Filter by:The goal of this study is to investigate the value of noninvasive evaluation of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis and treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). We aim to explore the feasibility of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging in the staging diagnosis of DKD, and establish a non-invasive method for evaluating the progression of DKD disease by combining imaging and biochemical indicators. Multimodal magnetic resonance examinations will be performed on diabetic patients with different stages as well as regular follow-up during treatment, in order to investigate the relationship between imaging findings and pathophysiological changes of the kidneys.
The goal of this controlled, randomized, clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of vinpocetine on clinical outcomes on the diabetic nephropathy patients. The following will be evaluated; anthropometrics, kidney functions, glucose panel, lipid panel, ICAM-1, quality of life. Participants will receive either vinpocetine or placebo, twice daily for 3 months.
Background: Diabetes is a growing public health concern in Bangladesh, with millions affected. Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD) is a severe complication of diabetes, affecting approximately 21.3% of the diabetic population. To address this issue, a comprehensive assessment of DKD within the Bangladesh Diabetic Association's (BADAS) affiliated healthcare centres is necessary. Objective: The study's general objective is to determine the prevalence of DKD and evaluate its management at BADAS-affiliated healthcare centers. Specific objectives include assessing risk factors, screening practices, disease staging, management approaches, patient education, and providing evidence-based recommendations. Methodology: - Study Design: Cross-sectional - Study Population: All diabetic patients at BADAS-affiliated centers - Exclusion Criteria: Patients unwilling to participate or with kidney disease from other causes and with acute illness - Sample Size: "Forty patients will be selected from each center, resulting in a total sample size of 320 patients across eight centers, with one center randomly selected from each of the eight divisions in Bangladesh." - Data Collection: Demographics, comorbidities, kidney function, blood pressure, HbA1c levels, medication records, treatment guideline adherence - Data Analysis: prevalence of diabetic kidney disease, factors affecting management, and potential barriers - Ethical Considerations: Ensure patient data privacy, obtain approvals, and informed consent Implications: The study aims to provide insights into the current state of magnitude (prevalence) of DKD, its management, highlighting areas for improvement in patient care, guideline adherence, and ultimately enhancing the well-being of diabetic patients in Bangladesh.
The goal of this open-label, non-randomized clinical trial is to determine what effects, if any, an FDA-approved drug class known as SGLT2 inhibitors (Canagliflozin or INVOKANA) has any protective effects on kidney function in Type 2 diabetes. We are looking for participants 18-80 years of age, who have had a clinical diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes for ≥ 3 years. Participants will be asked to sign a consent and complete a screening visit prior to study entry including the following procedures for this study: Consent and Screening: - Laboratory tests to determine baseline health - Ultrasound to measure kidney size and ensure presence of 2 functioning kidneys Month 0: - Study entry kidney MRI (day 0) - Study entry kidney biopsy (within 30 days of MRI) - Study entry visit for dispensing 100 mg/daily Canagliflozin medication 3 month supply Month 3: - Study visit to dispense remaining 3 months of 100 mg/daily Canagliflozin medication - Review of systems Month 6: - Follow-up kidney MRI - Follow-up kidney biopsy Study participants will also be requested to provide blood and urine samples for biobanking purposes. They will also be provided the opportunity to provide a stool sample at two time points, as well as the option to participate in a related study collecting samples to create induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs). Participants will be compensated for their time and loss of work time, additionally, a nominal additional compensation for optional stool and iPSC samples.
Due to irrespective of the limitations associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), it is crucial to develop new treatments that can effectively address these concerns. So, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of SGlT2i versus ACEi in the progression of diabetic kidney disease including progression of albuminuria. Doubling of serum creatinine and need for renal replacement therapy
To explore the therapeutic effect of Shenxiao Yuning Decoction on albuminuria and the improvement of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome in patients with stage III diabetic kidney disease with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome.
Evaluate the role of Soleus muscle exercise in management diabetic kidney disease
The study intends to investigate the personal experiences of diabetic kidney disease patients who take part in a separate clinical study including a specific medication intervention. The major focus will be on closely following individuals' rates of trial completion and withdrawal. The data collected from this study will help improve future outcomes for all diabetic kidney disease as well as those in under-represented demographic groups.
1. Evulate the diagnostic value of serum cathepsin S and chromogranin A for Diabetic kidney disease. 2. To correlate the levels of serum Cathepsin S and chromogranin A with HbA1c and eGFR in type 2 diabetic patients based on urinary Albumin- Creatinine Ratio.
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause for renal replacement therapy in developed country. DKD is also the primary cause of ESKD among middle-aged and elderly people in China. Renal pathological markers have been proved to have clinical and prognostic value in both non diabetic and diabetic kidney diseases. To discriminate lesions by various degrees of severity, the Working Group of the Renal Pathology Society (RPS) developed a pathologic classification for DKD in 2010. The classification is based on glomerular lesions, with a separate evaluation for interstitial and vascular lesions. In a decade, there were several new characteristics common to DKD, such as the presence of mesangiolysis, glomerular hyalinosis, segmental sclerosis and extracapillary hypercellularity, which have been noted in patients with diabetes and may have prognostic importance. But it is still unclear whether thickening of Bowman's capsule predicts the progression of DKD.
