Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine changes in glomerular hyperfiltration and other measures of kidney function in youth with type 2 diabetes treated with dulaglutide or placebo. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Post hoc analysis was performed on kidney laboratory data from 154 youths (age 10-18 years) with type 2 diabetes enrolled in a completed placebo-controlled glycemic control trial of dulaglutide. RESULTS Mean estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decreased from baseline to 26 weeks in participants treated with dulaglutide versus placebo (-5.8 vs. -0.1 mL/min/1.73 m2; P = 0.016). Decreases in eGFR were observed primarily in participants with baseline glomerular hyperfiltration. At 26 weeks, the prevalence of both glomerular hyperfiltration and proteinuria increased with placebo but decreased with dulaglutide (P = 0.014 and 0.004 vs. placebo, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Dulaglutide was associated with attenuated glomerular hyperfiltration and proteinuria in youth with type 2 diabetes. The impact of these changes on the risk of diabetic kidney disease is unclear.

Sleeve gastrectomy links the attenuation of diabetic kidney disease to the inhibition of renal tubular ferroptosis through down-regulating TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate how sleeve gastrectomy (SG), a typical operation of bariatric surgery, attenuated symptom, and progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). METHODS DKD model was induced by high-fat diet (HFD) combined with streptozocin in Wistar rats. SG was performed, and the group subjected to sham surgery served as control. The animals were euthanized 12 weeks after surgery, followed by sample collection for the subsequent experiment. The HK-2, a renal proximal tubular epithelial cell line derived from human, was utilized to investigate the potential mechanisms. RESULTS SG improved metabolic parameters and glucose homeostasis, and could alleviate DKD in terms of renal function indices as well as histological and morphological structures in DM rats, accompanied with a significant reduction in renal tubular injury. Compared with sham group, SG reduced the renal tubular ferroptosis. To further clarify the mechanism involved, in vitro experiments were performed. In the presence of high glucose, renal tubular TGF-β1 secretion was significantly increased in HK-2 cell line, which led to activation of ferroptosis through TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway. Inhibition of TGF-β1 receptor and phosphorylation of Smad3 significantly ameliorated TGF-β1-mediated ferroptosis. In vivo experiments also found that SG improved the hyperglycemic environment, reduced renal TGF-β1 concentrations, and down-regulated the TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS With the capacity to lower the glucose, SG could attenuate the ferroptosis by inhibiting TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway in DKD rats, and eventually attenuated DKD.

Eur J Pediatr 2024:10.1007/s00431-024-05641-0. [PMID: 38871979 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-024-05641-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
The role of obesity as risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been well-recognized. As previously demonstrated in adults, emerging data highlighted the relevant impact of obesity on renal function since childhood. As a matter of fact, obesity also affects renal health through a complex pathogenic mechanism in which insulin resistance (IR) plays a pivotal role. Worthy of note, the vicious interplay among obesity, IR, and renal hemodynamics clinically translates into a plethora of kidney function impairments potentially leading to CKD development. Therefore, renal injury needs to be added to the well-known spectrum of cardiometabolic obesity comorbidities (e.g., type 2 diabetes, IR, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease). CONCLUSION Taking this into account, a careful and timely monitoring of kidney function should not be neglected in the global assessment of children with obesity. We aimed to provide a comprehensive overview on the relevance of kidney evaluation in children with obesity by shedding lights on the intriguing relationship of obesity with renal health in this at-risk population. WHAT IS KNOWN • Obesity has been found to be a risk factor for chronic kidney disease. • Unlike adults, pediatric data supporting the association between obesity and renal function are still limited. WHAT IS NEW • As observed in adults, obesity might affect renal function since childhood. • Kidney function should be carefully evaluated in children with obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study evaluated urinary sphingolipids as a marker of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in adolescents and young adults with youth-onset type 1 and type 2 diabetes. METHODS A comprehensive panel of urinary sphingolipids, including sphingomyelin (SM), glucosylceramide (GC), ceramide (Cer), and lactosylceramide (LC) species, was performed in patients with youth-onset diabetes from the SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth cohort. Sphingolipid levels, normalized to urine creatinine, were compared in 57 adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes, 59 with type 2 diabetes, and 44 healthy controls. The association of sphingolipids with albumin-to-creatinine (ACR) ratio and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was evaluated. RESULTS The median age (interquartile range [IQR]) of participants was 23.1 years (20.9, 24.9) and the median duration of diabetes was 9.3 (8.5, 10.2) years. Urinary sphingolipid concentrations in patients with and without DKD (ACR ≥ 30 mg/g) were significantly elevated compared to healthy controls. There were no significant differences in sphingolipid levels between participants with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. In multivariable analysis, many sphingolipid species were positively correlated with ACR. Most significant associations were evident for the following species: C18 SM, C24:1 SM, C24:1 GC, and C24:1 Cer (all p < 0.001). Sphingolipid levels were not associated with eGFR. However, several interaction terms (diabetes type*sphingolipid) were significant, indicating diabetes type may modify the association of sphingolipids with eGFR. CONCLUSION Urinary sphingolipids are elevated in adolescents and young adults with youth-onset diabetes and correlate with ACR. Urinary sphingolipids may therefore represent an early biomarker of DKD.

