CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) Stage 5D

This is a phase II, proof-of-concept, placebo-controlled, double-blind, cross-over randomized clinical trial, assessing the effect of canagliflozin on peritoneal membrane function in patients on PD. The primary aim of this trial is to determine the short-term effects of canagliflozin, an SGLT-2 inhibitor, on glucose absorption by the peritoneal membrane and on ultrafiltration, as assessed by a standardized peritoneal equilibrium test. The secondary aims are to determine the effect of canagliflozin on solute clearance and on effluent biomarkers of inflammation, angiogenesis, and fibrosis at 26 weeks. We hypothesize that canagliflozin will prevent glucose absorption by the peritoneal membrane, as compared with placebo, and will attenuate the development of inflammation, angiogenesis, and fibrosis of the peritoneal membrane, as assessed by relevant biomarkers in the dialysate.

The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the intraoperative use of neuromuscular blocking agents and other anesthetic drugs between tubeless spontaneous ventilation anesthesia (TSVA) and conventional endotracheal intubation (ETT) anesthesia in kidney transplantation. The study will also evaluate the safety, stability, and postoperative recovery associated with TSVA. This trial is designed to address the following questions: * Does TSVA reduce the intraoperative requirement for neuromuscular blocking agents and other anesthetic medications? * Does TSVA improve postoperative outcomes in kidney transplant recipients? * How do the intraoperative safety and stability of TSVA compare with those of ETT anesthesia? Researchers will compare anesthetic drug consumption, intraoperative anesthetic performance, and postoperative recovery outcomes between the TSVA and ETT groups to determine whether TSVA can decrease anesthetic drug use and enhance patient recovery. Participants will: * Undergo a complete preoperative assessment * Receive kidney transplantation under TSVA or ETT anesthesia, with relevant intraoperative data recorded * Receive tubeless postoperative management, with documentation of pain scores, complications, and recovery of graft function * Be followed throughout their lifetime after discharge, providing long-term follow-up information

Use of sorption technologies in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis with inflammatory syndrome and clinical manifestations of uremia

People with kidney failure requiring dialysis have a much higher risk of developing cardiovascular (CV) disease compared with the general population. A cardiac cause accounts for 58% of all deaths in patients with end stage kidney disease (ESKD). At the same time, this population has increased risks of clotting as well as bleeding episodes. While aspirin is known to reduce cardiovascular complications in the general population, evidence to support the use of aspirin in people with ESKD receiving dialysis therapy is currently lacking. The ASPIrin to Reduce Event in Dialysis (ASPIRED) trial will test whether aspirin use in dialysis patients safely improves outcomes compared with no aspirin use.

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of polymethylmethacrylate dialysis membranes use on the intensity of pruritus in patients with CKD stage 5D receiving maintenance hemodialysis. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the use of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) membranes reduce the intensity of pruritus in dialysis patients? Researchers will compare PMMA membranes to standard polysulfone-based membranes to see if PMMA works to reduce moderate-to-severe pruritis and pruritis-related quality of life. Participants will: * receive maintenance hemodialysis with PMMA or polysulfone membranes for 2 months; * fill in questionnaires about intensity of pruritis and its impact on daily life.

Pro-Kids is a multi-center, double-blind, randomized and placebo-controlled intervention study in children with chronic kidney disease. The investigators address the effect of a dietary food supplementation of propionic acid on the immune system and the function of the intestinal barrier in CKD patients treated with hemodialysis.

This study evaluates the role of genetic in the development and progression of different nephropaties with particular attention to: * AKI * CKD * Hypertension * ADPKD * CKD-MBD * Patients with decompensated heart failure undergoing either medical or surgery therapy * Patients with hematologic cancer exposed to chemotherapeutic agents or undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation * glomerular diseases
