Active clinical trials for "Renal Insufficiency, Chronic"

In type 2 diabetics, progression from chronic kidney disease to end stage renal disease may be slowed down by therapeutic interventions as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors use, control of high blood pressure and proteinuria, control of hyperglycaemia, protein intake restriction, smoking cessation. Correcting anaemia in these patients may prevent impairment of renal function. International guidelines indicate that haemoglobin level has to be of 110 g/L in these patients. We conduct an interventional randomized trial to evaluate the potential benefit of an haemoglobin level of 130 g/L in patients with type 2 diabetes and with a chronic kidney disease defined by a Cockcroft's creatinine clearance of 25 - 60 ml/min.

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common nosocomial infection in patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (MV). Antibiotic resistance poses an increasing threat due to the rise of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).Despite the increase in the frequency of MDRO colonisation and infection in dialysis patients, it is not known enough whether the risk of multi-drug resistant (MDR) pneumonia increases in mild-to-severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) patients not receiving dialysis. Therefore, in our study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the relationship between renal functions and MDR VAP risk and the specific microbial pattern.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia associated with excessive risk of ischemic stroke and heart failure as well as reduced life expectancy. On the other hand, chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) remains the main cause of morbidity and mortality in an aging population. Both disease entities share common risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes and obesity The purpose of the study is to investigate the hypothesis indicating lack of significant coronary lesions in AF vs. sinus rhythm (SR) patients.

This study evaluates the role of advanced US technology in assessing renal transplants as screening tools such as 3D Ultrasound, Ultrasound SWE, and MFI besides current ultrasound conventional metheds.

DISCOVER CKD is an international observational cohort study in patients with CKD, comprising both prospective and retrospective patient cohorts. The study does not attempt to test any specific a priori hypotheses, is largely descriptive, and utilises data collected only under conditions of routine clinical care.

Depersonalized multi-centered registry initiated to analyze dynamics of non-infectious diseases after SARS-CoV-2 infection in population of Eurasian adult patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical validity of a set of PROMIS pediatric person-reported outcome measures in patients with chronic kidney disease. The evaluation includes longitudinal assessments of how measures change in association with clinical changes.

This retrospective single-center analyzes the impact of switch of immunosuppressive regimen on renal function and transplant rejection rate in patients with lung transplant.

The purpose of the Patient and Provider Assessment of Lipid Management Registry (PALM) is to gain a better understanding of physicians' cholesterol medication prescribing practices, patient and physician attitudes and beliefs related to cholesterol management, and current utilization of cholesterol-lowering therapies given the new ACC/AHA guideline recommendations. The PALM Registry hopes to allow for the design of ways to improve cholesterol management and decrease the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the US.

This study aimed to investigate in a cohort with chronic kidney disease the longitudinal relationship between aortic stiffness and renal function and mortality.
