Filter by:This study aims to observe changes in various indicators of renal function, such as proteinuria at different time points: short-term (Week 8), 6 months (Week 26), and a year (Week 52), in patients with DKD and hypertension, who are given antihypertensives containing fimasartan, in an actual clinical environment where a variety of patient characteristics are reflected.
This study will assess the preliminary efficacy of a lifestyle intervention including low-carb/ketogenic diet and exercise, enhanced by self-monitoring through health technologies on weight and diabetes outcomes (Glucose, HbA1c) and diabetic complications (cognitive function, and renal function) in a 6-month randomized clinical trial in 60 overweight/obese adults with or without T2D. Renal function will be assessed via both traditional and novel biomarkers, including novel metabolites and mitochondrial function.
Diabetic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in people with type 1 diabetes and are exacerbated with longer duration of diabetes and time outside goal glycemic range. Yet, type 1 diabetes is a complex disease with pathophysiology that extends beyond beta-cell injury and insulin deficiency to include insulin resistance and renal vascular resistance, factors that accelerate cardiovascular disease risk. We have shown that metformin improved peripheral insulin sensitivity and vascular stiffness in youth with type 1 diabetes on multiple daily insulin injections or standard insulin pumps. However, metformin's effect on kidney and endothelial outcomes, and the effects of type 1 diabetes technologies, with or without metformin, on any cardiovascular or kidney outcome, remains unknown. Automated insulin delivery systems combine an insulin pump, continuous glucose monitor, and control algorithm to modulate background insulin delivery and decrease peripheral insulin exposure while improving time in target range and reducing hypoglycemia. We hypothesize that automated insulin delivery systems, particularly when combined with metformin, may modulate renal vascular resistance and insulin sensitivity, thereby impacting cardiometabolic function. MANATEE-T1D is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 4 months of metformin 2,000 mg daily in 40 youth aged 12-21 years with type 1 diabetes on automated insulin delivery systems vs. 20 control youth with type 1 diabetes on multiple daily injections plus a continuous glucose monitor or an insulin pump in manual mode plus a continuous glucose monitor which will assess for changes in calculated renal vascular resistance and gold standard measures of whole-body and adipose insulin sensitivity, arterial stiffness, and endothelial function.
1. To evaluate expression levels of circANKRD36 in the development and progression of DN. 2. To investigate correlation between expression levels of circANKRD36 and stages of DN. 3. To investigate correlation between expression levels of circANKRD36 and pro-inflammatory cytokine (TNF-α and IL-6) in T2DM patients with CKD.
This is a large-scale, multi-center, observational study. It is planned to establish a large database of 10,000 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to investigate the prevalence, awareness and screening rates of diabetes kidney disease (DKD), and provide real-world data on the efficacy and safety of sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Diabetic kidney disease is a common complication of diabetes and the main cause of end-stage renal disease. In this study, the investigator plan to enroll nearly 500 participant with/without DKD and to develop an automatic segmentation ultrasound based radiomics technology to differentiating participant with a non-invasive and an available way.
Determination of the possible causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with an atypical presentations of renal disease for proper management and thus improving renal outcome.
Early diabetic kidney disease (DKD) occurs in 50-70% of youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and confers high lifetime risk of dialysis and premature death. Youth-onset T2D typically manifests during or shortly after puberty in adolescents with obesity. Epidemiological data implicate puberty as an accelerator of kidney disease in youth with obesity and diabetes and the investigators posit that the link between puberty and T2D-onset may explain the high burden of DKD in youth-onset T2D. A better understanding of the impact of puberty on kidney health is needed to promote preservation of native kidney function, especially in youth with T2D.
The overall objective of the proposed randomized trial is to test whether implementation of intensively integrated care of microvascular risk factors (glycated hemoglobin [HbA1C], urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio [ACR], blood pressure [BP], estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], uric acid [UA] and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL]) will improve and reduce diabetic kidney disease events (DKD morbidity and mortality) among patients with diabetes and additional microvascular risk factors compared to usual care in public primary care setting (community health service center) in Xiamen, China.
The investigators designed a randomized parallel controlled clinical study, selected 98 cases of diabetic nephropathy patients with urinary protein > 1g, randomly assigned into the Kunxian capsule + irbesartan group or irbesartan group, 48 weeks of treatment and follow-up, reduced levels of urinary protein and effective relief time, remission rate as the main end point, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) drop rate slope for secondary end points, safety events were also collected. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Kunxian capsule combined with irbesartan in treatment of diabetic nephropathy compared with irbesartan alone.
