The aim of this study is to assess the effect of a diet prior to administration of contrast agent in terms of a preventive procedure which leads to an attenuation of the contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). Patients with a known kidney disease are especially at risk. A potential beneficial effect of a diet prior to intervention has been shown in investigations in mammals, therefore this study will investigate if a pre-interventional diet in patients with known kidney disease and scheduled contrast agent examination can attenuate or prevent a post-interventional loss of kidney function.
The study will determine if the Fragmin dose can be adjusted to suit the clinical needs of patients during dialysis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prognostic performance of intrarenal resistive index in the first years after kidney transplantation on graft function and on patient and graft survival. In addition, the determinants of the intrarenal resistive index, including a detailed analysis of the relation between graft histology and the intrarenal resistive index, will be assessed.
To investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of OPC-41061 in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis or hemodiafiltration using variables, such as daily urine volume and increase in interval body weights between hemodialysis or hemodiafiltration, in 4-day intermittant administration (excluding the days of hemodialysis or hemodiafiltration) at the dose fixed during the dose-escalation period
This Study is single arm, single center trial to check the safety and efficacy of Autologous Bone Marrow derived Mono Nuclear Stem Cell (BMMNCs)for the patient with CRF
The study is designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability, immunogenicity and pharmacogenetics of a single dose of serelaxin/RLX030 in patients with severe renal impairment and end-stage-renal-disease (ESRD) compared to healthy volunteers.
Chronic kidney disease is associated with the accumulation of various metabolites, i.e., uremic retention solutes. Evidence is mounting that the colonic microbiome contributes substantially to these uremic retention solutes. Indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate are among the most extensively studied gut microbial metabolites, and are associated with cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease progression and overall mortality. Indirect findings suggest that chronic kidney disease influences the colonic microbial metabolism with higher p-cresyl sulfate urinary excretion rates at more advanced renal disease. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the influence of renal dysfunction on microbial metabolism and to test the hypothesis that chronic kidney disease patients carry a different fecal metabolite profile.
The propose of study is to study if an informative intervention and a structured follow-up carried out in health centres of primary care in patients with chronic kidney failure, stage 3, is more effective than the current follow-up in slowing the disease progression measured by the glomerular filtration rate.
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a well-recognized complication of radiographic contrast administration and is associated with increased short- and long-term mortality. Previous strategies including forced diuresis with diuretics or mannitol, intravenous administration of fenoldopam or dobutamine, and postprocedure hemodialysis to prevent CIN have been largely unsuccessful. In addition, the use of N-acetylcysteine to prevent CIN has yielded conflicting outcomes. A review of a large insurance database and retrospective study have shown that statins therapy is associated with a lower incidence of CIN after percutaneous coronary intervention. The preventive effect of statins on CIN may be attributed to direct pleiotropic effects on the vascular wall such as improvement of endothelial dysfunction, anti-inflammatory or anti-oxidative effect. However, recent randomized trial could not demonstrate the preventive effect of statin on CIN in patients with chronic kidney disease. Thus, we will investigate the preventive effect of pitavastatin on CIN in patient with renal dysfunction undergoing coronary angiography or intervention.
