Optical Coherence Tomography And NEphropathy: The OCTANE Study
Patients with high blood pressure (hypertension) and chronic kidney disease are at an increased risk of developing heart disease and strokes. Part of this risk is due to changes in the structure and function of the blood vessels throughout the body. It is thought that reducing high blood pressure and …
Knowledge of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
The aim of this study is to assess knowledge of cardiovascular risk factors, physical activity levels, health literacy and perceptions of benefits and barriers to exercise in patients with chronic kidney disease and compare them with healthy people.
Chronical Illness-related Limitations of the Ability to Cope With Rising Temperatures, Third Wave
The CLIMATE-III Observational Study examines to what extent chronically ill patients experience adverse health effects because of heat and whether the patients' specific health behavior, somatosensory amplification, risk and benefit perception, self-efficacy, health literacy, and the degree of urbanisation of the patients' administration district are associated with these effects. Study …
Acoustic Analysis of VA Sounds
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a growing global health problem, strictly connected with progressive ageing population and longer survival of patients living on renal replacement therapy. The majority of ESRD patients is on hemodialysis (HD) treatment. A successful HD procedure requires a functioning vascular access (VA) to provide safe and …

Duke APOL1 Research Biorepository
The Duke ApoL1 Nephropathy Biorepository aims to address needs within non-diabetic kidney failure research by utilizing existing and, when necessary, developing new infrastructure to support the consent of patients and the collection of dedicated samples for ApoL1 Nephropathy biorepository. The mutations in ApoL1 gene that are strongly associated with kidney …
Percutaneous Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Insertion (PREDICT)
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the most frequent modality of home dialysis for patients with kidney failure. Most PD catheters are placed using a laparoscopic technique. This approach requires the availability of a qualified surgeon, time in the operating theater and general anaesthesia for the patient. Thus, the laparoscopic technique is …
Emotion and Cognitive Function and Brain Imaging Change in HD Patients
Observe the influence of entering hemodialysis treatment on the emotional and cognitive functions of ESRD patients. Observe the influence of entering hemodialysis treatment on the brain structure imaging of ESRD patients. Analyze and study the relevant clinical risk factors of the above-mentioned effects, and find targets for therapeutic intervention.
Preference of Life-Sustaining Treatment Among Patients With End Stage Renal Disease
Although patients with kidney disease can rely on dialysis to prolong their lives, the complexity of the disease, the variability of the course of the disease, and the uncertainty of the prognosis often delay the discussion of issues at the end of life, and the deterioration of the condition often …
