Study of Danicopan in Participants With Normal Kidney Function and Participants With Kidney Dysfunction...
HealthyRenal DysfunctionThis was an open-label, nonrandomized, multi-center, single-dose, parallel group study to evaluate the effect of severe renal impairment (RI) on the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of danicopan (ACH-0144471) compared to demographically-matched healthy participants with normal renal function.
Music Interventions for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
Renal FailureFatigue is found to be one of the most persistent problems among patients in treatment with hemodialysis, and associated with impaired health-related quality of life. A few, non-randomized controlled trials have found positive effects on fatigue by offering pre-recorded music intra-dialytic, however, without conclusive results. So far, no studies have investigated the feasibility of integrating person-tailored live music interventions performed by professional musicians into a hemodialysis setting. This leaves a deficit in knowledge for intervention planning, understanding and effectiveness of live music on fatigue, wellbeing and feelings of meaningfulness in this group of patients. Methods: A pilot randomized controlled trial combined with qualitative methods. The data collection will involve recruitment of 24 patients from an outpatient clinic over a six-week period. The patients will be randomized into either an intervention group or a control group. Patients in the intervention group will be offered a 30-minute session of patient-tailored live music intervention per week for six consecutive weeks. Patients in the control group will receive standard care. Quantitative analysis on immediate post-dialysis fatigue (VAS), and long-term fatigue (MFI-20), anxiety, depression (HADS) and treatment satisfaction (VAS) will show the potential effectiveness of intervention. Qualitative analysis of informal-interviews (patients/staff), observational data (patients) and focus group interviews (staff/musicians) will explore an in-depth understanding of whether music will improve wellbeing and create feelings of meaningfulness among this group of patients as well as to assess feasibility acceptability among patients, musicians and staff. Perspectives: This trial will ensure a firm methodological approach for the development of a future definitive randomized controlled trial of music intervention for fatigue reduction and wellbeing among hemodialysis patients.

Renal Function During Pediatric Anesthesia
Renal FailureAnesthesiaIt is known that volatile anesthesia, such as sevoflurane, retain water and that this appears more pronounced in children. However, the mechanisms for this effect is unknown and it is not clear if the commonly used anesthetic propofol does the same. In this study the investigators want to compare the fluid and electrolyte conserving effects of sevoflurane and propofol in a pediatric setting and also investigate humoral changes induced by these anesthetics.