Abstract
Nickel foam modified by hollow sphere NiCo2O4 particles was successfully prepared via a hydrothermal method using nanosphere SiO2 particles as the hard template for the hollow structure. Characterisation using SEM-EDX and TEM confirmed the structure as multiwalled hollow spheres with an average size of 270 nm, while characterisation using SEM, XRD, and XPS confirmed that the NiCo2O4 particles were attached on the surface of the nickel foam. BET analysis showed that the surface area of the synthesized NiCo2O4@Ni foam was nearly three times higher compared to that of the unmodified Ni foam. Investigation of the NiCo2O4-modified nickel foam as an electrode for the detection of glucose in sodium hydroxide solution showed high linearity of the anodic currents (R2 = 0.99) in the concentration range of 0-2.5 μM with sensitivity of 0.060 mA μM-1 and an estimated limit of detection of 0.060 μM. Excellent stability of the current response was also obtained with a relative standard deviation of 1.51% (n = 10). Furthermore, the developed sensor demonstrates strong applicability for glucose detection in real samples of human blood plasma, making it highly suitable for practical use. The results indicate that the material is promising for the further development of nickel-based sensors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicating renal dysfunction (RD) are recognized as being at high risk. Although diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major cause of RD, the prognostic impact of coexisting DM on mortality in patients with AMI complicating RD is ill-defined. This study compared the prognostic impact of coexisting DM in patients with AMI complicating RD according to both age and sex. METHODS A multicenter retrospective study was conducted on 2988 consecutive patients with AMI complicating RD (estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2). Multivariable Cox regression analysis was performed to investigate the effects of DM on in-hospital mortality. RESULTS Statistically significant interactions between age and DM and between sex and DM for in-hospital mortality were revealed in the entire cohort. Coexisting DM was identified as an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 2.543) in young (aged <65 years), but not old (aged ≥65 years), patients. DM was identified as an independent risk factor (HR, 1.469) in male, but not female, patients. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that DM correlated with significantly low survival rates in patients that were young or male as compared to those who were old or female. CONCLUSIONS There were significant differences in the prognostic impact of DM on in-hospital mortality between young and old as well as male and female patients with AMI complicating RD. These results have implications for future research and the management of patients with DM, RD, and AMI comorbidities.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common condition and a major cause of morbidity and mortality in adults, but children and adolescents are also at risk for early kidney injury and development of CKD. Obesity contributes both directly and indirectly to the development of CKD. The purpose of this review is to describe obesity-related kidney disease (ORKD) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and their impact in the pediatric population. RECENT FINDINGS Although obesity-related CKD in childhood and adolescence is uncommon, nascent kidney damage may magnify the lifetime risk of CKD. Glomerular hyperfiltration is an early phenotype of both ORKD and DKD and typically manifests prior to albuminuria and progressive decline in GFR. Novel treatments for obesity and type 2 diabetes exerting protective effects on the kidneys are being investigated for use in the pediatric population. It is important to understand the impact of obesity on the kidneys more fully in the pediatric population to help detect injury earlier and intervene prior to the onset of irreversible progression of disease and to guide future research in this area.

Abstract
Glomerular hyperfiltration (GHF) is a phenomenon that can occur in various clinical conditions affecting the kidneys such as sickle cell disease, diabetes mellitus, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, and solitary functioning kidney. Yet, the pathophysiological mechanisms vary from one disease to another and are not well understood. More so, it has been demonstrated that GHF may occur at the single-nephron in some clinical conditions while in others at the whole-kidney level. In this review, we explore the pathophysiological mechanisms of GHF in relation to various clinical conditions in the pediatric population. In addition, we discuss the role and mechanism of action of important factors such as gender, low birth weight, and race in the pathogenesis of GHF. Finally, in this current review, we further highlight the consequences of GHF in the progression of kidney disease.

Abstract
AIMS Evaluate changes in circulating biomarkers as predictors of kidney disease, and cardiac/vascular dysfunction in participants from the Treatment Options for type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) study. METHODS Candidate biomarkers were assessed annually in 507 participants over a mean follow-up of 6.9 ± 2.4 years. Moderate albuminuria was defined as urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g and hyperfiltration as eGFR ≥ 135 mL/min/1.73 m2 at two consecutive visits. Echocardiography (n = 256) and pulse wave velocity (n = 193) were evaluated twice, 5 years apart. Adjusted Cox proportional hazard models and logistic regression models were used to examine associations between biomarkers and outcomes. RESULTS At baseline, 35.7% were male, with a mean age 13.9 years, diabetes duration 7.8 months, and HbA1c 6.0%. Higher concentrations of E-selectin and proinsulin were associated with incident moderate albuminuria and hyperfiltration. Higher concentrations of FGF-23 were associated with lower risk of hyperfiltration and negatively correlated with eGFR. No candidate biomarkers predicted a decline in cardiac or vascular function. CONCLUSIONS Circulating biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction and markers of β-cell dysfunction and insulin sensitivity could be used in a more personalized risk assessment of kidney disease in youth-onset type 2 diabetes. However, biomarkers studied have limited value in predicting cardiac dysfunction or vascular stiffness.

COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE 2023; 236:107566. [PMID: 37186981 DOI: 10.1016/j.cmpb.2023.107566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2022] [Revised: 04/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The identification of insulinaemic pharmacokinetic parameters using the least-squares criterion approach is easily influenced by outlying data due to its sensitivity. Furthermore, the least-squares criterion has a tendency to overfit and produce incorrect results. Hence, this research proposes an alternative approach using the artificial neural network (ANN) with two hidden layers to optimize the identifying of insulinaemic pharmacokinetic parameters. The ANN is selected for its ability to avoid overfitting parameters and its faster speed in processing data. METHODS 18 voluntarily participants were recruited from the Canterbury and Otago region of New Zealand to take part in a Dynamic Insulin Sensitivity and Secretion Test (DISST) clinical trial. A total of 46 DISST data were collected. However, due to ambiguous and inconsistency, 4 data had to be removed. Analysis was done using MATLAB 2020a. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Results show that, with 42 gathered dataset, the ANN generates higher gains, ∅P = 20.73 [12.21, 28.57] mU·L·mmol-1·min-1 and ∅D = 60.42 [26.85, 131.38] mU·L·mmol-1 as compared to the linear least square method, ∅P = 19.67 [11.81, 28.02] mU·L·mmol-1 ·min-1 and ∅D = 46.21 [7.25, 116.71] mU·L·mmol-1. The average value of the insulin sensitivity (SI) of ANN is lower with, SI = 16 × 10-4 L·mU-1 ·min-1 than the linear least square, SI = 17 × 10-4 L·mU-1 ·min-1. CONCLUSION Although the ANN analysis provided a lower SI value, the results were more dependable than the linear least square model because the ANN approach yielded a better model fitting accuracy than the linear least square method with a lower residual error of less than 5%. With the implementation of this ANN architecture, it shows that ANN able to produce minimal error during optimization process particularly when dealing with outlying data. The findings may provide extra information to clinicians, allowing them to gain a better knowledge of the heterogenous aetiology of diabetes and therapeutic intervention options.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW With the rise in prevalence of youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2DM), it is imperative to understand the clinical burden of the disease and the socioeconomic burden this disease imposes. We review the most recent data on youth-onset T2DM, including its pathophysiology, complications, and treatment. We also review existing data to determine the socioeconomic burden of youth-onset T2DM. RECENT FINDINGS The incidence of youth-onset T2DM is rising, and significantly accelerated following the COVID-19 pandemic. Youth with T2DM are more frequently from families of racial/ethnic minorities and lower socioeconomic status. Youth-onset T2DM has more rapid disease progression compared to adult-onset type 2 diabetes. It results in earlier and more severe microvascular and macrovascular complications compared to both adult-onset T2DM and youth-onset type 1 diabetes (T1DM). While there is a lack of data describing the socioeconomic cost of youth-onset T2DM, based on extrapolation from analyses of the burden of T2DM in adults and T1DM in youth, we propose that youth-onset T2DM has higher direct and indirect costs than adult-onset T2DM. Youth-onset T2DM presents a significant clinical and socioeconomic burden due to its aggressive presentation and earlier appearance of complications. Additional research is needed regarding the cost of illness in this population.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors (SGLT2i) remain incompletely understood. Single-cell RNA sequencing and morphometric data were collected from research kidney biopsies donated by young persons with type 2 diabetes (T2D), aged 12 to 21 years, and healthy controls (HCs). Participants with T2D were obese and had higher estimated glomerular filtration rates and mesangial and glomerular volumes than HCs. Ten T2D participants had been prescribed SGLT2i (T2Di[+]) and 6 not (T2Di[-]). Transcriptional profiles showed SGLT2 expression exclusively in the proximal tubular (PT) cluster with highest expression in T2Di(-) patients. However, transcriptional alterations with SGLT2i treatment were seen across nephron segments, particularly in the distal nephron. SGLT2i treatment was associated with suppression of transcripts in the glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, and tricarboxylic acid cycle pathways in PT, but had the opposite effect in thick ascending limb. Transcripts in the energy-sensitive mTORC1-signaling pathway returned toward HC levels in all tubular segments in T2Di(+), consistent with a diabetes mouse model treated with SGLT2i. Decreased levels of phosphorylated S6 protein in proximal and distal tubules in T2Di(+) patients confirmed changes in mTORC1 pathway activity. We propose that SGLT2i treatment benefits the kidneys by mitigating diabetes-induced metabolic perturbations via suppression of mTORC1 signaling in kidney tubules.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the sex differences in the risk of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and mortality, as well as the effect modification of sex on associated factors in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS This multicenter observational cohort study included 4328 patients with type 2 diabetes. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of sex for ESKD and death were estimated using Cox proportional regression with adjustment for baseline covariates. For assessing risk modification, HRs and incidence rates for ESKD and death were compared between sexes across patient characteristics using Cox proportional and Poisson regression models. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 7 years, 276 patients (70% men) developed ESKD, and 241 patients (68% men) died. Men had higher risks of ESKD (HR 1.34; 95% CI 1.02-1.75; p = .034) and death (HR 1.64; 95% CI 1.24-2.16; p = .001) versus women after adjusting for multiple covariates. Among patients with microalbuminuria, men had a substantially higher risk of ESKD versus women, compared to those with normo- and macroalbuminuria (p for interaction .04). Incidence rates were also increased in men versus women with albuminuria of around 300 mg/g. No differences were detected in the association of sex and death across baseline patient subgroups. CONCLUSIONS In type 2 diabetes, men had an increased risk of ESKD and death versus women. Moderately increased albuminuria was strongly associated with sex difference in developing ESKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Endo Peripheral Artery Tonometry (EndoPAT-2000) is a non-invasive technology for measuring endothelial dysfunction (ED). The reactive hyperaemia index (RHI) is resulted and is low when ED is present. We aim to synthesise the literature on paediatric ED that used Endo-PAT analysis. DESIGN A comprehensive systematic review was conducted from January 2015 to March 2021. The databases included Cochrane, MEDLINE EBSCO, EMBASE (Ovid), PUBMED and CINAHL EBSCO. Exclusion criteria were: (1) If a study used a different device, for example, (2) If the study had no results. Inclusion criteria were: (1) Published in the English, (2) more than 50% of study subjects were in the paediatric age range, (3) data relevant to paediatric age range children could be extrapolated from all data, where not all study subjects were children. RESULTS Following the removal of duplicates, 156 articles were initially identified. Following exclusion, 50 articles were included for review. We have subdivided these papers into different systems for ease of reference and have reported our findings in six tables: patients with type 1/2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular, respiratory, psychiatric conditions and miscellaneous diseases. For each, the study design, population, control group (if available), RHI results and conclusions were reported. CONCLUSIONS A number of papers using Endo-PAT for children with various chronic diseases have evidence of ED. However, in many cases, there has only been a single cohort study using Endo-PAT. Further studies are required to validate these findings and to help characterise the cardiovascular risk profile of children with chronic disease. Further studies are also required that will characterise more completely the cardiovascular risk profile of these children.Consensus on other vascular risk markers that could be included in future studies is ideal and if accomplished, this would facilitate meta-analyses of studies of relatively rare conditions.

