Eye-brain-kidney study in chronic kidney disease
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study is looking at how chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects the eyes, brain, and kidneys. It uses MRI scans to examine these organs, and aims to find connections that could help improve care for people with CKD.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 uses advanced MRI scans to better understand kidney disease and improve imaging techniques. It may help doctors diagnose and monitor kidney problems more effectively.
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 a new way to measure kidney function using harmless electrical signals instead of needles. It may help people with chronic kidney disease avoid frequent blood draws.
This study is a simple screening to check for early signs of chronic kidney disease. It aims to find kidney problems in people who are at higher risk due to age or other health conditions.
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
