Fat around kidneys in chronic kidney disease with fatty liver
Part of Digestive system, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study is looking at the relationship between the fat around your kidneys and chronic kidney disease, especially if you also have a fatty liver. It may help doctors understand how these conditions are connected.

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.
This study tests whether a new type of MRI scan can better detect and measure liver disease, including fatty liver and scarring, compared to standard CT scans. If you have chronic liver disease, this study may help improve how we diagnose and track it.
This study looks at risk factors and body “omics” information (like blood/tissue patterns) to better understand chronic kidney disease caused by metabolic diseases. It may help researchers find better ways to predict or manage kidney problems in people with these conditions.
This study is looking at how common a certain type of fatty liver disease is in people who have had a heart attack or unstable angina. If you've recently had a heart event and a coronary angiogram, the study will check your liver health to see if there is a link.
This trial looks at how common fatty liver disease is in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It may help doctors understand the link between kidney and liver health.
This study looks at whether the fat around your kidneys can help predict kidney problems in people with type 2 diabetes. It involves a simple ultrasound to measure that fat.