Youth versus adult-onset type 2 diabetic kidney disease: Insights into currently known structural differences and the potential underlying mechanisms. Clin Sci (Lond) 2022; 136:1471-1483.

Abstract
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global health pandemic with significant humanitarian, economic, and societal implications, particularly for youth and young adults who are experiencing an exponential rise in incident disease. Youth-onset T2D has a more aggressive phenotype than adult-onset T2D, and this translates to important differences in rates of progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). We hypothesize that youth-onset DKD due to T2D may exhibit morphometric, metabolic, and molecular characteristics that are distinct from adult-onset T2D and develop secondary to inherent differences in renal energy expenditure and substrate metabolism, resulting in a central metabolic imbalance. Kidney structural changes that are evident at the onset of puberty also serve to exacerbate the organ’s baseline high rates of energy expenditure. Additionally, the physiologic state of insulin resistance seen during puberty increases the risk for kidney disease and is exacerbated by both concurrent diabetes and obesity. A metabolic mismatch in renal energetics may represent a novel target for pharmacologic intervention, both for prevention and treatment of DKD. Further investigation into the underlying molecular mechanisms resulting in DKD in youth-onset T2D using metabolomics and RNA sequencing of kidney tissue obtained at biopsy is necessary to expand our understanding of early DKD and potential targets for therapeutic intervention. Furthermore, large-scale clinical trials evaluating the duration of kidney protective effects of pharmacologic interventions that target a metabolic mismatch in kidney energy expenditure are needed to help mitigate the risk of DKD in youth-onset T2D.

Abstract
Background: High triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a surrogate marker of insulin resistance, is associated with an increased risk of albuminuria in adults. However, the relationship between high TyG index associated with renal hyperfiltration (RHF) and albuminuria among young adults is unclear. Methods: A total of 5420 participants aged 19−39 years were enrolled from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2011−2014 and 2019) and their TyG index levels were analyzed. RHF was defined as eGFR with residuals > 90th percentile after adjusting for age, sex, weight, and height. Albuminuria was defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g Cr. Logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between TyG index, RHF, and albuminuria. Results: The mean age was 30.7 ± 6.0 years and 46.4% were male. The prevalence of albuminuria and RHF was higher in the higher tertiles of TyG index. In our multivariable model, high TyG index showed higher risk of albuminuria (odds ratio (OR) per 1.0 increase in TyG index, 1.56; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.24−1.95 and OR in the highest tertile, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.08−2.52). High TyG index was associated with higher risk of RHF (OR per 1.0 increase in TyG index, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.32−1.84 and OR in the highest tertile, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.31−2.30). When participants were divided into with or without RHF, high-TyG index-associated high risk of albuminuria was only observed in those with RHF. Participants with concurrent high TyG index and RHF showed the highest risk of albuminuria. Mediation analysis showed that 54.2% of the relation between TyG index and albuminuria was mediated by RHF (95% CI of indirect effect, 0.27−0.76). Finally, incorporating TyG index into our basic model improved the predictive value for albuminuria only in participants with RHF. Conclusion: High TyG index associated with RHF was the strongest risk factor for albuminuria in this study. Early identification of high TyG index with RHF may prevent future development of CKD in relatively healthy and young adults.

Abstract
AIMS This review summarizes the contribution of Italian diabetologists devoted to a better understanding of the complex relationship linking sex/gender and long-term complications of type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) over the last fifteen years. DATA SYNTHESIS Microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes show sex- and gender-related differences, involving pathophysiological mechanisms, epidemiological features and clinical presentation, due to the interaction between biological and psychosocial factors. These differences greatly impact on the progression of diabetes and its long-term complications, especially in the cardiovascular, renal and liver districts. CONCLUSION A better knowledge of such sex- and gender-related characteristics is required for a more precise patient phenotypization, and for the choice of a personalized antihyperglycemic treatment. Despite such mounting evidence, current diabetes clinical guidelines do not as yet adequately consider sex/gender differences.

Abstract
In the last decades, a significant increase in the incidence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) was observed concomitant with rising diabetes mellitus (DM) incidence. Kidney disease associated with DM in children and adolescents is represented by persistent albuminuria, arterial hypertension, progressive decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate to end-stage renal disease and increased cardiovascular and all-cause morbidity and mortality of these conditions. In medical practice, the common and still the “gold standard” marker for prediction and detection of diabetic kidney involvement in pediatric diabetes is represented by microalbuminuria screening even if it has low specificity to detect early stages of DKD. There are some known limitations in albuminuria value as a predictor biomarker for DKD, as not all diabetic children with microalbuminuria or macroalbuminuria will develop end-stage renal disease. As tubular damage occurs before the glomerular injury, tubular biomarkers are superior to the glomerular ones. Therefore, they may serve for early detection of DKD in both type 1 DM and type 2 DM. Conventional and new biomarkers to identify diabetic children and adolescents at risk of renal complications at an early stage as well as renoprotective strategies are necessary to delay the progression of kidney disease to end-stage kidney disease. New biomarkers and therapeutic strategies are discussed as timely diagnosis and therapy are critical in the pediatric diabetic population.

