Bleeding Reduction in Acute and Chronic Kidney Patients Having Surgery (BRACKETS) Pilot Trial
The BRACKETS pilot study is a multicentre, prospective, randomized controlled trial of prophylactic preoperative tranexamic acid (TXA) versus placebo and, using a partial factorial design, of prophylactic preoperative desmopressin versus placebo.
Remote Ischemic Preconditioning for Renal and Cardiac Protection in Congestive Heart Failure (RICH) Trial
This is a prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled, multicenter, randomized clinical trial is to study the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning on contrast-associated acute kidney injury, functional capacity, and major adverse kidney events in in patients with congestive heart failure undergoing cardiac catheterization and/or percutaneous coronary intervention.
The PRO-FUTURE Project
The goal of this observational study is to learn about specific biomarkers of unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) in children undergoing surgical intervention for unilateral UPJO compared with controls. The main question it aims to answer are: Are Urinary single-cell and extracellular vesicles (EVs) screening useful to stage the intrarenal …
Feasibility Trial of Sodium-GLucose coTransporter 2 INhibitors in Pediatric Chronic KIDney DiSease
The goal of this study is to learn if a clinical trial of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) is possible in youth with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The investigators also plan to explore whether treatment with SGLT2i (Empagliflozin) helps improve risk factors for worsening kidney and heart disease. The main …
Acute Equol Supplementation and Vascular Function in Women With and Without CKD
The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is significantly elevated in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Notably, women with CKD commonly experience menstrual disturbances induced by CKD, which may contribute to impaired vascular function and elevated CVD risk. However, most of the literature in nephrology focuses on male patients, and …
Evaluating the Feasibility of a Piezoelectric Smart Sensor as an Aid to Help Clinicians Screen for the Development of Pneumonia in an At-risk Population
This proposed research aims to evaluate the feasibility of the piezoelectric sensor as an aid to help clinicians screen for the development of pneumonia in an at-risk population.
Algae Effects in Markers of Cardiovascular Risk and Gut Microbiome
The Western diet, rich in fat and sugar, contributes to cardiovascular risk and alters the body metabolism, specifically through the modulation of the microbiome. Microbiome is considered the "second genome", functioning as an endocrine-like organ. Gut microbiota-derived metabolites, namely trimethylamine- N-oxide and short-chain fatty acids have been associated with atherosclerosis, …
Tissue Oximetry's Measurement in Cytoreductive Surgery With Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy
Tissue oximetry obtained from peripheral muscle measures the state of tissue oxygenation of various organs and, as already widely described in the literature, can be used to measure the state of kidney's tissue oxygenation. However, there is no evidence in the existing scientific literature on the use of muscle tissue …
A Long-Term Follow-Up Study of Participants Exposed to REACT
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of up to two gelatin-hydrogel formulation REACT injections given 3 to 6 months apart and delivered percutaneously into same kidney on renal function in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Automated Insulin Delivery in Adults With Advanced Kidney Disease
Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure in the UK. Many people with diabetes and advanced kidney failure inject themselves with insulin and do finger-prick blood glucose tests. Managing diabetes in people with advanced kidney disease is hard, with fluctuating glucose levels and an increased risk of unsafe low …
