Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a burden of morbidity and mortality. Increased protein breakdown in skeletal muscle (wasting) and ectopic fat deposition are important determinants of poor clinical outcome in patient with CKD. Insulin resistance plays a critical role in skeletal muscle wasting and ectopic fat deposition. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) decrease ectopic fat deposition in patients with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, obese and overweight subjects. The influence of GLP-1RA on ectopic fat deposition in CKD patients in unknown. The investigators' will test the hypothesis that GLP-1RA decreases intermuscular (ectopic) fat deposition in patients with stage 3-4 CKD. The investigators' will do so by addressing the following specific aims: Specific Aim 1: To test the hypothesis that GLP-1RA decreases intermuscular fat deposition in patients with stage 3-4 CKD. Specific Aim 2: To test the hypothesis that GLP-1RA improves skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in patients with stage 3-4 CKD. Specific Aim 3: To test the hypothesis that GLP-1RA improves physical performance in patients with stage 3-4 CKD. Specific Aim 4: To test the safety and feasibility of 12 weeks of dulaglutide 1.5 mg/wk administration as an adjunct therapy to the standard care of patients with stage 3-4 CKD.
Investigators will conduct a retrospective chart review, examining the impact of chronic kidney disease on risk of myocardial injury after non cardiac surgery (MINS). The objective of this study is to examine interactions between preoperative Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) and the association between preoperative N-Terminal Pro B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) and post operative cardiac events in patients undergoing major non cardiac surgery.
Used multi-year health examination member profile by multi-algorithms technology, to find comprehensive key hazard factors or important high-risk group components for metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease or more common chronic diseases.
The clinical utility trial is designed to evaluate how the results of KidneyIntelX test / platform impacts on the clinical management of type 2 diabetes patients identified as increased risk for rapid kidney function decline within 5-years.
Oxidative stress and inflammation are correlated with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), in a way that they bring several harms to patients, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Adjuvant therapeutic options such as bioactive compounds present in some foods seem to mitigate inflammation. Turmeric and propolis are foods that have compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacity, as they promote the activation of nuclear erythroid transcription factor 2 (Nrf2 - responsible for the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes) and inhibit the activity of nuclear factor Kappa B (NF-κB - which increases the synthesis of inflammatory cytokines). This work aims to evaluate the effects of supplementation of associated propolis and turmeric microcapsules on inflammatory markers in patients with CKD undergoing hemodialysis (HD).
The study is a- 2-arm randomized controlled trial among patients presenting for kidney transplant evaluation at a single transplant center to compare the effects of a patient-based self-learning and outreach intervention about living-donor kidney transplantation (KidneyTIME) versus usual care for living-donor kidney transplant knowledge, concerns, readiness, access behaviors, and living-donor inquiries over 12 months follow-up. Following consent and baseline assessment, participants were randomized, stratified by self-reported race, with equal allocation to 2 treatment arms: the KidneyTIME intervention and usual care.
This is an observational, non-interventional, single-arm multicenter study. The objectives of this study are to assess safety and effectiveness of Forxiga in a real world setting in patients who are prescribed with the study drug according to the newly approved indications in the Republic of Korea
International, multicentre, randomized 1:1 controlled trial to prove the clinical and medico economic benefits of the medical device Predigraft, by showing that the use of Predigraft could improve patient's follow-up.
There is a lack of consensus on whether women with proteinuric kidney disease benefit from prophylactic anticoagulation during pregnancy to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism. This pilot study will investigate the feasibility of obtaining thrombosis profile data using a viscoelastic haemostasis monitor - Sonoclot - from pregnant women with kidney disease, and exploratory analyses to elucidate correlations between output values and clinical parameters
