Recent trials have demonstrated positive renal outcomes of sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) additive to angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (ACEis) in adult patients with diabetic and non-diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD). These trials included no children. The hypothesis of DOUBLE PRO-TECT Alport is to demonstrate superiority of the SGLT2i dapagliflozin in preventing progression of the chronic kidney disease Alport syndrome in children and young adults at early stages of disease. Preventing the rise of albuminuria by dapagliflozin would result in a very significant delay of end-stage kidney failure (ESKF) and improved quality of life. If successful, DOUBLE PRO-TECT Alport will change the treatment recommendations for children with CKD, who have a very high unmet medical need.
This randomized placebo controlled double blind parallel clinical study will be conducted on 44 non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Clinical Study Evaluating the Role of Vitamin K2 as Adjuvant Therapy to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor on Blood Pressure, Proteinuria and Bone Metabolism in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. Patients will be recruited from, Internal Medicine Department, Nephrology Unit, Alexandria Main University Hospital, Egypt. Patients with albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g, with serum Potassium < 5 mEq/L and newly diagnosed patients with hypertension. The study duration will be 6 months. The patients will be randomized using stratified random block method into two groups. Group 1: Control group Non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b). Patients will be treated with ramipril 10 mg/day and a placebo match vitamin K2 capsules once per day.The dose of ramipril may be modified according to blood pressure control. Group 2: Vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7) Non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Patients will be treated with ramipril 10 mg/day and vitamin K2 capsules (menaquinone-7) 90 mcg/day. The dose of ramipril may be modified according to blood pressure control. Participants will be followed-up by weekly telephone calls and monthly direct meetings to assess their adherence for 6 months.
This randomized placebo controlled double blind parallel clinical study will be conducted on 44 non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Clinical Study Evaluating the Role of Coenzyme Q10 as Adjuvant Therapy to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor on Blood Pressure, Proteinuria and Bone Metabolism in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. Patients will be recruited from, Internal Medicine Department, Nephrology Unit, Alexandria Main University Hospital, Egypt. Patients with albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g, with serum Potassium < 5 mEq/L and newly diagnosed patients with hypertension. The study duration will be 6 months. The patients will be randomized using stratified random block method into two groups. Group 1: Control group Non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b). Patients will be treated with ramipril 10 mg/day and a placebo match Coenzyme Q10 capsules once per day.The dose of ramipril may be modified according to blood pressure control. Group 2: Coenzyme Q10 Non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Patients will be treated with ramipril 10 mg/day and Coenzyme Q10 capsules (CoQ10) 200 mg/day. The dose of ramipril may be modified according to blood pressure control. Participants will be followed-up by weekly telephone calls and monthly direct meetings to assess their adherence for 6 months.
This is a prospective, single-center, open and self-controlled study.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Paxlovid for the treatment of COVID-19 patients with severe chronic kidney disease.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of retatrutide on renal function in participants with overweight or obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD), with or without Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). The study will lasts around 31 weeks.
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 goal of this clinical pre-post study is to evaluate the effect of using a CKD dashboard, which visualizes individual patient data in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease stage 3b-4, and is used to structure the conversation during patient-clinician health visits. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • what is the effect of the dashboard on patient activation levels (or outcomes related to patient activation)? • What is the effect of the dashboard on the conversation during health visits, including Shared Decision Making (SDM), Motivational interviewing (MI) and conversation topics? Participants will receive three surveys and have two routine care follow up consultations with their clinician audio recorded. Researchers will compare the same patients before and after implementation as well as compare them with patients in another hospital where no dashboard is (yet) implemented to see if patient activation levels (and related outcomes) increase, and whether there is an increase in SDM, MI and a difference in conversation topics.
The goal of this observational study is to assess validity and reliability of Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire. The main questions it mains to answer are: What is the level of physical activity in hemodialysis patients? Is Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire, Valid to assess physical activity levels of dialysis patients? Is Persian Version of Low Physical Activity Questionnaire, reliable? Participants will answer 3 questionnaires and will do some functional tests.
The goals of this project are to investigate the mechanisms and potential therapies related to exercise capacity in persons with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