Abstract
Diversity in sex and gender are important considerations in the pathogenesis, prognostication, research, and management of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Sex and gender differences in the disease risk, disease-specific mechanisms, and outcomes in DKD may be attributed to biological differences between males and females at the cellular and tissue level, inconsistencies in the diagnostic and assessment tools used in chronic kidney disease and DKD, as well societal differences in the way men, women, and gender-diverse individuals self-manage and interact with health care systems. This review outlines key considerations related to the impact of sex on DKD, specifically elaborating on how they contribute to observed differences in disease epidemiology, pathogenesis, and treatment strategies. We also highlight the effect of gender on DKD progression and care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a leading cause of end-stage kidney disease worldwide. Recent studies suggest a more aggressive clinical course of diabetic kidney disease in youth-onset compared with adult-onset T2D. We compared kidney structural lesions in youth- and adult-onset T2D to determine if youth onset was associated with greater early tissue injury. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Quantitative microscopy was performed on kidney tissue obtained from research kidney biopsies in 161 Pima Indians (117 women, 44 men) with T2D. Onset of T2D was established by serial oral glucose tolerance testing, and participants were stratified as youth onset (age <25 years) or adult onset (age ≥25 years). Associations between clinical and morphometric parameters and age at onset were tested using linear models. RESULTS At biopsy, the 52 participants with youth-onset T2D were younger than the 109 with adult-onset T2D (39.1 ± 9.9 vs. 51.4 ± 10.2 years; P < 0.0001), but their diabetes duration was similar (19.3 ± 8.1 vs. 17.0 ± 7.8 years; P = 0.09). Median urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio was higher in the youth-onset group (58 [25th-75th percentile 17-470] vs. 27 [13-73] mg/g; P = 0.02). Youth-onset participants had greater glomerular basement membrane (GBM) width (552 ± 128 vs. 490 ± 114 nm; P = 0.002) and mesangial fractional volume (0.31 ± 0.10 vs. 0.27 ± 0.08; P = 0.001) than adult-onset participants. Glomerular sclerosis percentage, glomerular volume, mesangial fractional volume, and GBM width were also inversely associated with age at diabetes onset as a continuous variable. CONCLUSIONS Younger age at T2D onset strongly associates with more severe kidney structural lesions. Studies are underway to elucidate the pathways underlying these associations.

Curr Diabetes Rev 2022; 18:e171121197998.

Abstract
Clinical features of diabetic kidney disease include glomerular hyperfiltration, albuminuria, and kidney function decline towards End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD). There are presently neither specific markers of kidney involvement in patients with diabetes nor strong predictors of rapid progression to ESKD. Serum-creatinine-based equations used to estimate glomerular filtration rate are notoriously unreliable in patients with diabetes. Early kidney function decline, reduced glomerular filtration rate, and proteinuria contribute to identifying diabetic patients at higher risk for rapid kidney function decline. Unlike proteinuria, the elevation of urinary albumin excretion in the range of microalbuminuria is frequently transient in patients with diabetes and does not always predict progression towards ESKD. Although the rate of progression of kidney function decline is usually accelerated in the presence of proteinuria, histological lesions of diabetes and ESKD may occur with normal urinary albumin excretion. No substantial reduction in the rate of ESKD associated with diabetes has been observed during the last decades despite intensified glycemic control and reno-protective strategies, indicating that existing therapies do not target underlying pathogenic mechanisms of kidney function decline. Very long-term effects of sodium-glucose transporters- 2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 analogs remain to be defined. In patients with diabetes, glucagon secretion is typically elevated and induces insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is consistently and strongly associated with clinical manifestations of diabetic kidney disease, suggesting that reduced insulin sensitivity participates in the pathogenesis of the disease and may represent a therapeutic objective. Amelioration of insulin sensitivity in patients with diabetes is associated with cardioprotective and kidney-protective effects.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), previously encountered predominantly in adult patients, is rapidly gaining center stage as a childhood morbidity and one that pediatric nephrologists are likely to encounter with increasing frequency. This is in large part due to the obesity epidemic and the consequent rise in type 2 diabetes in children and adolescents, as well as the more aggressive diabetes phenotype in today's youth with more rapid β-cell decline and faster development and progression of diabetes-related complications along with lower responsiveness to the treatments used in adults. DKD, an end-organ complication of diabetes, is at the very least a marker of, and more likely a predisposing factor for, the development of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and premature mortality in children with diabetes. On an optimistic note, several new therapeutic approaches are now available for the management of diabetes in adults, such as GLP1 receptor agonists, SGLT2 inhibitors, and DPP4 inhibitors, that have also been shown to have a favorable impact on cardiorenal outcomes. Also promising is the success of very low-energy diets in inducing remission of diabetes in adults. However, the addition of these pharmacological and dietary approaches to the management toolbox of diabetes and DKD in children and adolescents awaits thorough assessment of their safety and efficacy in this population. This review outlines the scope of diabetes and DKD, and new developments that may favorably impact the management of children and young adults with diabetes and DKD.

