Filter by:Hyperphosphatemia is a common problem among patientens suffering from chronic kidney disease. Hyperphosphatemia is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. One of the treatments are through the diet, where patients are instructed ind reducing their daily intake of phosphate. But since phosphate exists in both organic and inorganic forms in the diet, this leads to several problems. Informations of the bioavability and furthermore the effect of plasma koncentrations of phosphate are lacking for both forms of phosphate.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD9977 in combination with dapagliflozin compared with dapagliflozin alone and to assess the dose-response relationship, dapagliflozin alone and 3 doses of AZD9977 combined with dapagliflozin on urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR). The study will be conducted in participants with heart failure (HF) with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF [below 60%]) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR [between ≥ 20 and ≤ 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2, with at least 20% of participants with eGFR ≥ 20 to <30 mL/min/1.73^2 and a maximum of 35% of participants with eGFR ≥ 45 mL/min/1.73 m^2]).
Treatment for Uremic Calciphylaxis Patients with Human Amniotic Mesenchymal Stem Cells
The visceral adiposity index (VAI) has been developed, an indicator for the metabolic function of VAT. Previous studies have confirmed the association between the VAI and CKD prevalence. In this study, we attempted to investigate the association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline and visceral adiposity.
The purpose of this study to test whether n-of-1 trial-guided clinical decision-making improves blood pressure control in hypertensive children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
The current study will investigate whether long term implementation of expanded hemodialysis (HDx) will effectively decrease serum levels of large uremic toxins and ameliorate progression of sarcopenia in patients with chronic kidney disease requiring hemodialysis.
Primary outcome is assessment of nutritional status of children with CKD. Secondary outcome is assessment STAMP screening tool for detection of malnutrition of CKD children.
Acute renal failure (ARF) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a frequent complication, with significant clinical consequences. History of chronic kidney disease and the use of a large amount of iodinated contrast for planning and procedure are among the main risk factors for the development of this complication. The present study aims to: (1) define the role of non-contrast imaging modalities in pre-procedure planning; (2) evaluate the feasibility and safety of a new TAVI technique without using iodinated contrast; (3) to determine the incidence of acute renal failure in patients with aortic stenosis and chronic kidney disease undergoing TAVI, using the new technique without contrast. The study will be divided into two stages. In the pilot phase, 25 consecutive patients with chronic kidney disease (stage ≥ 3a) will have the TAVI planning and procedure performed without the use of iodinated contrast, but with all the steps subjected to verification by the standard technique, to ensure the safety of the patient. The occurrence of the combined primary safety outcome composed of adverse clinical events within 30 days (defined by the VARC-2 criteria) in less than 20% of cases will be used to define the continuity of the study. In the second phase, 50 patients with chronic kidney disease stage ≥ 3b will be submitted to TAVI with the "zero contrast" technique. The primary outcome assessed at this stage of the study will be the incidence of AKI within 7 days after TAVI using the new technique in this high-risk population.
As Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) progresses normophosphatemia is maintained by increasing the per nephron urinary phosphorus excretion. Clinically, hyperphosphatemia is associated with high mortality, vascular calcification, endothelial dysfunction and progression of left ventricular hypertrophy. Currently the treatment of hyperphosphatemia is first being initiated in stage 5 and consists of dietetic guidance to avoid dietary phosphate and treatment with oral phosphate binders. However, studies have shown important side effects to phosphate binders in terms of progression of vascular calcifications. Therefore, it might be beneficial to start the dietetic treatment with a reduction of dietary phosphate earlier in the disease stage. The aim of this project is to develop a New Nordic Renal Diet (NNRD) for CKD patients' stage 3-4 and to examine the long-term effects in a period of 26-weeks. NNRD has a high content of vegetable foods, less animal products and more local food items with a lesser content of phosphorus.
This non-interventional, Phase IV, exploratory, cross-over, randomised, single-blind, active comparator-controlled study has been designed to measure the palatability and preference of Lokelma® versus Veltassa® versus S/CPS in patients with dialysis and non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hyperkalaemia (HK). The sponsor hypothesizes that palatability, in terms of taste, texture, smell, and mouthfeel, will score higher (better) for Lokelma when compared with Veltassa and S/CPS.
