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 …
Role of Coenzyme Q10 in Chronic Kidney Disease
This randomized placebo controlled double blind parallel clinical study will be conducted on 44 non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients (Stages 2-3b).Clinical Study Evaluating the Role of Coenzyme Q10 as Adjuvant Therapy to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor on Blood Pressure, Proteinuria and Bone Metabolism in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. …
Transitioning to Home or In-center Dialysis
For people with advanced kidney disease, deciding which type of dialysis is best can be challenging. Studies have shown that quality of life is very important to patients. It is thought that the quality of life of people receiving their dialysis at home may be better than the one of …
Pyrophosphate and Arterial Calcification in Chronic Kidney Disease
Arterial calcifications start at early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and are associated to cardiovascular mortality. Pyrophosphate (PPi) is an endogenous compound, which stops the mineralization process in bones and is expected to act at ectopic sites. In uremic rats, low PPi plasma levels are associated with high calcium …
Ferric Citrate and Chronic Kidney Disease in Children
We will conduct a 12-month, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess the effects of therapy with ferric citrate (FC) on changes in intact FGF23 levels (iFGF23, primary endpoint) in 160 pediatric patients (80 in each of the two arms) aged 6-18 years of either sex with chronic kidney disease (CKD) …
ODYSSEE Kidney Health Trial
INTRODUCTION Severe CKD is defined as a risk of greater than 10% for progressing to RRT \[home hemodialysis (HHD), home peritoneal dialysis (HPD), and transplantation\] within 2 years. There is a need to improve access to CKD self-care counselling and RRT education for patients with severe CKD. Trials of CKD …
A Pilot Study of The CKM JumpStart Tool
This is a randomized pilot study to test the feasibility and acceptability of a tool to promote discussion about conservative kidney management (CKM) among older patients with advanced CKD and their providers.
Nurse-led Physician-supported Care for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease and Multimorbidity
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent chronic disease and is often intertwined with the management of cardiovascular disease and the optimization of metabolic risk factors. In light of steeply rising rates of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and increased healthcare resource utilization by CKD patients, the investigators propose that the …
Pioglitazone to Reduce Sympathetic Overactivity in CKD Patients
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and death. An overactive sympathetic nervous system in CKD patients is one of the major mechanisms increasing the cardiovascular risks in this patient population. Recently, some studies have shown that a drug typically used to improve glucose …
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.
