Filter by:The primary objective is to demonstrate a longer period of neurologic recovery from a sensory block assessed in each test group versus the group without metabolic disease.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of Soluble Ferric Pyrophosphate (SFP) dialysate solution in maintaining iron delivery for erythropoiesis in anemic adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis. Efficacy will be measured primarily by the change from baseline in hemoglobin (Hgb).

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of varying degrees of renal impairment (mild, moderate, severe and end stage renal disease) compared with subjects with normal renal function on the pharmacokinetics of the hydrocodone bitartrate extended-release tablet.
Heparin is commonly used for anticoagulation of the extracorporeal circuit during continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) but the optimal mode of delivery has not yet been validated. Our study will compare dilute heparin to a standard concentration of heparin. The investigators hypothesize that heparin delivered in a dilute solution will augment coating of the filter fibers with anticoagulants, decreasing clotting events and increasing filter life. By improving delivery of heparin to the filter and circuit, where clotting events can disrupt dialysis, less heparin would be required for the extra-corporeal circuit and thus less heparin would be delivered back to the patient with blood return from the machine. By exposing the patient to less heparin it is hypothesized that fewer bleeding events would occur, making the dialysis treatment safer. If more of the filter's fibers remain patent and the filter is functional for a longer period of time, the CRRT would also be more effective.
Post-operative acute renal failure is a severe post-operative complication and is associated with high mortality. The enhanced prediction score, including pre-as well as intra-operative predictors accurately predicted ARF following hepatic surgery. This prediction score allows early identification of patients at high risk of ARF and may support decision-making for protective kidney treatment.
The steady-state pharmacokinetics of Dalfampridine-ER (extended release) 7.5 mg (milligram) tablets in healthy adult volunteers and those with mild and moderate renal impairment, and examine between group comparisons.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of neutral pH and low glucose degradation product (GDP)-containing peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) on systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction markers in incident PD patients.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers in blood and tumor tissue samples from patients with Wilms tumor.
The aim of this study is to identify families with hereditary chronic tubulointerstitial renal diseases , characterize the phenotype and screen for mutations in known genesis (UMOD, REN, TCF2, NPHP1). Genome wide analysis will be performed in families without mutations identified.
