About this study

Official title: The Stockholm CREAtinine Measurements (SCREAM) Project

The Stockholm CREAtinine Measurements (SCREAM) project is a healthcare utilization cohort including, at present, all adult residents in Stockholm between 2006 and 2021. The region of Stockholm had a population of 2.3 million citizens in 2021and provides universal healthcare with a single unified health-system. Administrative databases with complete information on socidemographic data, healthcare use, diagnoses and therapeutic/surgical procedures, and vital status were enriched with performed laboratory tests, dispensed prescriptions at Swedish pharmacies and validated kidney replacement therapy endpoints. Registries were linked and de-identified by the Swedish National Board of Welfare and are considered to have no or minimal loss to follow-up. Because the study utilized de-identified data, it was deemed not to require informed consent and was approved by the regional ethical review boards and the Swedish National Board of Welfare.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Initiation of specific medicationsDrug

    Also called multiple therapies studied within this database

    multiple therapies studied within this database

  • Undertaking of specific proceduresProcedure or surgery

    multiple procedures/surgeries studied within this database

  • Abnormalities in specific laboratory testsDiagnostic test

    multiple abnormalities in laboratory values (i.e. CRP, cholesterol, eGFR, potassium) studied within this database

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse health events by levels of kidney function

    multiple outcomes evaluated such as cardiovascular events, fractures, dementia, cancer, etc, all of them based on claims data and/or laboratory data

    Measured: 2006-2021

  2. Safety and efficacy of medications by levels of kidney function

    multiple outcomes evaluated depending on the treatments of interest, all of them based on claims data and/or laboratory data

    Measured: 2006-2021

  3. Effect of medications or conditions on kidney function decline

    Evaluation of changes in kidney function over time upon occurrence of a certain condition (i.e., heart failure or covid19 infection) or initiation of a specific medication

    Measured: 2006-2021

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse health events associated to laboratory abnormalities

    Same as primary objectives but for other laboratory abnormalities different from kidney function measures

    Measured: 2006-2021

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Diseases and Acute Kidney Injury, run by Karolinska Institutet.

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 6 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 2 Feb 2024. 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?

Adverse health events by levels of kidney function (time frame: 2006-2021). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06239129, 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 2 Feb 2024.
