NCT05462392
A single-blinded, prospective randomized parallel controlled clinical trial is designed and will be conducted from July 2022 to November 2023 (anticipated). One hundred and thirty-six patients (anticipated) with renal cancer or bladder cancer or prostate cancer will be enrolled in this study. Those patients will be enrolled by two hospital centers and the patients will be randomly divided into the Micro Hand S surgical robot group and the da Vinci surgical robot group. Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy, radical cystectomy, and radical prostatectomy will be conducted using the Micro Hand S robot or the da Vinci robot. The success rate of operation, assembly time, operation time, intraoperative hemorrhage, continence rate (if applicable), postoperative pain, comprehensive complication index, resident time and surgeon satisfaction were recorded. The aim of the study is to determine whether the newly developed Chinese Micro Hand S surgical robot results in non-inferiority outcomes in urological surgeries compared with the prevalent da Vinci robot.
NCT05967312
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a long-term condition in which the ability of the kidneys to function gets worse over time. People with CKD often do not have associated symptoms, meaning that it is possible for the condition to go undetected until the condition worsens and symptoms develop. The disease is more common in people with diabetes and screening by means of urine and blood tests is recommended in this population by The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) Guidelines in order to detect disease earlier. However, screening rates amongst these patients are low and the dilemma is therefore how to increase the rate of screening in those who are ordinarily non-compliant. It is thought that facilitating patients in being able to perform The Minuteful Kidney Test (an at home test using smartphone technology) may increase the amount of people that undertake the test and thus improving early detection. 348 GP practices will be randomised in clusters, meaning that the GP practice will be randomised rather than the individual patient. This type of trial design is common in public health research as it is particularly suited to testing differences in approaches towards patient care. Each cluster will consist of on average 470 patients with diabetes. Each cluster will be allocated at random to either issuing The Minuteful Kidney Test (plus usual care) or usual care alone. This allocation will be applicable to each patient within that cluster. The evaluation will tell us whether administering this test increases the diagnosis rates of CKD as well as the frequency at which the test is performed in patients with diabetes. The results of the evaluation will determine whether The Minuteful Kidney Test should be used instead of or alongside existing blood and urine tests in this particular group of patients.
NCT05441020

NCT04788394
Covid-19 is an important human and animal pathogen, it mostly causes respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms. Clinical features range from a common cold to severe diseases such as severe acute respiratory distress syndrome, bronchitis, pneumonia, multi-organ failure, and even death. It seems to be less commonly affecting children and to cause fewer symptoms and less severe disease in this age group compared with adults. Clinicians have observed many extrapulmonary manifestations of COVID-19, as hematologic, cardiovascular, renal, gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary, endocrinologic, neurologic, ophthalmologic, and dermatologic systems can all be affected. This retrospective study that will be conducted at Hamad General Hospital in Qatar, aims to determine the renal involvement in all pediatric patients who were hospitalized with COVID-19 from March 1, 2020, to January 1, 2021.

