AKI Risk Factors Analysis After Intentional Hypotensive Anesthesia
This project investigates intentionally hypotensive management such as NTG (nitroglycerin) or NTG+Trandate during general anesthesia in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. Throughout the entire surgical procedure, blood biochemical and urine monitoring will be conducted. Serum creatinine (Cr) levels, urine analysis, and perioperative monitoring will be utilized as indicators for assessing renal …
Investigations Into Sepsis-associated Acute Kidney Injury
In this study the investigators would like to study systemic and regional disturbances in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury and in healthy controls undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Specifically study metabolic, hemodynamic and oxygen transport variables.
Proteinuria and Renal Perfusion in Renal Transplant Recipients
Cardiovascular disease remains one of the major cause of mortality in renal transplant recipients, with the rate of cardiac death 10-times higher than that of the general population. An independent association between post-transplant proteinuria and cardiovascular risk has been previously reported. Diseased native kidneys with residual urine output or the …
Continuous Glucose Monitoring in People With Diabetes on Dialysis
Continuous glucose monitoring is a sensor, which monitors glucose levels continuously throughout the day. In people with diabetes, especially those treated with insulin, this sensor helps guide the amount of treatment (such as insulin) required to maintain glucose within target. In dialysis, the glucose levels and insulin needs can change …
Precision Medicine in Cardiovascular Surgery Associated Acute Kidney Injury
The goal of this prospective observational study is to define a risk profile for cardiovascular surgery associated acute kidney injury (AKI), using clinical patient characteristics, operation parameters as well as blood and urine laboratory values. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does a combination of the factors …
Partners Calciphylaxis Biobank
Calciphylaxis, a vascular calcification disorder, is a rare and serious disorder characterized by calcification of dermal arterioles. There are significant gaps in the understanding of the pathophysiology and risk factors for calciphylaxis. At present, there is no effective treatment. Uncertain pathobiology, rare incidence and lack of collaborative approach have been …
Comparing N-terminal-proB-type Natriuretic Peptide With Other Criteria in Pleural Fluid Analysis
To assess the discriminative properties of pleural fluid (PF) N-terminal-proB-type-natriuretic-peptide (NTproBNP) levels in identifying heart failure (HF)-associated pleural effusions (PE).
Investigation of the Validity, Reliability, and Responsiveness of BETY-BQ in Chronic Kidney Disease, on Dialysis, and Kidney Transplantation
A review of the literature has shown that Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is strongly associated with an increasing degree of psychosocial impact, such as depression and anxiety and a decrease in quality of life. Therefore, while determining the psychosocial aspects of the disease gains importance, it is reported that determining …
Clinical Validation of the RENISCHEM L-FABP POC Assay
This study will involve measurement of levels of a novel urinary biomarker of renal ischemia, L-FABP. The purpose of the study is to perform a clinical validation of the ability of L-FABP measurements in urine using the RENISCHEM L-FABP POC Test to predict the development of AKI within 2 days …
Tulane Abdominal Transplant Institute (TATI) of Solid Organ Transplantation of HIV-Positive Recipients From HIV-Positive Donors
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), published Final Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Organ Policy Equity (HOPE) Act Safeguards and Research Criteria for Transplantation of Organs Infected With HIV. All such transplants must occur under an institutional review board (IRB) approved …
