Trial summary

It is well recognized that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hyperhomocysteinemia appears to be a predictor of future CVD events. Hyperhomocysteinemia has been reported to bo of high prevalence in patients with CKD. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prevalence Of Hyperhomocysteinemia In Thai CKD Patients And Relationship To Cardiovascular Events: Subgroup Analysis From Thai SEEK Study

It is well recognized that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hyperhomocysteinemia appears to be a predictor of future CVD events. Hyperhomocysteinemia has been reported to bo of high prevalence in patients with CKD. The investigators aim to study the prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia in Thai CKD patients by using Thai Screening and Early Evaluation of Kidney Disease (SEEK) study database and their relationship to CVD.

Read the detailed description

Ninety eight subjects were sampling from Thai SEEK study database Traditional Traditional risk factors of CVD such as total cholesterol, triglyceride, age, sex, history of smoking and blood pressure levels were examined and recorded. Stored sera of these subjects were analyzed for the total homocysteine (tHcy) level. Analysis of variance was used to evaluate the different of mean tHcy among groups

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Level of Homocysteine

    Level of homocysteinemia according to each CKD level

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Association of cardiovascular event to the level of homocysteine

    Hugh level of homocysteine will have association with cardiovascular events or not

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiovascular Disease and Hyperhomocysteinemia, run by Bangkok Metropolitan Administration Medical College and Vajira Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jul 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Level of Homocysteine (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01391416, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jul 2011.
