uric acid.
Faced with limited access to preventative health care services, Indigenous people living in rural and remote communities are at a higher risk of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and kidney failure, when compared to the general population. The goal of this project is to perform point-of-care testing for CKD and its risk factors, including diabetes and high blood pressure, for individuals residing in rural and remote Indigenous communities across the Canadian provinces of Manitoba, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Ontario. In addition to providing individuals with information about their risk of developing CKD, as well as providing tailored treatment plans, this study will help provide evidence to develop a permanent CKD surveillance system in all Indigenous communities across Canada, consequently decreasing the burden of CKD and kidney failure in these communities.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate the effect of empagliflozin on kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death versus placebo on top of standard of care in patients with pre-existing chronic kidney disease. After completion of the interventional part of the study (primary study completion) a subset of participants will be followed up in a post-trial observational (non-interventional) manner for cardio-renal outcomes (estimated study completion date).
In Egypt, the prevalence of end stage renal disease in pediatric population has never been estimated on a national scale. The patients at end stage renal disease encounter oral and dental problems that emphasize regular and careful screening . In Egypt, the prevalence of oral findings is not studied so we conduct this study to study the oral findings among a group of pediatric patients at end stage renal disease either on haemodialysis or after kidney transplantation.
An Open-Label, Repeated-Dose Safety, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Study of Oral CTAP101 Capsules, Immediate- Release (IR) Calcifediol, High-Dose Cholecalciferol, and Paricalcitol Plus Low-Dose Cholecalciferol in Patients with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, Stage 3 or 4 Chronic Kidney Disease and Vitamin D Insufficiency
It is estimated that over 25% of the world's population had hypertension in the year 2000 and that this proportion will reach 30% in the year 2025. With the introduction of the 2017 Guideline for High Blood Pressure in Adults from the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association Task Force on Clinical Practice Guidelines, the definition of hypertension became broader and as a result the prevalence is expected to further increase. On the other hand, it is estimated that around 10% of the world's population is affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD) with hypertension being both cause and complication of CKD. It is obvious that hypertension and CKD are interconnected and are both major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Hypertension results in increased CVD risk both directly, as an independent factor, and indirectly via its negative impact on renal function. In fact, the deterioration of the renal function is proportional to the degree of hypertension. On the other hand, the more advanced the CKD is, the more challenging the management of hypertension becomes, as patients with CKD present altered patterns of blood pressure (BP) during the day and, additionally, the prevalence of white coat and masked hypertension is significantly higher in this group of patients. To date, hypertensive patients are treated according to the BP recordings that are obtained in the office (OBP) during routine patient visits, which leads to inaccurate estimates of the true burden of hypertension and also affects the efficacy of the therapeutic intervention. It has been suggested that self measured BP (HBP) is a more accurate estimate of the patients' daytime BP compared to the conventional office BP measurements. This has been already confirmed in studies regarding the general population and it has been suggested that the same applies to the patients with CKD. This study aims to check the validity of this hypothesis by comparing the effect of the HBP - guided management versus the conventional OBP - guided management on the 24 hour ambulatory BP monitoring of patients with uncontrolled hypertension and CKD stage 3 and 4.
