Functional Capacity in Children with Chronic Kidney Disease
The aim of our study is to assess the functional capacity of children with chronic kidney disease using various tests.
Uremic Toxins and Outcomes in Chronic Kidney Disease
The aim of this cohort study is: To investigate the etiology and epidemiology of comorbidities in CKD; To find out risk factors associated with the mortality of CKD; To find out uremic toxins which are related to the mortality and comorbidities of CKD; To focuse on the association between uremic …
Early Detection of Progressive Kidney Disease in Preterm Infants
Infants born preterm and of low birth weight are known to be at increased risk for early onset of cardiovascular and renal disease in adult life. This has been related to low nephron mass due to inadequate or early termination of glomerulogenesis in utero and during the perinatal period. Risks …
Intestinal Transport of Microbial Metabolites in Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease is associated with the accumulation of various metabolites, i.e., uremic retention solutes. Evidence is mounting that the colonic microbiome contributes substantially to these uremic retention solutes. Indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate are among the most extensively studied gut microbial metabolites, and are associated with cardiovascular disease, chronic …
Autoreactive B Cells in Membranous Nephropathy
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the most frequent cause of nephrotic syndrome (NS) in adults. The majority of MN patients show detectable circulating antibodies against the M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R). Infusion of anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies results in a profound depletion of B-cells, which are thought to be responsible for anti-PLA2R …
LONGitudinal Multi-omics Phenotyping of KIDney Function Alteration
This is a longitudinal observation of kidney function, immune system and gut microbiota before and 24 weeks after a live kidney transplantation conducted in donor and recipient pairs living in the same household. Outcome measures include kidney function, body composition, blood pressure, gut microbiome composition, metabolomics and immune cell states.
Biomonitoring of Internal Exposure to MNPLs, and Its Effects, in Blood of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Micro and nanoplastics (MNPLs) effects on human heath is still preliminary. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) participants, specially does patients submitted to hemodialysis, are a population high exposed to plastics. The objective of our research is to be able to detect MNPLs on biological fluids of hemodialysis patients as well as …
Geriatric Assessment for Older Kidney Transplantation Candidates
Geriatric assessment is now widely used to decide whether older patients with chronic kidney disease should be put on the kidney transplantation waiting list. This study aims to evaluate the association between Geriatric assessment and inscription on kidney transplantation.
Application of Functional Renal MRI to Improve Assessment of Chronic Kidney Disease
Research question: Can multiparametric renal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provide structural and functional assessment of the kidneys to deliver prognostic information and guide treatment options in chronic kidney disease (CKD)? Aims and objectives: To establish a multiparametric renal MRI protocol in CKD cohorts. To use multiparametric MRI to characterise people …
DYNAMic Renal Assessment: NOvel Methods to Assess KIDNEY Functional Reserve
This is a feasibility study to assess new, more practical ways of measuring renal reserve.
