Utility of BOLD MRI as diagnostic tool in renal artery stenosis in patients with hypertension and chronic kidney disease

Immune monitoring to characterize T-cell responses of kidney transplant patients during co-stimulation blockade by belatacept

Here, we postulate that the balance between the effect of belatacept on regulatory T-cell function and the relative insensitivity of memory T-cells for belatacept leads to donor-specific alloreactivity. We plan to study the peripheral CD28-dependent…

SYMPATHY: Renal sympathetic denervation as a new treatment for therapy resistant hypertension.

The primary objective is to assess whether RD added to usual care compared to usual care alone reduces BP (24-h or average day-time SBP as determined with the use of ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM)) in subjects with an average mean day-time SBP of…

The efficacy of an antigenic marker lesion for the therapeutic effect in patients with multiple, Ta/T1, G1/G2, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) treated with TUR followed by IL-2 instillation

We like to demonstrate that treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder carcinoma with incomplete TUR and IL-2 is therapeutically more effective than treatment with complete TUR and IL-2.
