Filter by:This study is designed to determine the efficacy and safety of colchicine in patients with chronic kidney disease.
In this survey study, researchers want to find out more about how physicians are treating patients diagnosed with reduced kidney function (chronic kidney disease, CKD) and high blood sugar level (type 2 diabetes); what physicians know about the different treatment options available; and how they use this knowledge to treat their patients successfully. Additionally, researchers want to gather information about patient's awareness of their disease and which criteria they consider important for their treatment of the disease. The study will survey a total of 150 patients with type 2 diabetes: 50 patients with mild CKD; 50 patients with moderate CKD; and 50 patients with severe CKD. Patients eligible for this study can be male or female and should be at least 18 years old. In addition, a total of 150 physicians will be surveyed. Physicians eligible for this study may be general practitioners, endocrinologist, or nephrologists.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the dose-response efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD5718 in participants with proteinuric chronic kidney disease.
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has created a significant strain on health care resources across the world for managing critically ill patients. Emerging reports from China, South Korea and Italy have reported varying incidence of acute kidney (AKI) ranging from 5-15% with a mortality of 60-80% however there is no systematic assessment of the risk factors, recognition, course and outcomes in patients with and without kidney disease whose course is complicated by AKI1-4. Patients with underlying CKD, immunosuppressed patients with renal transplants and ESKD patients are at high risk for COVID-19 infection and there is limited information on the effect of COVID-19 on the course and outcomes of these patients. The requirement for renal support including IHD, CRRT and sorbent based therapies has been variable and has contributed to the intense pressure on the nephrology and critical care providers for delivering these therapies. As the COVID-19 pandemic expands in the USA and abroad, there is an intense need to understand the epidemiology of the disease and the resources needed for renal support to inform clinical management and public health interventions. In this study, the investigators aim to investigate health care facilities across the world (hospital wards, ICU, outpatient clinics, nursing homes, healthcare centers) to draw a global picture of incidence, risk factors, resources available for treatment and prognosis of acute and chronic kidney disease in patient with COVID 19 confirmed infection. The aim is to identify trends in patients with acute and chronic kidney disease, determine its incidence, treatment and outcomes in different settings across the world. This information will be used to develop and implement educational tools and resources to prevent deaths from AKI and progression of CKD in this and following pandemics.
Fasting mimetic diet (FMD) showed positive effects on cardiovascular risks. Purpose of the trial is to evaluate FMD effects on patients affected by chronic kidney disease (CKD), through the stimulation of kidney stem cells and improving cardiovascular and metabolic status. From April 2018, the investigators enrolled 13 patients (7 male) with an history of primary glomerulonephritis (GMN) and an eGFR between 60 ml/min and 30 ml/min. Exclusion criteria are: age <18 y.o., age> 65 y.o., secondary GMN, severe heart failure (NYHA IV),ongoing infectious diseases, ongoing neoplasia, hepatic diseases, COPD, inflammatory bowel disease, history of stroke, history of acute coronary disease less than 3 months, pregnancy, refuse informed consent.
The aim of our study is: 1. The early detection of NAFLD in CKD patients with different stages (stage I to IV) to avoid progression to liver fibrosis. 2. Evaluation of the relationship between the severity of fatty liver in NAFLD assessed by liver enzymes, biochemical markers, ultrasonography and grades of Fibroscan with CKD staging, eGFR and proteinuria.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of multi-dose DDO-3055 tablets in patients with anemia of non-dialysis chronic kidney diseases.
This phase II trial studies how well intensive blood pressure management works in decreasing systolic blood pressure in patients with kidney or thyroid cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) who are starting anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor cancer therapy. This study is being done to find out if a systolic blood pressure to a target of less than 120 mmHg (intensive systolic blood pressure management) can be achieved, well tolerated, and beneficial as compared to the usual approach to a target of less than 140 mmHg while taking an anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor. This study may help doctors understand the best way to control blood pressure in kidney or thyroid cancer patients taking anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
Overall study aim of this study is to analyse descriptive statistics of Patient-Reported Outcome（PROs） which will be used in the Hyperkalemia（HK） registry study in hyperkalemia patients with Chronic Kidney Disease（CKD） or Heart Failure（HF） to describe the practice patterns of hyperkalemia treatment in in clinical practice. Based on these assessments, this study will provide the information for the applicability of PRO measurements which will be used in the Hyperkalemia registry study to the study population, i.e. CKD and/or HF patients with hyperkalemia
Data show that the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptoms can be severe in 4% and 3% of the adolescents aged 11-15 years and ≥ 16 years, respectively. In addition, the prevalence of chronic diseases among adolescents has increased in the last years. About 20% of the adolescents have some chronic disease, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. In march, 2020, the quarantine was officially implemented in Sao Paulo, while elective medical appointments for adolescents with chronic disease were temporarily suspended. To mitigate the deleterious effect of the social isolation on physical and mental health among these patients, this study aims to test the effects of an online, home-based, exercise training program.
