About this study

Official title: Epidemiology, Risk Factors and Outcomes of Transition of Acute Kidney Injury to Chronic Kidney Disease in Critically Ill Patients

Acute kidney injury is a complex clinical syndrome,associated with high short and long- term morbidity and mortality in critical ill patients.Acute kidney injury outcomes may vary from a complete resolution to a partial or incomplete recovery of renal function leading to increased mortality,prolonged hospitalization and risk of chronic comorbidities .

The precise mechanism of acute kidney injury to chronic kidney disease transition is complex and not completely understood,especially in humans .Acute kidney injury outcomes depend upon the balance of adaptive and maladaptive repair.

Read the detailed description

Acute kidney injury is a life threatening and disabling complication of critical illness encountered in 25 -50%h of intensive care unit admission.Acute kidney injury is a complex clinical syndrome,associated with high short and long- term morbidity and mortality in critical ill patients.

Acute kidney injury outcomes may vary from a complete resolution to a partial or incomplete recovery of renal function leading to increased mortality,prolonged hospitalization and risk of chronic comorbidities like cardiovascular disease,chronic kidney disease and subsequent progression to end stage renal disease.Several studies have suggested a causal link between acute kidney injury and the consequent development of chronic kidney disease.the severity,frequency and duration of acute kidney injury are key factors in this process.

The precise mechanism of transition of acute kidney injury to chronic kidney disease is complex and not completely understood,especially in humans and several pathways have been proposed. Different animal studies have used ischemia-reperfusion and nephrotoxic injuries to investigate the pathophysiologic event involved in acute kidney injury to chronic kidney disease transition ,mainly focusing in the development of specific histological changes .Acute kidney injury outcomes depend, at the tissue level,upon the balance of adaptive and maladaptive repair. An adaptive response to injury usually leads to renal recovery with a complete resolution of pathological changes during acute kidney injury episode(resolution of inflammatory cell infiltration, regeneration of tubular cells,decrease in biomarkers of injury )without long term consequences .However,severe and repeated injury can result in a maladaptive repair,characterized by a permanent reduction in kidney function associated with significant structural changes (persistent expression of pro-fibrotic factors and development of interstitial fibrosis, delayed resolution of inflammation,permanent cell cycle arrest of tubular cells, microvascular rarefaction,renin angiotensin system activation).

The incidence rate of renal progression following acute kidney injury has been estimated to be 4.9 events /100 patient-year and is particularly increase in elderly.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Kidney Injury, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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 27 Jul 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Incidence of chronic kidney disease (time frame: Baseline). 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 NCT04101110, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 27 Jul 2023.
