Filter by:The purpose of the study is to detect the effect of treatment of hyperuricemia on eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) as an objective criterion for assessment of progression of diabetic nephropathy in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
adding roflumilast to the standard therapy for diabetic nephropathy and studying the progression of many outcomes including urinary albumin to creatinine ratio, estimated GFR, biomarkers of diabetic nephropathy
1. To study genotypic distribution of the TCF7L2 gene polymorphism in Diabetic nephropathy. 2. To assess level of AGEs and Insulin in patients with Diabetic nephropathy. 3. To study correlation between polymorphism of the TCF7L2 gene, AGEs, Insulin and clinical characteristics in patients with diabetic nephropathy
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of treatment with semaglutide 1.34 mg/ml in combination with empagliflozin 25 mg, compared to treatment with empagliflozin 25 mg in combination with placebo on albuminuria in participants with type 2 diabetes and albuminuria. In a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, parallel trial we will include 80 patients with type 2 diabetes and albuminuria. Patients will start in a run-in phase of 26 weeks with empagliflozin 25 mg alone. After that, the patients will be randomised 1:1 to an active treatment period with semaglutide of 26 weeks or placebo for 26 weeks. The primary endpoint is change from randomisation to week 52 in albuminuria, measured in three morning urine samples.
The study will be conducted at Assiut University Hospital. Eligible subjects will be screened for vascular calcification by Doppler ultrasound examination. A correation between the level of serum Osteopontin (OPN) level and the extent of vascular calcification will be evaluated.
diabetic nephropathy is one of the leading causes of end stage renal disease
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most prevalent health problems worldwide. Diabetic nephropathy has become the leading cause of end-stage kidney disease worldwide and is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. Traditionally, metabolic and hemodynamic factors are the main causes of renal lesions in patients with type two diabetes mellitus and diabetic nephropathy , both considered non-immune diseases. Serial researches has demonstrated that diabetic nephropathy is a metabolic and hemodynamic disorder, with inflammation playing a vital role in the process.
The heart and vessels are surrounded by layers of adipose tissue, which is a complex organ composed of adipocytes, stromal cells, macrophages, and a neuronal network, all nourished by a rich microcirculation. The layers of adipose tissue surrounding the heart can be subdivided into intra- and extra-pericardial fat. Their thicknesses and volumes can be quantified by echocardiography and computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, respectively. The term extrapericardial fat defines thoracic adipose tissue external to the parietal pericardium. It originates from primitive thoracic mesenchymal cells and thus derives its blood supply from noncoronary sources. Intrapericardial fat is further subdivided into epicardial and pericardial fat. Anatomically, epicardial and pericardial adipose tissues are clearly different. Epicardial fat is located between the outer wall of the myocardium and the visceral layer of pericardium.
Wharton Jelly derived Mesenchymal stem cells will be injected in the renal parenchyma of patients with Diabetic Nephropathy
Doppler sonography provides an easily applicable, non-invasive, and well-established method for investigating renal morphologic characteristics and measuring vascular resistance in the renal parenchyma. Doppler are of strategic importance in providing qualitative and quantitative information about the renal vasculature, which can be obtained through the assessment of the resistive index.
