About this study

In Tunisia, diabetes is a serious public health problem, its prevalence reaches 22.9% of people aged 18 and over and is likely to affect a quarter of the population by 2045. Diabetic kidney disease is the most common and severe complication of diabetes. It is both a major cause of end-stage renal disease and a risk factor for mortality and cardiovascular morbidity, thus becoming an additional public health concern. Early diagnosis of diabetic kidney disease makes it possible to manage patients more effectively and in a multidisciplinary way, to delay its progression to chronic renal failure.

Read the detailed description

In Tunisia, little data exist concerning the epidemiology of chronic kidney disease in diabetics. It is then relevant to assess the incidence of chronic kidney disease among the Tunisian diabetic population.

The study is an observational, multicentric, cross-sectional, and national project. The study will be carried out for one month at medical departments and ambulatory clinics of general physicians, family medicine specialists, endocrinologists, specialists in nutrition and metabolic diseases, nephrologists, internal medicine physicians, cardiologists, or any healthcare providers in charge of diabetic patients.

A Steering Committee helps investigators to monitor their patient inclusions, performs audit trails and prepares the statistical analysis plan for the study. Collected data are managed by the DACIMA Clinical Suite®, the electronic data capture platform which complies with the FDA 21 CFR part 11 requirements (Food and Drug Administration 21 Code of Federal Regulations part 11), the HIPAA specifications (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act), and the ICH standards (International Conference on Harmonisation).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Diseases and Diabetes Mellitus, run by Dacima Consulting at 1 site in Tunisia.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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 10 May 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 Tunisia. 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?

Prevalence of chronic kidney disease (time frame: At inclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 May 2023.
