Roxadustat's Effect on Heart, Nutrition, and Inflammation in Hemodialysis Patients
Patients with kidney failure who require hemodialysis often suffer from anemia (low red blood cell count), heart and blood vessel problems, and a condition involving poor nutrition, inflammation, and hardening of the arteries (called MIA syndrome). Standard treatments for anemia often involve injections and iron supplements. This study aims to …
SEDentary Lifestyle, Mortality and Major Adverse Clinical Outcomes in Chronic KIDney Disease
The goal of this study is to learn if a simple home exercise program can benefit patients with advanced chronic kidney disease. There is also an observational part of the study without an exercise program. The study will record patients' mortality, cardiovascular events, emergency department visits, hospital stays, need for …
Concomitant Renal and Urinary Bladder Allograft Transplantation
The purpose of this study is to establish if concomitant renal and vascularized urinary bladder allograft transplantation is feasible.
Hemodynamics in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients Undergoing Isolated Ultrafiltration Compared to Conventional Hemodialysis
Patients treated with hemodialysis (HD) bear increased risk of cardiovascular events, which results in high morbidity and mortality among this cohort of patients. Intradialytic hypotension (IDH), which is an independent risk factor for mortality, occurs in up to 20% of hemodialysis session and may lead to myocardial stunning and cerebral …
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 …
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 …
AMSC for Reducing Anastomotic Stenosis in Primary Arteriovenous Anastomoses
Researchers are evaluating the safety of allogeneic Adipose Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AMSC) use during hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula and arterial bypass creation and its efficacy on improving access maturation and primary anastomotic patency.
Benefits of Hemodialysis Plus Hemoperfusion: A Clinical Study
This multi-center, open-label, randomized, parallel controlled trial aims to investigate the efficacy of hemoperfusion (HP) in combination with hemodialysis (HD) by assessing blood β2-microglobulin (β2-MG), parathyroid hormone (PTH) and C reactive protein (CRP) clearance in maintenance hemodialysis patients.
To Compare the Efficacy and Safety of the HAV With AVF in Female Patients With End-Stage Renal Disease Requiring Hemodialysis
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the number of catheter-free days (CFD) and the rate and severity of any dialysis access-related infections between the HAV and AVF groups over 12 months in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) needing hemodialysis (HD). Participants will be stratified by location …
Intravenous vs. Oral Hydration to Reduce the Risk of Post-Contrast Acute Kidney Injury After Intravenous Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography in Patients With Severe Chronic Kidney Disease
The use of contrast media (CM) poses a risk of post-contrast acute kidney injury (PC-AKI), especially among patients chronic kidney disease (CKD). International guidelines recommend intravenous (IV) hydration with isotonic 0.9% NaCl for three-four hours pre-contrast and four-six hours post-contrast. Recent studies have proven that oral hydration or no hydration …
