miRNA in Septic Acute Kidney Injury
Acute kidney injury is a common and serious complication of sepsis and septic shock, which may be associated with a worse outcome of the patient's condition. The exact pathophysiological mechanism of septic acute kidney injury remains a challenge. One of the possible causes appears to be endothelial dysfunction and mitochondrial …
Monocytes in Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease
This is a cross-sectional study in patients with Type 1 diabetes (TID) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) to test if time in range (TIR) affects the degree of hyperglycemia required for monocyte activation, podocyte injury, and assess if monocyte activation is attenuated by glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) agonist treatment ex vivo.
Detection of Plasma DNA of Renal Origin in Kidney Transplant Patients
Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) has been proposed as a potential diagnostic tool to monitor the rejection status of the kidney transplant. It has been suggested that dd-cfDNA is increasing in the blood of kidney transplant patient presenting a graft rejection. In this project, investigators proposed a different approach to predict …
Histopathological Analysis of Renal Biopsies With Dynamic Full-field Optical Coherence Tomography, a Comparison to Conventional Histopathological Findings for the Diagnosis of Either Acute Kidney Injury or Chronic Kidney Disease in Routine Practices (NEPHROCT)
Kidney biopsy play a key role for the investigation of either acute kidney injury or chronic kidney disease. Despite possible complications due to the invasive nature of the biopsy, such procedure is still essential in a number of clinical situations to improve the diagnosis specificity of kidney disease, better inform …
Biomonitoring of Internal Exposure to MNPLs, and Its Effects, in Blood of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)
Micro and nanoplastics (MNPLs) effects on human heath is still preliminary. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) participants, specially does patients submitted to hemodialysis, are a population high exposed to plastics. The objective of our research is to be able to detect MNPLs on biological fluids of hemodialysis patients as well as …
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 …
Application of Functional Renal MRI to Improve Assessment of Chronic Kidney Disease
Research question: Can multiparametric renal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provide structural and functional assessment of the kidneys to deliver prognostic information and guide treatment options in chronic kidney disease (CKD)? Aims and objectives: To establish a multiparametric renal MRI protocol in CKD cohorts. To use multiparametric MRI to characterise people …
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.
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 …
DYNAMic Renal Assessment: NOvel Methods to Assess KIDNEY Functional Reserve
This is a feasibility study to assess new, more practical ways of measuring renal reserve.
