Filter by:In this study, 100 hemodialysis patients aged between 18-65 were examined. Participants were randomly divided into two groups: the exercise group and the control group. The exercise group performed moderate-intensity aerobic exercises for 30 minutes three times a week during hemodialysis sessions. Additionally, they engaged in walking exercises for 30 minutes three times a week outside of hemodialysis sessions, maintaining their heart rate between 50-60%. The exercise group also performed isolated exercises to expand wrist vessels 2-3 days a week outside of hemodialysis sessions. The vessel diameters of the patients were measured by ultrasound at the beginning and after 12 weeks.
Kidneys have a vital role in glucose homeostasis by various mechanisms, one of the major mechanisms is through SGLT2. This role was commonly overlooked till development of the new SGLT2 inhibitors. (Ni, L., et al 2020) The SGLT2 inhibitor class of glucose-lowering agents has recently shown beneficial effects to reduce the onset and progression of renal complications in people with and without diabetes, through slow the decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), delaying the onset of microalbuminuria and slow or reverse the progression of proteinuria. (Nespoux, J., & Vallon, V. 2020) The drug pentoxifylline is a methyl-xanthine derivative and a nonselective phosphodiesterase inhibitor with anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative and antifibrotic actions currently indicated for peripheral artery disease. (Panchapakesan U et al.,2018) Chronic kidney disease is a progressive disorder in which patients are treated according to complications presented such as hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, anemia and metabolic acidosis.
This study evaluates the role of genetic in the development and progression of different nephropaties with particular attention to: - AKI - CKD - Hypertension - ADPKD - CKD-MBD - Patients with decompensated heart failure undergoing either medical or surgery therapy - Patients with hematologic cancer exposed to chemotherapeutic agents or undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation - glomerular diseases
In arteriovenous fistula surgery, the effect of infraclavicular brachial plexus block and local anesthesia on tissue oxygenation and the effect of primary patency of the AV fistula is intended to research.
This is a randomized pilot study to test the feasibility and acceptability of a novel conservative care (CC) pathway among patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) who have chosen to forgo initiation of maintenance dialysis, their caregivers and providers.
The investigators are conducting a study to see if an educational program called Chronic Kidney Disease-Education (CKD-EDU) can help make better kidney therapy decisions and improve the well-being of older adults. Investigators are also investigating if this program can reduce the number of hospital or emergency room visits in the first 6 months of the study, as well as potentially improve end-of-life care for older adults. Half of the participants will receive the CKD-EDU intervention, while the other half will continue with their usual nephrology care. Investigators will compare the two groups to see if participants who received the intervention feel better prepared about their kidney therapy decisions, experience improved end-of-life care, and have fewer emergency room visits, hospital admissions, Participants in the intervention group will get information about kidney disease treatment and meet with a palliative care specialist who's an expert in decision-making.
VISIONAIRE (Vitamin K AntagonISt, Factor Xa Inhibitor Or Nothing In Atrial Fibrillation And DIalytic End-stage Renal DiseasE) trial will be a prospective randomized open-label with blinded endpoint adjudication trial including 1500 patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter and advanced chronic kidney disease
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD is a condition in which the kidneys' ability to work properly gradually decreases over time. The kidneys help the body get rid of waste through urine and filter the blood before sending it back to the heart. When kidney function decreases, waste builds up in the body, which can cause various complications. The study treatment, BAY 3283142, is under development to treat 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. BAY3283142 is broken down in the liver by a specific enzyme before it is removed from the body. In this study, researchers want to understand how a mild or moderate reduction in liver function affects the blood levels of BAY3283142. The main purpose of this study is to learn how BAY3283142 moves into, through, and out of the body, after a single dose of BAY3283142 in participants with reduced liver function. For this, the researchers will analyze: - Area under the curve (AUC): a measure of the total amount of BAY3283142 in participants' blood over time - Maximum observed concentration (Cmax): the highest amount of BAY 3283142 in participants' blood The AUC and Cmax values for participants with reduced liver function will be compared with the values for participants with normal liver function. The study participants will be assigned to one of the four treatment groups based on their liver function: - Group 1: participants with mild reduction in liver function - Group 2: participants with moderate reduction in liver function - Groups 3 and 4: participants with normal liver function who will be matched for age, weight, and gender with participants with reduced liver function All participants will take a single dose of BAY3283142 as a tablet by mouth without food. Each participant will be in the study for around 5 to 6 weeks, which includes: - a visit within 28 days of starting treatment to confirm if the participant can take part in this study - a hospital stay for 7 days during which the participant will be given a single dose of BAY3283142 and the study doctor will monitor the participant's health - a visit after 7 to 10 days of taking BAY3283142 during which the study doctor will perform a health check-up on the participant During the study, the doctors and their study team will: - check participants' health by performing tests such as blood and urine tests, blood pressure measurements, and checking heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG) - ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective of whether they think it is related or not to the study treatment. Access to study treatment after the end of this study is not planned. Participants with liver problems can continue taking their other prescribed medicines as usual.
The goal of this study is to investigate the effects of different IMT protocols on respiratory muscle strength, functional exercise capacity, quadriceps femoris muscle strength (QMS), handgrip muscle strength (HGS), QoL, respiratory function, dyspnoea, fatigue, balance, and PA levels in patients with CKD that were not on dialysis.
Intensive Patient Referral and Education Program prior to Renal Replacement Therapy (iPREP RRT) is a 12-week intervention that identifies hospitalized African Americans with advanced chronic kidney disease(CKD) and provides them with hospital- and community-based education, navigation and self-management support. Participants will be randomized to the iPREP RRT intervention versus enhanced usual care.
