Kidney problems in patients with liver cirrhosis
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how liver cirrhosis affects kidney health. If you have cirrhosis, researchers will check your kidney function and track changes over a short time to learn more about kidney problems in people with cirrhosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been diagnosed with liver cirrhosis (scarring of the liver).
- You cannot already have chronic kidney disease (reduced kidney function lasting at least 3 months before this study).
- You must agree to be in the study, or a family member must agree for you if you are unable to decide.

This study tests remote monitoring for people with liver cirrhosis. Instead of always coming to the clinic, you may use tools at home to track your health, which could make managing your condition easier.
This study looks at the bacteria in the gut of people with liver cirrhosis to better understand how they relate to the disease. By joining, you help researchers learn more about cirrhosis, which may lead to better care in the future.
This study looks at nutrition (diet and eating habits) in people with liver cirrhosis. It aims to understand how nutrition affects health in cirrhosis, which may help improve care and quality of life.
This study looks at how two measures—liver function (ALBI score) and muscle loss (sarcopenia)—help predict outcomes in people with cirrhosis who have episodes of confusion or drowsiness (hepatic encephalopathy). If you qualify, researchers will track your health to see how these factors affect recovery and complications.
This study looks at how often people with long-term liver disease also have kidney problems when they are admitted to the hospital. Researchers will check your kidney function with blood tests, and you'll pause certain water pills for 3 days before the tests.
This study checks new blood and urine tests to predict who with advanced liver scarring (cirrhosis) will develop hepatorenal syndrome, a serious kidney problem. The results may help doctors spot risk earlier, especially for people being referred for a liver transplant.
