Chronic Kidney Disease at Northeast Taiwan: Biomarker and Multidisciplinary Care

Chronic Kidney Disease

CKD is a global endemic disease with increased comorbidities and mortality. The prevalence and the incidence of the end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are extremely high in Taiwan. Early diagnosis of disease and proper management remain challenging. The aims of this study are: Explore risk factors associated with CKD Establish multidisciplinary care model for CKD patients Development cost-effective clinical care pathway for CKD Provide bio-specimen repository for future study

Targeted Education ApproaCH to Improve Peritoneal Dialysis Outcomes Trial

Kidney DiseaseChronic3 more

For many patients peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the preferred form of dialysis to treat kidney disease as it provides greater flexibility and the ability to dialyse at home. However, PD use in Australia has been decreasing over the last 10 years. A big reason for this drop is the risk of infection. The best way to prevent PD related infections is to make sure that patients have good training in PD techniques. The researchers of this study have developed TEACH-PD, a new education package for training both PD nurses and PD patients. The aim of this study is to find out whether TEACH-PD training reduces the number of PD related infections.

Continuing or Discontinuing ACE/ARBs in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Undergoing Coronary...

Contrast-induced NephropathyChronic Kidney Diseases1 more

Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a well-known possible complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with an incidence varies from 3.3% to 14.5% in patients undergoing PCI. Many previous randomized and non-randomized studies have shown very conflicting results regarding the use of ACE-Is prior to coronary angiography, and whether it decreases or increases the risk of CIN. The importance of this study is to help find an acceptable and reliable answer for the use of ACE-I/ARBs prior to cardiac catheterization. This research aims to study the effect of withholding ACE-Is or ARBs on the incidence of contrast induced nephropathy in patients undergoing coronary angiography who have chronic kidney disease (GFR<60 ml/min/1.73 m2) and to help build evidence-based data and guidelines on the safety of continuing or withholding ACE-I/ARBs pre contrast administration.

Zibotentan and Dapagliflozin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Elevated Albuminuria

Chronic Kidney Diseases

The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that the effects on albuminuria of combination treatment with the endothelin receptor antagonist zibotentan and SGLT2i dapagliflozin are complimentary and additive while the fluid retaining effects of zibotentan can be mitigated by dapagliflozin.

Efficacy and Safety of Cholestyramine in the Management of Hyperphosphatemia in Adult Hemodialysis...

Chronic Kidney DiseasesHemodialysis Complication1 more

The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cholestyramine in the management of hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis patients. Colestilan is a non-metallic phosphate binder that acts as an anion-exchange resin. Colestilan itself is not absorbed after oral administration, and it is able to bind dietary phosphate within the gastrointestinal tract and thus prevent absorption of the mineral. Initial, Phase II, studies showed that it reduces serum phosphorus levels in dialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia without affecting serum calcium levels. There are no studies conducted about the feasibility and efficacy of cholestyramine as an oral phosphate binder in hemodialysis patients. Relying on the efficacy and safety of bile acid sequestrants such as colestilan and colestipol in the management of hyperphosphatemia and hypercholesterolemia in hemodialysis patients, cholestyramine is selected to be studied in hemodialysis patients. A total of 80 patients will be recruited and divided into 2 groups: - Group 1: (cholestyramine 12 gram), 40 patients will take a dose of cholestyramine 4-gram sachet in 150-200 ml water or juice three times daily within meals as an add on therapy with standard therapy calcium-based phosphate binder (Calcimate). Group 2: Control group, 40 patients will take only the standard therapy calcium-based phosphate binder (Calcimate). Time of the trial will be two months (8 weeks trial period) Baseline characteristics: The following data will be collected from all patients at baseline Age, sex, weight, duration of ESRD and hemodialysis comorbidities. Dialysis duration, serum phosphate level, serum calcium level, iPTH, BUN, Cr (mg/d L), Albumin (mg/d L), Hb (g m%), renal function test, liver function test, blood glucose level, TG, total cholesterol level, LDL-C, HDL.C. After the end of trial, we will examine if cholestyramine has a significant efficacy on reducing serum phosphate level in adult hemodialysis patients.

Decision Support for Detection of Chronic Kidney Disease in Type II Diabetes Mellitus

Chronic Kidney DiseasesType2Diabetes

While data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) estimate that 36.9% of patients with diabetes have CKD, only approximately 10% of patients are aware of their kidney disease. In its 2020 Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes, the ADA recommends that all patients with type II diabetes (T2DM) undergo annual measurement of urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). The National Kidney Foundation (NKF) has also proposed an update to the requirements for assessment of adults with diabetes including both an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and uACR. The goal of accurately identifying patients with T2DM and CKD is to help providers intervene at an earlier stage of kidney impairment, improve renal outcomes, and reduce associated healthcare costs. Failure to adopt these guideline recommendations has widespread implications, including underestimation of the burden of CKD in the T2DM population, delays in diagnosis of renal impairment, and ultimately, underutilization of therapies that could improve clinical outcomes. This single-center, 400-patient, randomized controlled trial will assess the impact of an EPIC Best Practice Advisory (BPA; alert-based CDS tool) on guideline-directed assessment for CKD using UACR in patients with T2DM who have not had a UACR in the past year.

Enhancing the Natriuretic Peptide System in HFpEF

Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection FractionChronic Kidney Diseases

The purpose of this study is to look at the differences in how individuals with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in the presence of chronic kidney disease (HFpEF-CKD) and exercise induced dyspnea without objective findings of fluid retention (HFpEF-EI) bodies function using drugs Sacubatril/Valsartan (Entresto) and MANP.
