Filter by:This is a multi-national, observational study program using secondary data sources to address research questions related to 1) real-world dapagliflozin utilisation in CKD and potential for further utilisation, 2), the current CKD treatment landscape and 3) real-world effectiveness of dapagliflozin in CKD (pending feasibility assessment).
The goals of this project are to investigate the mechanisms and potential therapies related to exercise capacity in persons with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
This is an observational study in which the health data of people with chronic kidney disease are studied using electronic healthcare records. In observational studies, only observations are made without participants receiving any advice or any changes to healthcare. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition in which the kidney's ability to work properly gradually decreases over time. This causes a buildup of waste in the body and can lead to loss of kidney function over the long term. CKD is divided into different stages based on how well the kidneys are filtering the blood. CKD is known to increase the risk of developing serious health problems such as serious heart problems, irreversible damage to kidneys requiring either dialysis or a kidney transplant (end stage kidney disease, ESKD), and early death. However, there is limited information available about how often heart problems occur in people with different stages of CKD, and how a history of heart problems might affect future risks for CKD patients. The purpose of this study is to collect more information on how CKD changes over time for people at different CKD stages and how it affects their heart and kidneys. The main information that researchers will collect in this study: changes in kidney function (worsening or improvement). Other information that researchers will collect: patient characteristics for each stage of CKD, the length of time for serious heart-related conditions to occur, the length of time it takes for CKD to progress to kidney failure, the length of time for occurrence of deaths due to any causes, and the length of time it takes for serious heart-related conditions and kidney failure to occur. This study will include CKD patients above 18 years of age. Researchers will review electronic healthcare records to identify CKD patients in two ways: using disease codes for CKD and using lab results which show abnormal kidney function. The data will come from participants' information stored in an electronic healthcare records database called Merative Explorys database Electronic Medical Record (EMR) in the United States of America. The research will cover the period from January 2010 up to December 2019. Researchers will track individual patients' data and will follow them for a maximum of 5 years or until they experience certain events like changes to their CKD stage, kidney failure, serious heart-related conditions, or death. In this study, only available data from routine care is analyzed. No visits or tests are required.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), a progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly, and type 1 diabetes. In people with type 1 diabetes, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin, resulting in high blood sugar levels that can cause damage to the kidneys. CKD often occurs together with or as a consequence of type 1 diabetes. The study treatment finerenone works by blocking certain proteins, called mineralocorticoid receptors. An increased stimulation of these proteins is thought to damage the kidneys and the heart. By lowering their stimulation, finerenone reduces the risk of kidney disease progressively getting worse. Finerenone is approved for doctors to prescribe to people with CKD and type 2 diabetes. In this study, researchers want to learn if finerenone works better than placebo in reducing the participants' kidney disease from getting worse when given in addition to standard of care (SOC) treatment. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. SOC is a procedure or treatment that medical experts consider most appropriate for a condition or disease. To find out how well finerenone works, the level of a protein (albumin) in the urine will be measured. Researchers also want to know how safe finerenone is. To do this, the researchers will collect the number of participants with: - medical problems (also called treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)) - serious TEAEs. An TEAE is considered 'serious' when it leads to death, puts the participant's life at risk, requires hospitalization, causes disability, causes a baby being born with medical problems, or is medically important - higher than normal blood levels of potassium (hyperkalaemia). Depending on the treatment group, the participants will either take finerenone or placebo, Importantly, the participants will also continue to take their regular SOC medicines. The participants will be in the study for up to 7.5 months and will take the study treatments for 6 months. During the study, they will visit the study site at least 6 times. The study team will: - collect blood and urine samples - check the participants' vital signs such as blood pressure and heart rate - do a physical examination including height and weight - check the participants' heart health by using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - do pregnancy tests in women of childbearing potential

The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary fiber on anemia and glomerular filtration rate in non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease. Participants will be randomly divided into a dietary fiber intervention group and a blank control group. The patients in the dietary fiber intervention group will have dietary fiber intake survey conducted by dietitians on the basis of basic treatment. Supplemented dietary fiber was given on the basis of daily diet, once a day, 1 piece each time, before meals, and the intervention lasted for 3 months. The blank control group was followed up without intervention. Clinical data, blood, urine and stool samples were collected at the initial diagnosis and at each follow-up site.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized as renal dysfunction, is recognized as a major public health problem with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. This study aimed to analyze the common drug use and combinations of different stages and types of CKD patients. The study is a multicenter retrospective study involving three hospitals. Investigators reviewed and analyzed all patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease from July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2022. Chronic kidney disease was defined as eGFR less than 60 mL/min per 1·73 m(2) or the presence of albuminuria. The study selected seven types of drugs based on hospital electronic medical record data, including β Receptor blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor blockers, angiotensin II receptors, DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, SGLT2 inhibitors, and calcium channel blockers. Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test, and Kruskal Wallis test will be used for statistical analysis. The main purpose of this study is to provide evidence for promoting rational drug use in CKD patients by describing the drug use. The secondary purpose of the study is to explore the efficacy, safety and economy of SGLT-2 inhibitors in diabetes nephropathy (DN).
