thalidomide and Kidney Failure, Chronic

thalidomide has been researched along with Kidney Failure, Chronic in 25 studies

Thalidomide: A piperidinyl isoindole originally introduced as a non-barbiturate hypnotic, but withdrawn from the market due to teratogenic effects. It has been reintroduced and used for a number of immunological and inflammatory disorders. Thalidomide displays immunosuppressive and anti-angiogenic activity. It inhibits release of TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR-ALPHA from monocytes, and modulates other cytokine action.
thalidomide : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of R- and S-thalidomide.
2-(2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl)-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione : A dicarboximide that is isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is substituted by a 2,6-dioxopiperidin-3-yl group.

Kidney Failure, Chronic: The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

Quality of Life Measured by the EQ-5D-3L Questionnaire at Baseline and 1 Month Follow up

"The EQ-5D-3L descriptive system comprises the following five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension is scored on a scale of 1 to 3: 1 (no problems), 2 (some problems), and 3 (extreme problems). Higher score equates to a worse outcome.~As stated in the official EQ-5D user guide, patient responses to the 5 questions were converted into a single index value as per Dolan P (1997). Modeling valuations for EuroQol health states. Med Care 35(11):1095-108. These index values, with country specific value sets, facilitate the calculation of quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) that are used to inform economic evaluations of health care interventions. In the UK, the values range from -0.594 to +1." (NCT02424851)
