This study tests a special cold storage solution and machine to keep donated kidneys healthy before they are transplanted. It may help the kidneys work better after surgery.
This study follows people who are planning kidney donation or a kidney transplant to better understand how kidney function changes over time. It may help researchers predict risk and improve care by studying health markers in detail.
This study tests whether a structured diet and exercise program can lower heart disease risk in kidney transplant recipients. If you've had a stable transplant for at least 6 months and up to 10 years, you may be able to join.
This study asks whether the amount of fat around your kidney before donation can predict how your remaining kidney will do afterward. It follows living donors to see if that fat measurement relates to long-term kidney health.
This study tests a diet and exercise program for people who recently received a kidney transplant. It aims to see if the program is safe and helpful for improving health after transplant.
This trial tests a pre-operative exercise program for people donating or receiving a kidney from a live donor. It aims to see if exercise before surgery can improve recovery and outcomes.