Abstract
The prevalence of youth-onset diabetes is progressing rapidly worldwide, and poor glycemic control, in combination with prolonged diabetes duration and comorbidities including hypertension, has led to the early development of microvascular complications including diabetic kidney disease, retinopathy, and neuropathy. Pediatric populations with type 1 (T1D) and type 2 (T2D) diabetes are classically underdiagnosed with microvascular complications, and this leads to both undertreatment and insufficient attention to the mitigation of risk factors that could help attenuate further progression of complications and decrease the likelihood for long-term morbidity and mortality. This narrative review aims to present a comprehensive summary of the epidemiology, risk factors, symptoms, screening practices, and treatment options, including future opportunities for treatment advancement, for microvascular complications in youth with T1D and T2D. We seek to uniquely focus on the inherent challenges of managing pediatric populations with diabetes and discuss the similarities and differences between microvascular complications in T1D and T2D, while presenting a strong emphasis on the importance of early identification of at-risk youth. Further investigation of possible treatment mechanisms for microvascular complications in youth with T1D and T2D through dedicated pediatric outcome trials is necessary to target the brief window where early pathological vascular changes may be significantly attenuated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Childhood obesity is associated with later development of significant renal morbidity. We evaluated the impact of the degree of insulin sensitivity on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and determined the factors associated with eGFR in obese children. We further tested the relation of eGFR to clinical outcomes such as blood pressure and microalbuminuria. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated the relation of whole body insulin sensitivity and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) across the spectrum of obesity in children and adolescents. eGFR was calculated using the iCARE formula, which has been validated in obese children with varying glucose tolerance. RESULTS 1080 children and adolescents with overweight and obesity (701 females and 379 males) participated. Insulin sensitivity was a strongly negatively associated with (B = -2.72, p < 0.001) eGFR), even after adjustment for potential confounders. Male sex emerged to be significantly associated with eGFR with boys having greater values than girls (B = 18.82, p < 0.001). Age was a positively associated (B = 2.86, p < 0.001) with eGFR. Whole body and hepatic insulin sensitivity decreased across eGFR quartiles. Adjusted eGFR was tightly positively associated with systolic blood pressure (B = 0.09, p = 0.003) and negatively associated with the presence of microalbuminuria (B = -2.18, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS eGFR tends to increase with greater degrees of insulin resistance in children and adolescents representing hyperfiltration and is associated with cardiovascular risk factors. Longitudinal studies are needed to determine the natural history of childhood insulin resistance related hyperfiltration in regards to future kidney disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the longitudinal effects of sex, race-ethnicity, and metabolic factors on the risk of developing diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in the Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) cohort. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by serum creatinine and cystatin C were assessed annually for up to 15 years after study entry. Markers of DKD included micro- and macroalbuminuria (UACR ≥30 mg/g and ≥300 mg/g, respectively), hyperfiltration (eGFR ≥135 mL/min/1.73 m2), and rapid eGFR annual decline (>3 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or ≥3.3%). The relationships between risk factors and DKD were evaluated longitudinally using time-to-event models. RESULTS Data were available on 677 participants, average age at baseline 14 years, with a mean ± SD follow-up of 10.2 ± 4.5 years. Each 1% increment in HbA1c conferred higher risk of microalbuminuria (hazard ratio 1.24 [95% CI 1.18, 1.30]), macroalbuminuria (1.22, [1.11, 1.34]), hyperfiltration (1.11, [1.05, 1.17]), and rapid eGFR decline (1.12, [1.04, 1.20]). Higher systolic blood pressure and baseline serum uric acid, and lower indices of β-cell function (C-peptide index and oral disposition index [oDI]), increased the risk of microalbuminuria, while higher triglycerides increased risk of micro- and macroalbuminuria. Lower oDI levels, female sex, and Hispanic ethnicity were associated with higher risk of hyperfiltration. CONCLUSIONS Elevated HbA1c was a shared risk factor among all phenotypes of DKD in this longitudinal cohort of adolescents and young adults with youth-onset type 2 diabetes. Other risk factors included elevated blood pressure, triglycerides, serum uric acid, and β-cell dysfunction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in youth differs from adults and conventional medical treatment approaches with lifestyle change, metformin, thiazolidinediones or insulin are inadequate. Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) improves multiple health outcomes in adults with T2D. Initial small, uncontrolled studies of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass have also suggested beneficial effects in adolescents. Definitive studies in youth with T2D are lacking, especially with the now more common form of MBS, vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG). The surgical or medical treatment for paediatric type 2 diabetes (ST2OMP) clinical trial was designed to test the hypothesis that VSG will more effectively reduce hyperglycaemic and diabetes comorbidities than the best currently available medical treatment incorporating state of the art pharmacotherapies. ST2OMP is also designed to better understand the pancreatic and enterohepatic mechanisms by which MBS improves diabetes and its associated comorbidities. METHODS AND ANALYSIS ST2OMP is a prospective, open-label, controlled clinical trial that will recruit 90 postpubertal participants, age range 13-19.9 years, with body mass index ≥35 kg/m2 or >120% of 95th percentile and youth-onset T2D. The primary outcome is the per cent of youth achieving haemoglobin A1c <6.0% at 12 months postgroup allocation (post-VSG vs postmedical group allocation). Secondary outcomes include remission of comorbidities and measures of β-cell and incretin responses at 12 and 24 months post VSG versus AMT. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The ST2OMP protocol was approved by the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and the University of Colorado Institutional Review Boards. Written informed consent is obtained prior to study enrolment. Study findings will be widely disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER Clinical Trials.Gov NCT04128995.

Abstract
Globally, the proportion of new diagnoses of youth-onset diabetes represented by type 2 diabetes is increasing, and youth with type 2 diabetes commonly have complications and comorbidities, as well as a higher rate of mortality. In this review, we summarise what is known about the natural progression of youth-onset type 2 diabetes from published clinical trials and large-scale prospective epidemiological studies. It is important to note that the robust pathophysiological and treatment data specifically related to individuals with a diabetes onset at ≤20 years of age largely hails from the USA. Youth-onset type 2 diabetes is characterised by pathophysiological heterogeneity and inadequate glycaemic control, highlighting the need for new treatment approaches and innovative study designs in populations of varied genetic and cultural backgrounds.

Abstract
The association between rate of kidney function decline and age-of-onset or duration of diabetes has not been well investigated. We aimed to examine whether rates of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline differ by age-of-onset or duration in people with type 2 diabetes. Using the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes study which included those with HbA1c ≥ 7.5% and who were at high risk of cardiovascular events,, rates of eGFR decline were calculated and were compared among groups defined by the known age-of-onset (0–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60–69 and > 70 years) and 5-year diabetes duration intervals. Changes in renal function were evaluated using median of 6 (interquartile range 3–10) eGFR measurements per person. eGFR decline was the slowest in those with known age-at-diagnosis of 50–59 years or those with duration of diabetes < 5 years. The rates of eGFR decline were significantly greater in those with known age-of-onset < 40 years or those with duration of diabetes > 20 years compared to those diagnosed at 50–59 or those with duration of diabetes < 5 years (− 1.98 vs − 1.61 mL/min/year; − 1.82 vs − 1.52 mL/min/year; respectively (p < 0.001). Those with youngest age-of-onset or longer duration of diabetes had more rapid declines in eGFR compared to those diagnosed at middle age or those with shorter duration of diabetes.

