Cleveland Kidney Disease Research
Cleveland Precision Medicine Chronic Kidney Disease Cohort
This project invites people with diabetic kidney disease and high blood pressure-related kidney disease to join a group that helps researchers learn more about these conditions.

What this research studies
We are inviting people with diabetic kidney disease and high blood pressure-related kidney disease to join a special group in Cleveland. This effort is part of a larger national project called the Kidney Precision Medicine Project, which aims to gather detailed health information and biological samples from participants. By collecting this information, including genetic and molecular data, researchers hope to better understand the different forms of kidney disease and discover new ways to treat them. Our team will focus on reaching out to diverse communities to ensure the findings are relevant for everyone affected by kidney disease.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals living with diabetic kidney disease or hypertension-attributable chronic kidney disease, particularly those from diverse communities in the Cleveland area.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have diabetic kidney disease or hypertension-attributable chronic kidney disease may not directly benefit from participating in this specific cohort.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this work could lead to new ways to identify and treat different types of kidney disease.
How similar studies have performed: The Cleveland site has successfully enrolled and followed a diverse group of participants in the first phase of this larger national project.
