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 …
Identification of Patients at Risk of CKD After AKI
The investigators will investigate whether new kidney biomarkers can identify patients who are at risk of chronic kidney disease after an episode of moderate / severe acute kidney injury in ICU.
Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation in Hemodialysis Patients With or Without Positive Antiphospholipid Antibodies
Hemodialysis (HD) is one of the most often used modalities of blood epuration in ends-stage renal diseases (ESRD) and requires the creation of a patent vascular access such as an arteriovenous fistula (AVF). Native AVF is associated with lower morbidity and mortality compared to hemocatheters. AVF need a maturation process …
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.
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 …
