The Role of Endothelial Glycocalyx in Kidney Transplantation
Status: Recruiting
Intervention Type: Procedure
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
The goal of this observational study is detailed examination of endothelial glycocalyx in kidney transplantation. Researchers will evaluate markers of degradation of EG in blood and urine; and also perform direct visualisation of EG with sidestream dark field imaging (SDF) in both donors and recipients of kidney transplantation.
