Curcumin for inflammation in dialysis patients
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This trial tests whether curcumin, a natural compound found in turmeric, can reduce inflammation in people receiving hemodialysis. If you are on dialysis and already take turmeric or antioxidant supplements, this study may help show if curcumin has extra benefits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a therapy that absorbs inflammatory substances from the blood during dialysis. It may help people on dialysis who have ongoing inflammation, shown by high IL-6 or CRP levels.
This study tests whether taking a special mix of friendly bacteria and prebiotics (called synbiotics) can help improve gut health in people on hemodialysis. It may reduce inflammation and other complications related to kidney disease.
This study tests whether taking probiotics (good bacteria) or synbiotics (probiotics plus fiber) can improve the nutritional health of people on dialysis. It may help those who struggle with nutrition while waiting for a kidney transplant.
This study tests whether taking a very high dose of vitamin D3 can reduce moderate to severe chronic pain in people on hemodialysis. It may help by improving vitamin D-related pathways that could affect pain, but you must also meet specific health and testing requirements.
This trial tests whether taking a daily synbiotic supplement (a mix of probiotics and prebiotics) can help reduce inflammation in people with chronic kidney disease who are not yet on dialysis. It aims to see if this approach can improve their health and potentially slow disease progression.
This trial tests whether a special blend of probiotics and prebiotics (called a synbiotic) can improve gut health and reduce harmful waste products in the blood for people on hemodialysis.