The main purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of orforglipron compared with insulin glargine in participants with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight at increased cardiovascular risk. The study will last approximately 2 years may include up to 27 visits.
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic kidney disease (CKD). The kidneys filter extra water and waste out of the blood and make urine. CKD is a long-term, progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly. The study treatment BAY3283142 is under development for treating CKD. It works by activating a protein called soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) that generates cGMP - a molecule that relaxes blood vessels and is thought to have beneficial effects in CKD. The participants of this study will be healthy and will have no benefit from the intake of the study treatment. However, the study will provide information on how to use BAY3283142 in subsequent studies in people with CKD. The main purpose of this study is to learn how safe the study treatment BAY3283142 is and how it affects the body in comparison to placebo when given as single and multiple amounts in healthy male participants in Japan. A placebo is a treatment that looks like a medicine but does not have any medicine in it. To do this, the study team will compare the number of participants who have medical problems after taking BAY3283142 with those participants who take placebo. These medical problems are called adverse events. The study doctors and their team keep track of all medical problems that happen in studies, even if they do not think they might be related to the study treatments. Another purpose of this study is to learn how the study treatment BAY3283142 moves into, through, and out of the body. To answer this, the study doctors and their team will take blood samples from the participants and measure: - The average highest level of BAY3283142 in the blood (also called Cmax) - The average total level of BAY3283142 in the blood (also called AUC). Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either take BAY3283142 or placebo as tablet once a day. A group of participants will start out by receiving a low amount of the study treatment. The study doctors will look at the results from these participants and then decide whether to increase the amount of the study treatment in the next group of participants. Researchers use dose escalation studies to learn about the safety of a specific amount before participants are given a higher amount. Participants will be in the study for up to 7 weeks, including an in-house stay of up to 15 days. One test (screening) visit to the study center is planned before the start of treatment and one follow-up visit is planned after the end of treatment. During the study, the study team will: - check vital signs - do physical examinations - take blood and urine samples - examine the participants' heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG)
The protective nitric oxide (NO) effects are mediated by selective pulmonary vasodilation and improvement of arterial oxygenation in hypoxemic patients by reducing intrapulmonary shunting and improving ventilation-perfusion coordination. Inhaled NO has been used for years to treat acute respiratory failure and pulmonary hypertension in anesthesia and intensive care. The nephroprotective role of NO was studied in an experimental model of contrast-induced nephropathy. The primary aim of this prospective, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, controlled trial is to test the hypothesis that perioperative conditioning of patients with NO at a dose of 80 ppm, obtained by plasma-chemical synthesis technology, through a ventilator and an extracorporeal circulation circuit reduces the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with an initially high risk of kidney damage due to the presence of preoperative chronic kidney disease (CKD). The study is interventional. Examination and treatment of patients is carried out in accordance with the approved standards of medical care for the relevant diseases. During the study, no experimental or unregistered (not approved for use) medical or diagnostic procedures in the territory of the Russian Federation will be carried out. The study includes patients admitted to the Cardiac Surgery Department of Cardiology Research Institute of Tomsk NRMC for elective surgery with high risk of AKI in the perioperative period