Several pathological conditions clinically diagnosed in childhood and adolescence are characterized by ED and increased risk for early development of microangiopathic and macroangiopathic impairment, in particular type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), T2DM, obesity, metabolic syndromeand pituitary dysfunction associated to various endocrinopathies. More recently insulin resistance following chemotherapy or radiotherapy for tumors, bone marrow transplantation for hematological malignancies (i.e., cancer survivors), or immunosuppressive treatment for solid organ transplantation has been observed. Assessment of ED by means of non-invasive techniques is the gold standard for early ED detection before clinical manifestation. It is aimed to recognize patients at risk and to avoid the development and progression of more serious illnesses. Reactive hyperemia-peripheral artery tonometry is a noninvasive technique to assess peripheral endothelial function by measuring modifications in digital pulse volume during reactive hyperemia, and represents a non-invasive, reproducible and operator-independent tool able to detect precocious ED. This narrative review aimed to provide an overview of the most important papers regarding ED detection by EndoPat 2000 in children and adolescents with different endocrine diseases. A comprehensive search of English language articles was performed in the MEDLINE database without using other search filters except the publication interval between 2005 and 2020.

Abstract
The incidence of type 2 diabetes in children and adolescents in the United States
rose at an annual rate of 4.8% between 2002-2003 and 2014-2015. Type 2 diabetes
progresses more aggressively to complications than type 1 diabetes. For example,
in one large epidemiological study, proliferative retinopathy affected 5.6% and
9.1% of children with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, respectively. Screening begins
at age 10 or at onset of puberty, and is recommended among children with a BMI%
≥85 with risk factors such as a family history and belonging to a high risk
racial or ethnic or racial group. HbA1C% is preferred for screening as it does
not require fasting. As distinguishing between type 1 and type 2 diabetes is not
straightforward, all children with new onset disease should undergo autoantibody
testing. Results of lifestyle interventions for control of type 2 diabetes have
been disappointing, but are still recommended for their educational value and
the potential impact upon some participants. There is limited evidence for the
benefit of newer mediations. Liraglutide, a GLP-1 agonist, however, has been
shown to significantly reduce HbA1C% in one study and is now approved for
children. Liraglutide should be considered as second line therapy.

