Consortium established to design and implement clinical trials of treatments that might slow the progressive loss of renal function in Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Two multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trials are running concurrently to study the efficacy of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockade on the progression of cystic disease (kidney volume) and on the decline in renal function in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Study A is to study whether intensive ACE-I/ARB blockade decrease the progression of cystic disease compared to ACE-I monotherapy patients with early disease, relatively preserved renal function, and high-normal BP or hypertension. Study B is to study whether intensive ACE-I/ARB blockade as compared to ACE-I monotherapy slow the decline in kidney function, end-stage of renal disease, or death in the setting of standard blood pressure control in hypertensive patients with moderately advanced disease.

http://www.cristudy.org/Chronic-Kidney-Disease/Chronic-Renal-Insufficiency-Cohort-Study/

A prospective observational national cohort study poised to make fundamental insights into the epidemiology, management, and outcomes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults with intended long-term follow up. The major goals of the CRIC Study are to answer two important questions: * Why does kidney disease get worse in some people, but not in others? * Why do persons with kidney disease commonly experience heart disease and stroke? The CRIC Scientific and Data Coordinating Center at Penn receives data and provides ongoing support for a number of Ancillary Studies approved by the CRIC Cohort utilizing both data collected about CRIC study participants as well as their biological samples. The CRIC Study has enrolled over 3900 men and women with CKD from 13 recruitment sites throughout the country. Following this group of individuals over the past 10 years has contributed to the knowledge of kidney disease, its treatment, and preventing its complications. The NIDDKwill be extending the study for an additional 5 years, through 2018. An extensive set of study data is collected from CRIC Study participants. With varying frequency, data are collected in the domains of medical history, physical measures, psychometrics and behaviors, biomarkers, genomics/metabolomics, as well as renal, cardiovascular and other outcomes. Measurements include creatinine clearance and iothalamate measured glomerular filtration rate. Cardiovascular measures include blood pressure, ECG, ABI, ECHO, and EBCT. Clinical CV outcomes include MI, ischemic heart disease-related death, acute coronary syndromes, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease, and composite outcomes. The CRIC Study has delivered in excess of 150,000 bio-samples and a dataset characterizing all 3939 CRIC participants at the time of study entry to the NIDDKnational repository. The CRIC Study will also be delivering a dataset to NCBI''''s Database for Genotypes and Phenotypes.

Annual report, standard analysis files and an online query system from the national data registry on the end-stage renal disease (ESRD) population in the U.S., including treatments and outcomes. The Annual Data Report is divided into two parts. The Atlas section displays data using graphs and charts. Specific chapters address trends in ESRD patient populations, quality of ESRD care, kidney transplantation outcomes, costs of ESRD care, Healthy People 2010 objectives, chronic kidney disease, pediatric ESRD, and cardiovascular disease special studies. The Reference Tables are devoted entirely to the ESRD population. The RenDER (Renal Data Extraction and Referencing) online data query system allows users to build data tables and maps for the ESRD population. National, state, and county level data are available. USRDS staff collaborates with members of Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), and the ESRD networks, sharing datasets and actively working to improve the accuracy of ESRD patient information.

The only national patient waiting list and an online database system, called UNet, that links all of the professionals involved in the donation and transplantation system for the collection, storage, analysis, and publication of all OPTN data pertaining to the patient waiting list, organ matching, and transplants. The system contains data regarding every organ donation and transplant event occurring in the U.S. since October 1, 1987. UNet is a fail-safe, 24/7, secure Internet-based transplant information database created to enable the nation''''s organ transplant institutions to: * register patients for transplants * match donated organs to waiting patients * manage the time-sensitive, life-critical data of all patients, before and after their transplants Data reports are available by type: National Data, Regional Data, State Data, Center Data, Build Advanced Report, and Annual Report Data. UNet is being used right now by all of the nation''''s organ transplant programs, organ procurement organizations, and histocompatibility (tissue typing) laboratories working cooperatively to efficiently share a limited number of donated organs among thousands of patients.

Multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial is designed to determine whether daily antimicrobial prophylaxis is superior to placebo in preventing recurrence of urinary tract infection (UTI) in children with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). The basic eligibility criteria are: (1) age at randomization of at least 2 months, but less than 6 years, (2) a diagnosed first febrile or symptomatic UTI within 42 days prior to randomization that was appropriately treated, and (3) presence of Grade I-IV VUR based on voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG). Patients will be randomly assigned to treatment for 2 years with daily antimicrobial prophylaxis (trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole) or placebo. The study is designed to recruit 600 children (approximately 300 in each treatment group) over an 18-24 month period. The primary endpoint is recurrence of UTI. In addition, patients will be evaluated for secondary endpoints related to renal scarring and antimicrobial resistance. Scarring will be determined based on renal scintigraphy by 99mTc dimercaptosuccinic (DMSA) scan. Quality of life, compliance, safety parameters, utilization of health resources, and change in VUR will be assessed periodically throughout the study.

Database designed for web-based examination of the human erythroid transcriptome. The database is organized to provide a cytogenetic band position, a unique name as well as a concise annotation for each entry. Search queries may be performed by name, keyword or cytogenetic location. Search results are linked to primary sequence data and three major human genome browsers for access to information considered current at the time of each search. Hembase provides interested scientists and clinical hematologists with a genome-based approach toward the study of erythroid biology. Red blood cells in the circulation arise from hematopoietic stem cells that proliferate as erythroid progenitors and differentiate into erythroid precursor cells in response to the hormone erythropoietin. Messenger RNA was isolated from those cells and used to generate gene libraries. Sequencing several thousand expressed sequence tags (EST) from those libraries was then performed. Those EST and sequences encoding several hundred additional genes with known expression in erythroid cells are compiled here as a database of human erythroid gene activity. The database is organized and linked according to the location of these sequences within the human genome., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 15,2026.
