Post-transplant obesity is a common complication after kidney transplantation, largely attributed to recovery from uremia, increased appetite, sedentary lifestyle, and long-term corticosteroid exposure. Obesity in kidney transplant recipients increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM), and may contribute to graft injury through hyperfiltration-related mechanisms, potentially leading to …
The purpose of this study was to explore the accuracy of sentinel skin grafts from the same donor source in diagnosing renal allograft rejection, and to provide new ideas and options for the later clinical diagnosis of renal allograft rejection. Further, try to provide timing guidance for early immunization intervention.
The investigators project is based on: Assessment of bone architecture by high resolution peripheral scanner (HRpQCT) and bone densitometry (DEXA); The non-invasive detection of vascular calcifications (by abdominal CT scanner) and bone abnormalities associated with kidney transplantation, as well as the analysis of evolution over time; Longitudinal evaluation of nephrological …
Kidney transplantation (KT) is the best treatment modality available to date for patients with advanced kidney disease and the success of KT is dependent on maintaining a selective intricate balance between the risk of rejection and infections in KT recipients. BK virus is an important clinical infection affecting the post-transplant …
The purpose of this study is to study how CMVIG interacts with the body and to see if it might work to prevent kidney transplant patients from becoming infected with CMV.
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of velocity-based resistance training on renal function and metabolic health in kidney transplant recipients. Participants will be randomized into two groups performing resistance training at different execution velocities (maximal intended vs. submaximal controlled). The intervention will last 12 weeks and include …
Cardiovascular disease (for example, heart attack, stroke, heart failure) is the commonest complication of kidney failure. Kidney transplantation reduces cardiovascular risk but cardiovascular disease remains the commonest cause of death in patients following transplantation. Current strategies to assess patient's cardiovascular risk prior to kidney transplantation do not identify those at …
OK-TRANSPLANT 2 is a vanguard study for a large randomized, pragmatic, open-label trial. We will randomize participants with obesity, high-risk CKD/dialysis who are hoping for lose weight for the purpose of kidney transplant. Subjects will either be enrolled on a virtual weight management program or continue their usual care.
This proposal will take an important first step in the study of phage therapy for treatment of recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI) in female kidney transplant recipients (KTR); a common condition that is associated with increasing multidrug resistance, sickness, loss of kidney function and death. The investigators will conduct a …
This randomized controlled trial evaluates the efficacy of diode laser-assisted non-surgical periodontal therapy in kidney transplant recipients with periodontitis. Eighty participants will be allocated to two parallel groups: scaling and root planing (SRP) with adjunctive diode laser therapy or SRP alone. Clinical periodontal parameters, blood biomarkers, radiographic findings, and subgingival …
