Heart Disease Screening in Kidney Disease Patients
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at heart imaging scans in people with kidney disease to find early signs of heart problems. Researchers will use special imaging already planned as part of your normal care to see if it can help identify who needs heart treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You live in France and have French social security coverage

This study looks at a protein called lipoprotein(a) in the blood to see if it predicts heart problems in people with stage 4 chronic kidney disease who are not on dialysis or transplant. Following participants for 18 months, it aims to find ways to better manage heart risk.
This study looks at how well we can predict heart and kidney problems in people who have both coronary heart disease and chronic kidney disease. By analyzing certain markers, researchers hope to create a better risk assessment tool.
This study checks how heart and kidney health are related in people with kidney disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. It is a single visit with tests to see if certain heart problems are common in these conditions.
This study is looking at the link between kidney disease and heart disease. It aims to understand how heart problems affect people with chronic kidney disease. The trial does not test a new drug, but rather follows patients to learn more about their health.
This study screens people with chest symptoms to see who might have coronary artery disease (CAD) when it’s not clear from symptoms alone. It may help doctors choose the right imaging tests for more accurate answers and safer care.
This study looks at new ways to check heart health in people with kidney disease. Researchers want to find out if special blood tests can help predict heart problems in patients on dialysis or those with earlier stage kidney disease.
