About this study

nephrotic syndrome (NS) is one of the most common pediatric kidney diseases There is an increased incidence of heart disease in patients with primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) compared to the normal population Conventional Echocardiography is usually utilized to diagnose myocardial dysfunction. Tissue Doppler imaging is a non-invasive cardiac imaging technique which measures the velocity of the longitudinal motion of the mitral annulus, tricuspid annulus and the basal part of interventricular septum

What is being measured

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

  1. cardiac performance evaluation in children with steroid dependent vs steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome

    compairing of myocardial performance index (MPI)(Tei index) in nephrotic dependant and resistant nephrotic syndrom by calculating ejection time (ET) of right and left ventricle and mitral closure time (MCT) using tissue doppler

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tissue Doppler imaging and Conventional Echocardiography in people with Nephrotic Syndrome, run by Sohag 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Oct 2024. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact alaa y Mohamed, Resident (01094667344, alaa.yehya@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

cardiac performance evaluation in children with steroid dependent vs steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome (time frame: 12 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 NCT06622915, 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 2 Oct 2024.