NCT04523220
In this study researchers want to learn about the safety of drug Osocimab at lower-dose and higher-doses in adult participants with kidney disease undergoing regular dialysis (a procedure that uses a machine to get rid of toxins and extra fluids in the blood). Patients with kidney disease undergoing regular dialysis are at high risk for heart and blood vessels diseases. Osocimab is a human monoclonal antibody under development for the prevention of events caused by blood clots like heart attack, stroke and death due to heart or blood vessels diseases. It works by binding to and blocking the activated form of clotting factor XI which increases the formation and stability of clots. Researchers also want to find out how drug Osocimab works in human body and how the body absorbs, distributes and excretes the drug. Participants in this study will receive monthly injection of either Osocimab at a lower-dose or higher-dose or placebo (a placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it). Both Osocimab and placebo will be injected into the tissue under the skin of the belly. Observation for each participant will last up to 23 months. Blood samples will be collected from the participants to monitor the safety and measure the blood level of the study drug.
NCT04132375
The investigational medicinal product (IMP), INM004, proposes to neutralize the toxin in the bloodstream to prevent the interaction of the Stx with the specific receptor, by means of a polyclonal antibody to be administered upon the appearance of symptoms (bloody diarrhea) and diagnosis of infection by STEC, thereby preventing the action of the toxin in the body. Thus, the initial hypothesis for examination is for the prevention of the full expression of HUS, based upon presumptive clinical, biochemical, and other biological evidence suggesting a risk of HUS at the time of treatment application. The polyclonal antibody (F(ab')2 fragment) is obtained by processing the serum of equine animals previously immunized against engineered Stx1B and Stx2B immunogens. INM004 could be administered at the earlier stages of STEC disease since subjects with STEC diarrhea are more likely to benefit from Stx neutralizing antibodies before the development of extra-intestinal manifestations and HUS. Neutralizing equine anti-Stx F(ab')2 antibodies (INM004) have the objective of preventing the development of HUS by blocking the circulating toxins in patients infected with STEC. Therefore, INM004 may be used in patients with a clinical manifestation of bloody diarrhea and a positive Stx result in feces. Early interruption of the Stx mediated cascade is expected to prevent the development of HUS, alleviate the severity of the illness, the rate of complications and the incidence/duration of hospitalizations. Therefore, patients in the early phases of the disease will be targeted in this study, ie, children who seek medical care due to diarrhea associated with STEC infection before HUS development.
NCT05508009
This is a single center, non-randomized, non-controlled open-label phase 1b/2a trial of performing sequential αβdepleted-HSCT and KT in patients requiring KT to prevent kidney rejection post-KT, in the absence of any post-KT immunosuppression, to abrogate the need for lifelong immunosuppression, the risk of chronic rejection and, ultimately, the need for repeated transplantation.
NCT05946122
Offering renal protection in systemic inflammatory response syndrome by atorvastatin
NCT05941091
Haemodialysis (HD) is the most commonly used method among renal replacement therapy options in patients with End Stage Renal Failure. Although one of the most important factors affecting the success of this treatment is compliance with fluid restriction, the rates of non-compliance with fluid control vary between 10-74%. It is understood from the literature that fluid restriction is one of the most difficult areas in compliance with HD treatment. Interdialytic weight gain is the most widely accepted method to assess compliance with fluid control by measuring the amount of fluid accumulated in the body. Thus, studies on this subject have shown that excessive interdialytic weight gain is a common problem in HD patients. It is known that excessive interdialytic weight gain increases the risk of morbidity and mortality in HD patients. The main factors causing interdialytic weight gain are fluid and salt intake between two HD sessions is appears to be. Therefore, it is stated that the easiest solution to control excessive interdialytic weight gain is to reduce fluid and salt intake. However, studies have reported that HD patients have difficulty in adapting to a salt-restricted diet, and in this case, they increase their fluid consumption. Therefore, it is of vital importance that public health nurses carry out interventions to ensure HD patients' compliance with fluid and salt control. In the literature review conducted with this perspective, studies were encountered in which results were obtained that m-health interventions provided a decrease in interdialytic weight gain averages and sodium intake. In this direction, a HafifMod programme based on the use of mobile health technologies was created. The aim of the study is to examine the effect of the LightMod programme for fluid and salt control guided by the Health Belief Model on interdialytic weight gain in routine haemodialysis patients.
NCT05927285
During cardiorenal syndrome type 1 (CRS1) vascular congestion is the major contributor to worsening renal function, but promoting decongestion with routine clinical evaluation is ineffective in some patients. The venous evaluation by ultrasound (VExUS) may optimize its management when evaluating for improvement in kidney function and other metrics related to decongestion.

NCT04170309
In this observational study, data from patients treated with the antibiotic ceftobiprole in the past will be collected. The sponsor of the study is Correvio International Sárl, based in Switzerland. Correvio has committed to the health authorities to obtain further information on possible side effects especially in patients suffering from impaired liver or renal function or immune system deficiency and compare these effects to the ones observed in patients without these health problems. Patient data are collected from historic patient charts, patients will not be treated for the purpose of this data collection. All efforts are being made to capture the data of all patients who meet the inclusion criteria and have received at least one dose of ceftobiprole since this drug was first prescribed at the site.
NCT05931926
The purpose of this study is to test the Fluispotter® technology: A novel system for collection of serial venous samples, which may overcome some of the problems associated with repeated sampling or 20-hour collection of blood samples using standard procedures. The Fluispotter® is the first fully automated, wearable device for obtaining serial blood samples from humans. It is designed to function without operator intervention. The wearable device and - when in place - painless sampling allow sampling during different situations e.g., during sleep, work, play or exercise - whatever the sampling situation requires, including sampling not possible today using wet samples e.g. during everyday activities. Further, it reduces the number of man-hours needed for serial sampling, and minimizes the risks of sample loss, wrong timing, misidentification and contamination. The primary purpose of this investigator-initiated study is to assess the feasibility, including benefits and harms, of the Fluispotter®, a novel method for serial blood sampling, versus standard blood sampling. The planned setting is a test of the Fluispotter® is a 20-hour period in healthy adults and in adults with secondary adrenal insufficiency due to pituitary disease.

Vifor International Ltd. is seeking real-world evidence (RWE) to better understand the epidemiology, patient characteristics, and management of CKD-aP in the real-world clinical setting.
NCT03459807
Blood pressure may be one of the most important modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease in patients with end-stage-renal-disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Although a systolic blood pressure \<140 mmHg treatment target has been recommended, there remains uncertainty on which blood pressure should be targeted, more specifically that measured in the dialysis unit or at home. Observational studies have reported a paradoxical U-shaped associated with dialysis unit (pre-dialysis) systolic blood pressure and cardiovascular events and death (where blood pressure below 140 mmHg is actually linked with poor outcomes). Conversely, the same studies have reported a linear association between higher home systolic blood pressure and worse clinical outcomes, where blood pressure below 140 mmHg is associated with better outcomes. This pilot clinical trial aims to address this important question.
