Enhancing Physical Function in Older Adults With Chronic Kidney Disease
The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to examine the feasibility and safety of a 12-week high-velocity resistance training (HVRT) intervention in older adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 4-5 and to generate preliminary data to inform a future study investigating the efficacy of HVRT for improving …
Keeping RAASi Treatment With Optimal Potassium Control
Phase III, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, non-inferiority, phase III clinical trial comparing CSZ (Lokelma) vs. iSRAA discontinuation/reduction and/or ARM (standard treatment).
The Renal Protective Effects of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
The incidence of Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is showing an upward trend, but the therapeutic effect of treatment is limited. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has the potential to safeguard remote organs via the repeated application of brief ischemic stimuli. the aim of our study is to investigate whether RIC can …
Intravascular Ultrasound in Patients With End-stage Renal Disease on Dialysis
Hemodialysis represents a life line of patients with end stage renal disease, who are commonly maintained on hemodialysis through catheters. Prolonged exposure to these catheters eventually damages the walls of veins, which results in stenosis at the local site. This condition is called central venous stenosis (CVS) and affects number …
CoQ10 and Exercise for Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Advance Kidney Disease
Frailty and sarcopenia are modifiable risk factors for morbidity and mortality in patients with ESRD. Exercise is the recommended intervention to prevent frailty and sarcopenia, however, many clinical trials have shown limited clinical improvement in muscle mass and physical function. We propose that mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the deterrents …
SGLT2 Inhibitor in Lupus Nephritis Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
Lupus nephritis (LN) is a common manifestation in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and is an important cause of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although the standard-of-care treatments for active severe LN are effective, a substantial proportion of LN patients still develop CKD and eventually end-stage …
Beneficial Effect of Amiloride on Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover trial testing the effects of amiloride in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and proteinuria. In CKD with proteinuria, there is aberrant filtration of serine proteases and complement precursors into the tubular lumen. The interaction of these factors leads to proinflammatory complement activation, …
Subclinical Primary Aldosteronism in Diabetes At-Risk for Kidney Disease
The aim of this protocol is to assess the presence and severity of primary aldosteronism pathophysiology in patients with type 2 diabetes who have, or are at-risk for developing, chronic kidney disease.
Rituximab Plus Cyclosporine in Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy
Background Membranous nephropathy is associated with damage to the walls of the glomeruli, the small blood vessels in the kidneys that filter waste products from the blood. This damage causes leakage of blood proteins into the urine and is associated with low blood protein levels, high blood cholesterol values, and …
Clinical Outcome of Vinpocetine in Diabetic Nephropathy
The goal of this controlled, randomized, clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of vinpocetine on clinical outcomes on the diabetic nephropathy patients. The following will be evaluated; anthropometrics, kidney functions, glucose panel, lipid panel, ICAM-1, quality of life. Participants will receive either vinpocetine or placebo, twice daily for 3 …
