Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C During Pregnancy
This is a multicenter, single arm study of Sofosbuvir/Velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) for treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection during pregnancy. Treatment will be initiated during the second or third trimester in approximately 100 pregnant people. Maternal participants will take one SOF/VEL tablet once daily for 12 weeks (84 days) and followed …
Predictors of Risk in Left Ventricular Non-Compaction
The goal of this study is to learn more about the risk factors associated with left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) and the predictors of adverse outcomes associated with LVNC. The main questions this study aims to answer are as follows. Are there any genetic mutations that impact the risk of LVNC …
Fluid Intake After Hemodialysis
Interdialytic weight gain determines how much fluid (ultrafiltration) has to be removed during each hemodialysis session. High ultrafiltration volumes stress the organism and lead to a higher risk of death. Thirst is the main driving factor of interdialytic weight gain, and thirst is mainly driven by salt intake, molecules that …
Sodium Deposition in Soft Tissues of Patients With Kidney Disease
Sodium (Na+) hemostasis is abnormal in CKD patients, and this element can be deposited in the skin, muscle, and skeleton - to cope with long term sodium loading. It is known that sodium stored in this non-osmotically active way, is profoundly inflammatory. Furthermore, inflammation has been associated with several uremic …
A Prospective Study on the Long-Term Vascular Burden in Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura Patients
A prospective cohort study of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome patients who have presented with their acute episode and are in remission within the last 30 days. They will be followed for 12 months from the time of their initial scan, followed by a long-term follow up …
Atypical Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome (aHUS) Registry
Post-marketing safety data on patients treated and untreated with eculizumab or ravulizumab.
Cisplatin Induced Kidney Toxicity
Cisplatin (CisP) is a chemotherapeutic agent used to treat head and neck and lung cancer in adults and over 15 different pediatric cancers. Despite its known toxicity, CisP is still widely used as a first line chemotherapy as it is so effective. Nephrotoxicity is one of the most common adverse …
Investigating Genetic Status in Patients Presenting to Clinic
The causes of neurodegenerative dementias such as Frontotemporal Dementia, Lewy Body Disease and Alzheimer's disease are still largely unknown. While the contribution of some genetic mutations and polymorphisms is associated with autosomal dominant patterns of inheritance of these dementias, in many cases, the specific causative mutation in these families is …
Gait as Predictor of Dementia and Falls. The Gait and Brain Cohort Study
Motor slowing and cognitive slowing are more prevalent as we age. Importantly, the presence of both in an older person increases their risk of having dementia by ten times. Currently, there are no clinically meaningful predictors of progression to dementia in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The main hypothesis …
Cardiac Sarcoidosis Multi-Center Prospective Cohort
Recent data has shown that sarcoidosis, presenting initially with cardiac manifestations (CS) of either conduction system disease or cardiomyopathy and sustained VT, is not uncommon. A Canadian physician survey found that most physicians do not investigate for CS as a possibility in these situations. Thus many patients with clinically important …
