Filter by:The national drug safety agency authorizes nominatively the use of sodium thiosulfate in dialysis patients with calciphylaxis. To date, it is the largest global cohort (more 600 patients from 2012 to 2016). We wanted to study retrospectively the fate of these patients at 6 months including mortality. Early use improves effectiveness.
This is a pilot, single-centre, feasibility study to assess the feasibility issues and collect preliminary clinical data for the design of future randomized controlled trial to evaluate the feasibility and patient comfort of magnetic retrieval device removal of ureteral stent in transplant patients.
This study evaluates the clinical efficacy and study the therapeutic mechanism of a kind of traditional Chinese medicine colonic dialysis on Chronic kidney disease (CKD) 5 without blood dialysis therapy in adults. Half of participants will receive conventional integrated therapy on chronic renal failure (CRF), while the other half will receive integrated therapy on CRF and traditional Chinese medicine colonic dialysis.
During ultra endurance events, athletes experience extreme physical and mental demands, sometimes at the limits of the adaptive response to human physiology. This is particularly true for the renal function, and some evidence for acute renal failure has already been shown, sometimes leading to dialysis. However, the precise mechanisms involved in acute renal failure in such ultra endurance races are not clearly elucidated. The aim of our study is to estimate glomerular filtration rate from serum and urinary creatinine and cystitin C at the beginning and at the end of a 110 km ultra endurance race. Our hypothesis is that during the ultra endurance race, renal function may be injured, with a risk for the athlete.
The purpose of this trial was to evaluate whether the study drug, LIK066, causes glucose excretion in urine in patients with varying degrees of decreased kidney function and in subjects with normal kidney function. Blood samples were collected to measure the concentrations of LIK066 and to study the pharmacokinetics of LIK066. Pharmacokinetics is meant to study how LIK066 is absorbed, distributed and eliminated, in other words what the body does to the drug. The results of this study may be used to help determine whether LIK066 can be used to treat people with reduced kidney function and the proper dosing regimen.
The investigators aim at describing changes in renal glomerular and tubular function with after the switch from TDF to TAF in HIV/HBV-coinfected patients with mild to moderate renal dysfunction and to assess the virological efficacy of TAF on HBV infection. The study will include HIV/HBV-coinfected participants of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study (SHCS) who are under active care and have been on a stable, TDF-containing ART regimen for at least 6 months. Only patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) between 30 ml/min and 90 ml/min will be included. All individuals who agree to participate will be switched from a TDF-containing ART regimen to a TAF-containing triple ART regimen at week 0 and will be followed for 48 weeks after the treatment change.
The main aim of the study is to investigate and compare the possible acute effect of standard PCNL, mini-PCNL and RIRS on renal function. Secondary aims are to investigate the efficacy (stone-free rate), safety (complication rate, long-term kidney function) and other parameters (operation, fluoroscopy and hospitalization time) concerning the 3 endourological operations (PCNL, mini- PCNL, RIRS) for the treatment of renal calculi.
This trial aims to evaluate the plasma pharmacokinetics of gefapixant (MK-7264) administered to participants with varying degrees of renal insufficiency (RI) compared to healthy matched controls; and to investigate the extent of MK-7264 removal by hemodialysis (HD) in participants with end stage renal disease (ESRD), following administration of a single 50 mg dose of gefapixant.
The aim of this study is to test if alkali treatment will preserve kidney graft function and diminish the progression of chronic kidney disease in renal transplant patients. Additionally the underlying mechanisms of nephrotoxicity of metabolic acidosis will be investigated in this cohort. This study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, single-blind (patient), placebo-controlled interventional trial to test the superiority of alkali treatment in comparison to placebo on preservation of kidney function in 300 kidney transplant recipients. The duration of the study will be 2 years for the individual participant. The patients will be randomized into 2 arms: intervention arm (sodium hydrogen carbonate, product: Nephrotrans®) and placebo arm (placebo comparator). Several studies in CKD (chronic kidney disease) patients have shown that alkali therapy slows progression of CKD.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of erythropoietin when used in high dose during acute kidney injury can decrease the number of days of kidney injury.
