Lower blood pressure and cholesterol targets for advanced kidney disease
This trial tests whether keeping blood pressure and cholesterol at lower-than-usual levels can help slow the decline of kidney function in people with advanced chronic kidney disease. If you have moderately to severely reduced kidney function and meet certain blood pressure and cholesterol criteria, you may be able to join.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06323018Recruiting
Remote preconditioning for cemented hip replacement recovery

This trial studies kidney biopsy samples to learn how certain kidney cells repair damage. It may help find new treatments for kidney diseases.
FlorenceAges 1 month–17 years - NCT06325488Recruiting
Kidney Health Study in Fabry Disease
This study uses MRI scans to look at how Fabry disease affects the kidneys, including scarring, swelling, and oxygen levels. It may help researchers understand kidney problems better and find new ways to monitor the disease.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06325644Recruiting
Ketogenic diet for polycystic kidney disease
This study tests whether a ketogenic diet can slow the progression of polycystic kidney disease in adults who are at risk for rapid decline. You'll follow a carefully planned low-carb, high-fat diet to see if it helps protect your kidneys.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT06325618Recruiting
Studying lymphedema and blood vessels in Turner syndrome
This study looks at swelling (lymphedema), inflammation, and blood vessels in women with Turner syndrome. It uses MRI scans to understand these issues better.
