Assessment of Kidney Function by Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT)
The product under investigation is named Gense EIT-kidney device. This kidney device is a portable and non-invasive imaging modality capable of capturing the cross-sectional bioelectrical impedance distribution of the kidney at multiple current injection frequencies using electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Currently, the kidney device employs a band consisting of 16 …
Safety and Tolerability of Vertebral Bone Marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BM-MSC) in Real World Scenarios of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
The purpose of this treatment protocol is to treat an intermediate-sized population with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Protocol includes a single treatment with intravenously-delivered allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) infusion. Individuals will have subsequent follow up for safety evaluations.
Assessment of T-cell Response and In-vitro Proof-of-concept of T-cell Engineering in Chronic ESKD Patients.
This is a comparative, prospective, non-interventional study to evaluate immune response in patients with chronic kidney disease. The primary objective is to define immunodeficiency (phenotype and function of T cells) in patients with end-stage kidney disease. The second objective is to provide an in-vitro proof-of-concept of T-cell engineering in the …
Neurocognitive Outcomes for ICU Patients With Acute Kidney Injury
Introduction. Initiation of acute kidney replacement therapy (KRT) is common in critically ill adults admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. KRT has been linked to poor neurocognitive outcomes, leading to a reduced quality of life, as well as increased utilization of …
Inflammatory Mediators of Acute Kidney Injury in Intensive Care
Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects more than 50% of patients admitted to the intensive care unit. The most common underlying cause is sepsis. Severe AKI in combination with sepsis is associated with high mortality. The mechanisms for sepsis-induced AKI are largely unknown. Our hypothesis is that the inflammatory response to …
KTRSensor Scotland Study: An Observational Study Into Predictors and Diagnosis of Kidney Transplant Rejection
An observational study capturing real world transplant patients in the post-operative setting aiming to further determine the utility of biomarkers to improve outcomes.
CKD Cachexia and Gut Microbiome
Cachexia is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Cachexia is a complex syndrome, in which inflammation and retention of uremic toxins are two main contributing factors. In this context, the role of the gut microbiome in CKD cachexia and the …
Evaluation of the Effect of Finerenone on Renal Function in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease
Research Objectives To evaluate the impact of finerenone on renal function, diabetic complications, and safety in patients with Type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Study Design Type: Prospective, single-arm, multicenter clinical trial. Sample Size: 300 patients. Intervention: Finerenone added to existing treatment regimen (10-20 mg once daily, dose adjusted …
Risk Factors for AKI in Patients Undergoing VATS for Pulmonary Resection
This study aims to investigate the potential factors contributing to the development of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in patients undergoing pulmonary resection with Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) for lung malignancy. The study will focus on demographic data, laboratory parameters, perioperative fluid management, and haemodynamics. The research will be conducted …
Cardiac Tissue Sodium Assessment in CKD Patients Using Sodium MRI
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is prevalent worldwide and affects around 10% of people living in developed health economies. As the kidney loses its function in patients with CKD, the kidneys are unable to filter toxins out of the blood as efficiently as those of healthy individuals. Arguably, sodium (salt) is …
