Effects of Exogenous Ketosis on Proteinuria and Renal Function
A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover study will be conducted. Fourteen patients with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and 29 patients with proteinuric kidney disease will receive ketone bodies (Ketone-IQ) and placebo in a randomized order. Each treatment period is four weeks. There will be a wash-out period of two weeks in …
Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist in ADPKD
The proposed clinical trial aims to assess if a year of treatment with a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist, a medication approved for weight management that also improves the body's response to glucose and insulin, can slow kidney growth in adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease who are overweight …
Multi-center Clinical Study on Hemoperfusion of KHA80
To evaluate the decreasing rate of blood IL-6, β2-MG and PTH in maintenance hemodialysis patients in the 52nd week compared with routine hemodialysis.
PB to Treat Hereditary Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus, ADPKD Treated With Tolvaptan, and Severely Polyuric Patients With Previous Lithium Administration
The purpose of this research is to study the effectiveness and safety of the medication PB in slowing the frequent urination related to tolvaptan as long-term treatment of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD), or frequent urination related to inherited nephrogenic diabetes insipidus as an inherited condition or as an …
Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate to Allow Liberal Fruit and Vegetable Intake for Patients With CKD Stage 3b and 4
Rationale: Several studies have shown that higher urinary potassium excretion (as proxy for potassium intake) is associated with better kidney outcomes, lower blood pressure and improved survival. These associations are also observed in patients with (advanced) CKD. However, application in daily practice in patients with CKD, is impaired by the …
Influence of Obesity on Endogenous Oxalate Synthesis
There is increasing evidence that obesity is associated with increased urinary oxalate excretion, an important risk factor for calcium oxalate stone formation. By the administration of a controlled low oxalate diet the investigators will estimate endogenous oxalate synthesis in both non-obese and obese non-kidney-stone forming adults. This study seeks to …
Oxalate Formation From Ascorbic Acid
The purpose of this basic research study is to determine the contribution of endogenous ascorbic acid (AA) turnover to urinary oxalate excretion in both normal BMI and obese adult non-stone formers and calcium oxalate stone formers. The studies proposed will use diets of known nutrient composition, a stable isotope of …
Oxalate and Citrate
This is a single-center study that aims to earn more about how two different compounds found in food, oxalate and citrate, may affect a person's chances of forming kidney stones.
Oxalate-Driven Host Responses in Kidney Stone Disease
This study is looking to understand the role of oxalate on kidney stone development and immunity. This study will enroll healthy participants and participants with calcium oxalate kidney stones (CaOx KS). Participants will be in this study for about 3 weeks, consume controlled diets, and provide blood and urine specimens.
Randomized Controlled Trial of Miniaturized Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy With Vacuum-Assisted Access Sheaths Versus Conventional Sheaths for Treatment of Nephrolithiasis
The purpose of this study is to compare two variations of the mini-PCNL procedure using either a vacuum-assisted sheath or standard sheath which are both used for the surgical treatment of kidney stones. Both procedure types are commonly used in the treatment of kidneys stones and they have been shown …
