Sensor-based Congestion ALert for Events in Peritoneal Dialysis (SCALE-PD)
To explore the use of the Bodyport Cardiac Scale in predicting worsening of events due to fluid overload in patients with kidney disease on peritoneal dialysis.
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 …
The Application of Contrast-enhanced Ultrasound in Acute Kidney Injury in ICU
The goal of this study is to quantitatively assess renal microcirculation changes by contrast-enhanced ultrasound and to obtain systemic hemodynamic information by ultrasound Doppler at the same time, to analyze the relationship between renal microcirculation changes and systemic hemodynamic changes, and to explore its predictive value in renal function recovery …
VExUS Combined With CVP to Predict Clinical Outcomes in Sepsis Participants
Introduction Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host immune response to infection, and it is a common critical condition in the ICU. Early and timely fluid resuscitation is the cornerstone of sepsis treatment. However, excessive fluid loading can lead to interstitial edema and iatrogenic organ damage, …
Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System In Septic Kids
Prospective observational cohort study; pediatric sepsis vs. healthy pediatric subjects and pediatric sepsis with acute kidney injury (AKI) vs without AKI. Blood samples and renal ultrasound will be collected on sequential days for septic subject and one time for the healthy patients. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) with be run on …
Molecular Analysis of Diabetic Kidney Disease Biopsies
Despite decades of research, the pathogenesis of human diabetic kidney disease remains largely unclear. Our goal is to use archived human kidney biopsy tissue from patients with and with diabetic nephropathy to identify new molecules that drive and/or protect against disease progression. We will use RNA sequencing to identify transcriptomic …
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 …
PErfusion QUality ODds
Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is a frequent complication after cardiac operations with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) use. Its frequency varies depending on the severity grade. There are different "static" predictive scores for the CSA-AKI based on the patient and surgery-associated parameters. Recently, in our Institution was developed a predictive …
