Filter by:This study evaluates the effectiveness of different anti-hypertensive drugs on patients with hypertension and microalbuminuria.
This project is an intervention study where type 2 diabetic patients will rotate through 4 different albuminuria lowering drugs with the aim to 1) quantify the individual relationship between drug exposure and albumin lowering response of different albuminuria lowering drugs in type 1 and type 2 diabetics; and 2) to investigate the effect of the same drug intervention on the glycocalyx layer in blood vessels. The overall purpose of this study is to allow for future personalized treatment of diabetics with regards to treating kidney disease more effectively than current standardized strategies.
This study will test the effectiveness of mailed, smartphone urinalysis kits to improve albuminuria screening compliance and detection of albuminuria.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of 2 dose levels of TMX-049 on urinary albumin excretion in subjects with Type 2 diabetes and albuminuria (a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) 200 to 3000 mg/g and an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥30 ml/min/1.73m2). Effects of each TMX-049 dose on UACR will be assessed in terms of ratios using log-transformed UACR at Baseline and after a 12-week period of treatment.
Albuminuria is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, all cause mortality. Inhibition of the renin-angiotension-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important role in the reduction of albuminuria and preservation of renal function in patients with CKD and it is known that the daily intakes of sodium have a significant effect on the activity of RAAS. Dietary sodium restriction has been shown to enhances the blood pressure, albuminuria, and renal function preservation. Furthermore, recent study has shown that intensive low-salt dietary education reduces albuminuria in patients with CKD. The average sodium intake of Koreans is 4,791 mg/d, which is higher than other countries. It is difficult for medical staff in Korea to invest enough time in low salt diet. Recently, the development of health-related applications (apps) has been carried out worldwidely, and researches on lifestyle improvement using apps have been actively studied. However, there is no research yet on whether intensive education using an apps can affect lifestyle habits and thus changes in actual new features. Smartphone apps may provide an alternative to resource-intensive low salt diet-education. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of intensive low salt diet training on the changes of albuminuria using application.
Microalbuminuria is an important biomarker for the development of diabetic nephropathy and cardiovascular complications. Since microalbuminuria is not easily detected on routine urinalysis, current guidelines recommend measuring spot urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) annually in a patient with diabetes mellitus. While the standard method is quantitative measurement using turbidimetric immunoassay, it requires high cost and special laboratory equipment. This may be a hurdle that prevents screening for microalbuminuria in many patients with diabetes. Therefore, a semi-quantitative uACR test, which is rapid and inexpensive, could be used as a substitute to the current standard quantitative measurement. The investigators aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of a semi-quantitative urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio test, URiSCAN 2ACR, as a screening tool for microalbuminuria in patients with diabetes.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of IW-1973 in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with albuminuria who are on a stable regimen of renin-angiotensin system inhibitors.
In this study, the Investigators plan to determine the optimal means to prevent or slow the progression of kidney disease among genetically at-risk northern Nigerian HIV-infected adults. Based on data from studies of diabetic kidney disease that used medications that block the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS), we plan to evaluate whether or not RAAS inhibition (using a widely available medication that blocks RAAS) in HIV-infected adults produces similarly promising results.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate signals of potential clinical benefit of the combination of Verinurad and Febuxostat in lowering concentrations of circulating uric acid and thus improving kidney or cardiovascular status of patients with hyperuricemia, albuminuria, and Type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the renal protective effect of ipragliflozin in combination with metformin on the percent change of UACR from baseline to 24 weeks against glimepiride in combination with metformin in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with albuminuria. The secondary purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety and impact on quality of life (QoL) of ipragliflozin in combination with metformin against glimepiride in combination with metformin in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with albuminuria.
