Clinical Trial Details

Trial ID: L0255
Source ID: NCT03982160
Associated Drug: L-Arginine
Title: L-arginine to Reduce Sympathetic Nerve Activity in CKD Patients
Acronym:
Status: RECRUITING
Study Results: NO
Results:
Conditions: Chronic Kidney Disease
Interventions: DRUG: L-Arginine|OTHER: Placebo
Outcome Measures: Primary: Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) will be reduced after L-arginine infusion, Multiunit postganglionic MSNA will be recorded using standard microneurographic techniques. Briefly, a unipolar tungsten microelectrode will be inserted into muscle fascicles of the peroneal nerve near the fibular head of the right leg. Neural signals will be amplified, filtered (bandwidth, 700-2,000 Hz), rectified, and integrated (time constant, 0.1 s) to obtain mean voltage neurograms (University of Iowa Bioengineering, Iowa City, IA)., 30 minutes |
