TreaT-Assay: the New Frontier for the Diagnosis of Acute Rejection in Kidney Transplantation
Kidney transplantation is the standard therapy for end-stage renal disease. Acute rejection (AR) or chronic rejection along with reactive donor immunity, which counteracts organ acceptance, are among the greatest medical challenges in transplantation. In the posttransplantation setting, immunosuppressive drugs are administered to control or prevent immune reactions; however, the therapies …
Hyperthyroidism as a Potential Predictive of Worse Outcome of Renal Graft
The objectives of the study are: to research the association, if any, between the occurrence of thyroid function changes in the immediate post-transplant period and the prognosis of the transplant itself; identify any risk factors for the occurrence of thyroid disorders In the immediate post-transplant period.
A Prospective Danish National Registry of PTRA in Patients With Renovascular Hypertension
A prospective Danish national registry of percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) in high-risk patients with renal artery stenosis selected on the basis of common national criteria, and with a common follow-up protocol for all three Danish centres offering PTRA
TESTING -ON Post-Trial ObservatioNal Cohort Study
The primary aim of this study is to extend follow up of TESTING study participants and to assess the long-term effects of a 6-9-month course of oral methylprednisolone on End Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD), according to dose (full-dose vs reduced-dose), ethnicity (Chinese vs other) and kidney function (eGFR above and …
Sensor-based Congestion ALert for Events in Peritoneal Dialysis (SCALE-PD)
To explore the use of the Bodyport Cardiac Scale in predicting worsening of events due to fluid overload in patients with kidney disease on peritoneal dialysis.
Improving Renal Complications in Adolescents With Type 2 Diabetes Through REsearch Cohort Study (National iCARE Study)
The overall aim of the project is to elucidate the primary bio-psycho-social (BPS) risk factors for albuminuria in youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and the mechanisms by which they cause renal injury. The Study aims include: Characterize the primary BPS risk factors associated with prevalent and progressive albuminuria in …
Inflammation and Obesity-associated Disease
Visceral obesity and adipose inflammation is considered a driving force of obesity-related systemic disease, e.g. cardiometabolic disease, liver cirrhosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Inflammatory resolution is actively regulated by specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), including the endogenous eicosanoid LXA4. Impairment of SPMs may underlie development of obesity-related pathology.We hypothesize that …
The Microbiota in Kidney Donation and Transplantation
The human gastrointestinal tract harbours ~40 trillion microbial cells, far outnumbering the cell number, and therefore the genetic content of its host. How this genetically diverse bacterial (collectively referred as 'microbiota') co-resident modulates host homeostasis is largely unknown. We are increasing gaining a better understanding how the microbes modulate mucosal …
Interest of the SPECT-CT Scan SUVspect in the New Generation of Gamma-cameras With Semiconductor
Since 2017, a revolution began in the departments of nuclear medicine, with the routine use of gamma-cameras with semiconductor. These gamma-cameras (which obtained the CE-marking in 2016), offer a technological breakthrough by providing an additional information. They allow "to quantify" for the 1st time in clinical routine conditions, the quantity …
Multidisciplinary Dissection of Renal and Metabolic Effects of Glyfozines on Elderly Patients: From Molecular Aspects to Clinical Indications
The project aims to study the impact of SGLT2i therapy on clinical and biochemical aspects. in elderly. The project will combine different types of data, such as clinical and biological information, and will use advanced Bayesian statistical methods to understand the relationship between risk factors and patient outcomes following treatment …
