Filter by:The goal of this interventional study is to determine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises on the vital signs and fatigue levels of patients with renal transplantation.
The current study is a noninterventional prospective study examining the efficacy of additional dosage of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs).
ACKGROUND: The development of new molecular techniques, in recent years, has increasing the knowledge of the composition and functionality of the intestinal microbiota. In the area of kidney transplantation, observational studies have described a change in the intestinal microbiota during the immediate post-transplantation period that seems to be related to the appearance of clinical outcomes such as diarrhea, repeated urinary tract infections, the need for adjustment of immunosuppressive treatment or acute rejection. However, intervention studies on this subject are necessary to determine how far the microbiota can influence in the development of these events. OBJECTIVE: To clarify the influence of maintaining the composition and functionality of the intestinal microbiota on post-transplant clinical outcomes such as diarrhea, urinary tract infections, kidney graft rejection and the need for dose adjustment of immunosuppressive therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: single-center, randomized, interventional pilot study with 50 deceased kidney donor transplant patients at low immunological risk. Each patient will be randomized at the time of inclusion in the study to one of the 2 branches of the study: 1) Intervention group: 25 patients who will receive a autologous fecal matter transfer during the first 6 months post-transplantation, 2) Control group: 25 renal transplant patients with the same characteristics who will not receive any type of intervention in addition to the immunosuppressive treatment indicated according to hospital protocol.
The purpose of this study is to assess cognitive outcome and quality of life in stable renal transplant patients treated with twice daily tacrolimus at baseline and after switching to Envarsus XL. The study is designed to see if switching patients from Tacrolimus to Envarsus treatment improves cognitive function.
The anastomotic and peripheral stenosis of the transplanted kidney artery is one of the most important causes of graft failure in renal transplantation. The injury of vascular intima and the formation of microthrombosis may play a significant role in the stenosis of transplanted renal artery of recipients. Inhibiting this process with aspirin may protects against the stenosis of transplanted renal artery. This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of prevention of renal artery stenosis in recipients.
Nocturnal hypertension (i.e. blood pressure values >120/70 or 10% higher than diurnal values, as measured by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, ABPM) is particularly frequent in renal transplant recipients (RTR), despite the use of antihypertensive drugs. Since RTR are also affected by several sleep disorders (like insomnia, restless legs syndrome, sleep apnoea) that frankly impair their quality of sleep (SQ), the aim of the present study is to ascertain whether a relationship exists between nocturnal hypertension and SQ. In fact, both nocturnal hypertension and sleep disorders may favour the onset or the progression of cardiovascular diseases, the first cause of death in RTR.
Renal transplantation is now recognized as a treatment of choice for patients with chronic renal failure with end-stage renal disease. Renal transplantations are associated with better quality of life, better cost/benefit ratio, and possibly longer survival. Significant changes in blood pressure are common throughout the surgical procedure for kidney transplantation. All efforts are made to maintain an appropriate level of blood pressure by using an adequate intravascular volume and vasopressor administration.

This study aims to better characterise B cell phenotype and functional abnormalities in kidney transplant patients producing donor specific antibody (DSA) and in those with chronic antibody mediated rejection (cAMR) and to search for a predictive tool (biomarker). The functional analysis will help to better understand B cell-dependant mechanisms implied in T cell proliferation and better target future treatments.
The investigators expect to better characterise B cell subpopulation and functional properties early after graft, to analyse effect of induction therapy (thymoglobulin versus basiliximab) on B cells, and to compare this B cell profiles with those obtained in our previous study in patients with chronic Antibody Mediated Rejection (cAMR)
