NCT03543774

Brief Summary

This study aims to determine the mechanisms underlying dyslipidemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and effect of lipid-lowering therapies in patients with CKD via parameters of lipid, oxidative stress, tryptophan delegation as well as renal function and side effects. Thirty 3,4 CKD patients with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) \> 100 mg/mL (2,59mmol/l), randomly receive three different LDL lipid-lowering therapies: Simvastatin (40 mg/day) or ezetimibe/simvastatin combination (10/20 mg/day or 10/40 mg/day).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • To measure the serum level of TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, Creatinine, uric acid, and allantoin in Vietnamese CKD population and in healthy persons at the base time.

    The serum level of TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, Creatinine, uric acid, and allantoin will be measured in mg/dL.

    At the base time

  • To measure the serum level of Taurine, Tryp, and Kyn in Vietnamese CKD population and in healthy persons at the base time.

    The serum level of Taurine, Tryp, and Kyn will be measured in micromol/L

    At the base time

  • To measure the number of red blood cell, white blood cell and platelet in Vietnamese CKD population and in healthy persons at the base time.

    The number of red blood cell, white blood cell, and platelet will be measured in number/L

    At the base time

  • To measure the serum level of MDA in Vietnamese CKD population and in healthy persons at the base time.

    The serum level of MDA will be measured in nmol/L

    At the base time

  • To measure the level of Albuminuria and urine Creatinine in Vietnamese CKD population and in healthy persons at the base time.

    The serum level of Albuminuria and urine Creatinine will be measured in mg/dL

    At the base time

  • To measure the serum level of SGOT, SGPT, and Creatinin Kinase in Vietnamese CKD population and in healthy persons at the base time.

    The serum level of SGOT, SGPT and Creatinin Kinase will be measured in Units/L

    At the base time

  • To measure the serum level of MDA in Vietnamese CKD population at 4th, 8th, 12th month.

    at 4th, 8th and 12th month

  • To measure the serum levels of SGOT, SGPT and Creatinine Kinase in Vietnamese CKD population at 4th month, 8th month and the 12th month
