Filter by:There may be a role for Lisinopril in improving renal protection in post-partum women who had preeclampsia during pregnancy. The aim of this study is to determine whether routine initiation of Lisinopril after delivery, in women who had preeclampsia while they were pregnant, can control high blood pressure and improve kidney function.
Retinopathy may be associated with diastolic dysfunction and/or coronary flow reserve in the heart, and albuminuria in diabetic patients. The objective of this study is to examine the cross-sectional relationships of retinopathy with indices of left ventricular diastolic function, coronary flow reserve and urinary albumin excretion, among diabetic patients.
Evaluate the effect of a fasting mimicking diet and a food supplement on the microvascular health and urinary heparanase levels in South Asian type 2 diabetic patients with albuminuria.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of different anti-hypertensive drugs on patients with hypertension and microalbuminuria.
To study the effect of radiocontrast material on kidney functions in diabetics with microalbuminuria
Microalbuminuria is an important biomarker for the development of diabetic nephropathy and cardiovascular complications. Since microalbuminuria is not easily detected on routine urinalysis, current guidelines recommend measuring spot urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) annually in a patient with diabetes mellitus. While the standard method is quantitative measurement using turbidimetric immunoassay, it requires high cost and special laboratory equipment. This may be a hurdle that prevents screening for microalbuminuria in many patients with diabetes. Therefore, a semi-quantitative uACR test, which is rapid and inexpensive, could be used as a substitute to the current standard quantitative measurement. The investigators aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of a semi-quantitative urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio test, URiSCAN 2ACR, as a screening tool for microalbuminuria in patients with diabetes.
New strategies trying to achieve blood pressure control and consequently reduce cardiovascular risk in resistant hypertensive subjects are promising. In this context, the SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin, not yet investigated in resistant hypertension, arises as a potential drug in order to impact on blood pressure levels, as well as target organ damage and adiposity in this high-risk population.
The Prevention of Renal and Vascular Endstage Disease Intervention Trial (PREVEND IT) was designed to determine whether intervention with the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor fosinopril and/or the hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor pravastatin reduced cardiovascular and renal events in nonhypertensive, nonhypercholesterolemic subjects with microalbuminuria.
Unstable plaque, the primary cause of myocardial infarction, is characterized by distinct a morphology including positive remodeling (PR), low attenuated plaque (LAP), napkin ring sign (NRS), and spotty calcifications (SC) The purpose of the present study is to investigate the influence of microvascular dysfunction and additional risk factors on plaque morphology and plaque burden in patients with diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the association between pre-existing microalbuminuria and contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) following coronary angiography (CAG).
