KDDC – Kidney Disease Data Center
As an integrated activity with the development of specific preventive projects, it is critical to create an ISN Data Center for Kidney Disease (KDDC) to collect and analyze data from the screening and intervention projects in developing countries. This would allow global data collection and surveillance on chronic kidney diseases, hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular disease in emerging countries. It is emphasized that the KDDC is not intended as a registry to general meaningful epidemiological data about large regions or countries. Rather, it is a platform to ensure the success of current ISN Clinical Research Committee initiatives. Therefore, ISN encourages applicants responding to the present Call, whose proposal is funded, to send their screening and follow-up data to KDDC to Dr Norberto Perico – Mario Negri Institute – Bergamo – Italy.
