Urinary Tubular Biomarkers for Chronic Kidney Disease
Currently used tests for chronic kidney injury only assess the function of one part of the kidney: the filter called the glomerulus. The other part, called the tubule, is disregarded. Based on many previous studies, the investigators have good reason to assume that a better prediction of the course of …
Chronic Kidney Disease - REAL Life Study in Alsace
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a public health problem and affects about 10% of the world's adult population with a constantly increasing incidence. The approach to CKD in France is centered on access to replacement therapy (dialysis, renal transplantation), the cost of which amounts to 4 billion euros (data from …
Chronic Kidney Disease-related Sarcopenia With Poor Prognosis
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a global public health priority over the past few decades, affecting 10-12% of the adult population and has received increasing attention. Sarcopenia describes a generalizes degenerative skeletal muscle disorder involving the loss of muscle mass, muscle function and/or physical performance. Indeed, Sarcopenia is a …
IgA Nephropathy Biomarkers Evaluation Study (INTEREST)
This prospective cohort study is designed to examine the association between blood and urine biomarkers (including genetic variants) and long-term kidney disease progression among 2000 Chinese IgA nephropathy patients with relatively normal kidney function (eGFR≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2).
Chronic Kidney Disease in Children Prospective Cohort Study (CKiD)
The Division of Kidney, Urologic, and Hematologic Diseases (DKUHD) of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), in collaboration with the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) funded a cooperative agreement …
KNOW-CKD Cohort, Phase II Study
The goals of KNOW-CKD (KoreaN cohort study for Outcome in patients With Chronic Kidney Disease) study are 1) to establish a CKD cohort representing Korean CKD population for up to 10-year follow-up, and 2) to investigate the renal progression, mortality, complications, risk factors, role of biochemical parameters and the genetic …
Shear Wave Elastography in Differentiating Acute or Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease is a common global public health issue and its prevalence increased year by year. Early diagnosis and intervention can prevent further complications and comorbidities of long-term dialysis, cardiovascular events and mortality as well as improve the patients' life quality. To differentiate acute from chronic kidney disease was …
Research on Gut Microbiota and Metabolomics in Diabetic Kidney Disease
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is characterized by high prevalence, multiple pathogenesis, and lack of effective treatment and management strategies. Early detection helps overcome treatment inertia, enables timely medical intervention, maximizes renal function in diabetic patients, and is essential to avoid renal failure and improve clinical outcomes. The gold standard for …
Family Investigation of Nephropathy and Diabetes (F.I.N.D.)
The Family Investigation of Nephropathy and Diabetes (FIND) is a multicenter study designed to identify genetic determinants of diabetic kidney disease. FIND will be conducted in eleven centers and in many ethnic groups throughout the United States. Two different strategies will be used to localize genes predisposing to kidney disease: …
Registry of IgA Nephropathy in Chinese Children
This study tries to identify the safe and effective treatment option for IgA nephropathy in children. Investigators will perform prospective registration study among 25 pediatric nephrology medical centers in China.
