What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at 120 adults on regular hemodialysis to see if a simple blood test called the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) can help detect peripheral artery disease (PAD). PAD is a common but often overlooked complication in kidney patients. The goal is to find a cheap, easy way to identify those at higher risk, so they can get help sooner.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple, low-cost blood test to help identify hemodialysis patients at risk for peripheral artery disease, allowing for earlier monitoring and care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for a link between a blood marker and disease, so it won't directly improve health. The results may not apply to all patient groups.

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The present study aims to investigate the relationship between NLR and the presence of PAD in patients undergoing regular hemodialysis. By establishing this association in a well-defined population, we hope to provide evidence that supports the use of NLR as a simple, cost-effective tool for PAD risk stratification and early intervention

Ages

Children (under 18), adults (18 to 64) and older adults (65 and over)

Sex

Anyone
