Filter by:108 patients underwent elective SPK surgery were randomly divided into ERAS group (E) and routine care group (T). The ERAS group was consisted of evidenced-based systematic optimization approaches, while the control group received routine care.
Detecting diabetes-related kidney diseases early is crucial to prevent end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Existing biomarkers' specificity and sensitivity vary, emphasizing the need for novel markers. This research assesses urinary uromodulin levels and its gene expression, aiming to identify a potential marker for early diabetic nephropathy (DN) detection in type 2 diabetes patients. Uromodulin, encoded by the UMOD gene, is expressed mainly in the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop epithelial cells, making it a promising candidate for early DN detection and progression towards ESRD, potentially reducing chronic kidney disease prevalence.
The Safety, Tolerability Pharmacokinetic and Food Effect Study of HEC73077 in Healthy Subjects
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have worsening of chronic heart failure, a long-term condition where the heart does not pump blood as well as it should, as well as to treat patients who have diabetic nephropathy, a long-term, progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to work properly in patients with diabetes mellitus. In this study researchers wanted to learn more about a new substance called finerenone (BAY94-8862). Finerenone is a substance that blocks the activation of a protein in the body called mineralocorticoid receptor (MR). An increased activation of MR is involved in the development of hypertension, organ damage and worsening of heart failure. The researchers studied how finerenone moves into, through and out of the body. The researchers also looked at how safe finerenone is and how it affects the body. The main purpose of this study was to help researchers develop recommendations for the amount of the substance (the dosing) to be given to patients with reduced liver function.
To determine the effects of Pain Neuroscience Education in Diabetic Neuropathy
Current study will render insight in to the role of renal hypoxia in the diabetic kidney and is able to associate its finding with measurements of renal perfusion and glomerular filtration rate. Moreover, this research will focus on the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition on renal tissue oxygenation and oxygen consumption as well as a change in intrarenal hemodynamics and perfusion, and a shift of fuel metabolites. Elucidation the mechanisms underlying the effects of SGLT2 inhibition will advance our knowledge and contribute to their optimal clinical utilization in the treatment of chronic kidney disease in diabetes and possibly beyond.
Nidufexor addresses fibrosis, oxidative stress, inflammation and cell death, and therefore has the potential to improve the management of diabetic kidney disease when added to the standard of care (SoC) (angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB)). This non-confirmatory Phase 2 study was designed to determine the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of nidufexor in combination with ACEI or ARB at a dose level that is SoC as judged by the study doctor in patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Canagliflozin (TA-7284) in Japanese patients with Diabetic Nephropathy, compared with placebo
Carnosine, a naturally-occurring dipeptide (β-alanyl-L-histidine) first described in 1900 by Gulewitsch and Amiradzibi, is found predominantly in post-mitotic tissues (e.g. brain and innervated muscle) of vertebrates . Carnosine is claimed to decrease oxygen free-radical mediated damage to cellular macromolecules either by chelating divalent cations or scavenging hydroxy radicals with its imidazole moiety. Free-radical damage is not the only process to affect the structure of proteins and nucleic acids. To the best of our knowledge, no previous study assessed the role of carnosine in diabetes associated complications in particular diabetic nephropathy and there is insufficient evidence to recommend its supplementation in those patients. Therefore, this study was undertaken to investigate the role of carnosine as an adjuvant therapy for diabetic nephropathy in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes and assess its relation to microalbuminuria, tubulointerstitial damage marker, glycemic control and oxidative stress.
Background: SGLT2 inhibitors are the first antiglycaemic drugs with a direct renal action. A part from reducing blood glucose, systemic blood pressure and albuminuria are decreased, while natriuresis is increased. Previous research into urinary peptide patterns (proteomics) has revealed that patients in risk of progressive renal disease display a "risk peptide pattern" in their urine, ahead of decline in renal function. Furthermore a urinary proteome pattern is related to CVD risk. The long-term impact of dapagliflozin (dapa) treatment on renal parameters is unknown, but long term randomized trials are ongoing. By investigating the impact of dapa treatment on this peptide pattern, it will be determined whether this intervention can improve the urinary proteomic peptide pattern. In addition new knowledge regarding renal processes that the treatment influences is sought. The impact of treatment of urinary and tubular markers of oxidative stress and function (metabolomics) will be assessed. These markers are thought to represent one of several deleterious pathways involved in the pathology of diabetic renal disease, and here the impact dapa treatment will be investigated. Improvement of these markers of oxidative stress may indicate long-term benefit. Objective: The primary objective is to assess the impact of three months of treatment with dapa 10 mg once daily or placebo on renal proteomics pattern and other risk markers of diabetic comorbidity. Design: Double blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover, single center study. Treatment period: 2 x 12 weeks. Patient population: 40 patients with type 2 diabetes recruited from Steno Diabetes Center in accordance with the study in- and exclusion criteria. Intervention: Dapa 10 mg daily vs. placebo. Endpoints: Primary outcome: To evaluate the effect of dapa treatment on urinary proteomic patterns in patients with type 2 diabetes, microalbuminuria and eGFR equal to or above 45 ml/min/1.73m2. Secondary endpoints are the effect of the intervention on other markers for tubular function, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, microcirculation, kidney function, albuminuria, vasoactive hormones in plasma, and effect on global longitudinal strain as measured by echocardiography. Timeframe: Randomisation planned from June 2015, inclusion over the following 9 months. Last patient is expected to be completed October 2016. Data analysis completed December 2016, presentation autumn 2017 and publication early 2018.