Abstract
Sexual dimorphism may play a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and explain differences observed in disease phenotypes, responses to interventions, and disease progression between men and women with diabetes. Therefore, omitting the consideration of sex as a biological factor may result in delayed diagnoses and suboptimal therapies. This review will summarize the effects of sexual dimorphism on putative metabolic and molecular mechanisms underlying DKD, and the potential implications of these differences on therapeutic interventions. To successfully implement precision medicine, we require a better understanding of sexual dimorphism in the pathophysiologic progression of DKD. Such insights can unveil sex-specific therapeutic targets that have the potential to maximize efficacy while minimizing adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Insulin resistance and obesity are independently associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and are known risk factors for cardiovascular and kidney diseases, the leading causes of death in T1D. We evaluated the effect of BMI on cardiovascular and kidney outcomes in youth with T1D versus control youth with normal weight or obesity and youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Pubertal youth (n = 284) aged 12-21 years underwent assessments of resting heart rate (RHR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), leptin, hs-CRP, adiponectin, ratio of urine albumin to creatinine, and estimated glomerular filtration rate. Participants with T1D underwent bicycle ergometry for VO2peak, monitoring for peripheral brachial artery distensibility (BAD), endothelial function testing for reactive hyperemic index, and aortic MRI for central arterial stiffness or shear. RESULTS In adolescents with T1D, RHR, SBP, DBP, mean arterial pressure, leptin, hs-CRP, and hypertension prevalence were significantly higher, and BAD, descending aorta pulse wave velocity, and VO2peak lower with an obese versus normal BMI. Although hypertension prevalence and RHR were highest in obese adolescents with T1D and adiponectin lowest in youth with T2D, other measures were similar between obese adolescents with T1D and those with T2D. CONCLUSIONS Obesity, now increasingly prevalent in people with T1D, correlates with a less favorable cardiovascular and kidney risk profile, nearly approximating the phenotype of youth with T2D. Focused lifestyle management in youth-onset T1D is critically needed to reduce cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in children and adolescents is on the rise, and the increase in prevalence of this disorder parallels the modern epidemic of childhood obesity worldwide. T2DM affects primarily post-pubertal adolescents from ethnic/racial minorities and those from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds. Youth with T2DM often have additional cardiovascular risk factors at diagnosis. T2DM in youth is more progressive in comparison to adult onset T2DM and shows lower rates of response to pharmacotherapy and more rapid development of diabetes-related complications. Lifestyle modifications and metformin are recommended as the first-line treatment for youth with T2DM in the absence of significant hyperglycemia. Assessment of pancreatic autoimmunity is recommended in all youth who appear to have T2DM. Pharmacotherapeutic options for youth with T2DM are limited at this time. Liraglutide, a GLP-1 agonist, was recently approved for T2DM in adolescents 10 years of age and older. Several clinical trials are currently underway with youth with T2DM with medications that are approved for T2DM in adults. Bariatric surgery is associated with excellent rates of remission of T2DM in adolescents with severe obesity and should be considered in selected adolescents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the association between sex differences and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in patients with biopsy-confirmed diabetic kidney disease (DKD). METHOD We performed a retrospective cohort study. A total of 336 patients with biopsy-confirmed DKD who were followed up for at least 12 months were enrolled. Baseline clinical and pathological data at the time of biopsy were collected. ESKD was defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate of <15 ml/min/1.73 m2 or initiation of renal replacement therapy. The association between sex differences and ESKD was assessed using the log-rank test and Cox regression. RESULT There were 239 (71%) male and 97 (29%) female patients in our cohort. Female patients had higher systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels compared with male. There were a lower proportion of female patients in the very high risk grade according to the chronic kidney disease categories (37% of female vs. 44% of male). During a median follow-up time of 20 months, 101 (57.7%) male and 43 (44.3%) female entered into ESKD, with no significant difference by the log-rank test (P >0.05). Univariate [male: hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval (CI)], 1.005, (0.702-1.439)] and multivariable ([male: HR (95%CI), 1.164, (0.675-2.007)]. Cox regression further showed that sex difference was not significantly associated with ESKD. CONCLUSION Female patients had the higher systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, LDL-C, compared with male patients. However, there was no significant association observed between sex difference and ESKD in our study.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to compare the ratio of renal oxygen availability (RO2) to glomerular filtration rate (GFR), a measure of relative renal hypoxia, in adolescents with and without type 1 diabetes (T1D) and relate the ratio to albuminuria, renal plasma flow (RPF), fat mass, and insulin sensitivity (M/I). RO2 was estimated by blood oxygen level-dependent MRI; fat mass was estimated by DXA; GFR and RPF were estimated by iohexol and p-aminohippurate clearance; albuminuria was estimated by urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR); and M/I was estimated from steady-state glucose infusion rate/insulin (mg/kg/min) by hyperglycemic clamp in 50 adolescents with T1D (age 16.1 ± 3.0 years, HbA1c 8.6 ± 1.2%) and 20 control patients of similar BMI (age 16.1 ± 2.9 years, HbA1c 5.2 ± 0.2%). The RO2:GFR (ms/mL/min) was calculated as RO2 (T2*, ms) divided by GFR (mL/min). Whole-kidney RO2:GFR was 25% lower in adolescents with T1D versus control patients (P < 0.0001). In adolescents with T1D, lower whole-kidney RO2:GFR was associated with higher UACR (r = -0.31, P = 0.03), RPF (r = -0.52, P = 0.0009), and fat mass (r = -0.33, P = 0.02). Lower medullary RO2:GFR was associated with lower M/I (r = 0.31, P = 0.03). In conclusion, adolescents with T1D exhibited relative renal hypoxia that was associated with albuminuria and with increased RPF, fat mass, and insulin resistance. These data suggest a potential role of renal hypoxia in the development of diabetic kidney disease.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have high rates of obesity, hypertension and suboptimal glycemic control. We hypothesized that renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation is present in youth with T2D and associated with poor glycemic control and renal outcomes. METHODS Cross-sectional analysis of 183 youth with T2D and 100 controls from the Improving renal Complications in Adolescents with T2D through REsearch cohort. Diabetes youth stratified by urine albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR) < or ≥2 mg/mmol. RAS levels measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and enzyme activities by synthetic substrates. In T2D, levels log transformed and Tobit linear regressions evaluated for associations with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), mean arterial pressure (MAP), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), ACR. RESULTS Youth were 14 to 15 years, with diabetes duration 1.7 to 1.8 years; 21.3% albuminuria. Serum: differences in plasma renin activity (<0.0001), and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity (P = .003) in T2D vs controls. Urine: higher ACE activity and ACE2 protein/activity (all P < .0001) in T2D, higher levels in T2D with albuminuria. Multivariable regressions: higher serum ACE activity (ß = 0.03, SE 0.01;P < .01), urine ACE activity (ß = 0.44, SE 0.18;P < .01), ACE2 (ß = 0.51, SE 0.19;P < .01) positively associated with HbA1c; urine angiotensinogen (AGT) negatively associated (ß = -0.28 [SE 0.06;P < .01]). Higher serum aldosterone (ß = 0.11 [SE 0.04;P < .01]) and urine AGT (ß = 0.32 [SE 0.07;P < .01]) significantly associated with ACR and urine ACE2 (ß = 0.21 [SE 0.13;P < .03]). No associations between RAS markers and eGFR/MAP. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION RAS activation present in youth with T2D and associated with higher HbA1c. Higher serum aldosterone and urine AGT associated with albuminuria. The prognostic significance of the combined effect of glycemia and RAS activation on renal outcomes requires additional investigation.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 receptor agonists are the cornerstone in the treatment of hyperglycemia in many people suffering from type 2 diabetes (T2D). These drugs have potent glucose-lowering actions and, additionally, lower body weight through satiety induction while reducing blood pressure and dyslipidemia. Partly through these actions, GLP-1 receptor agonism was shown to reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) in people with T2D with previous CVD or at high-risk thereof. In these cardiovascular safety trials, in secondary or exploratory analyses, GLP-1 receptor agonists were also shown to reduce macro-albuminuria, an accepted surrogate marker for diabetic kidney disease (DKD), a condition that still represents a major unmet medical need. In this review we will discuss the evidence which suggests renoprotection induced by GLP-1 receptor agonists and the potential mechanisms that may be involved. These include mitigation of hyperglycemia, overweight and insulin resistance, systemic and glomerular hypertension, dyslipidemia, sodium retention, inflammation and renal hypoxia. The recently initiated large-sized FLOW trial investigating the effects of semaglutide on hard renal outcomes in patients with DKD will provide clarity whether GLP-1 receptor agonists may reduce the burden of DKD in addition to their other beneficial metabolic and cardiovascular effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Better interventions are needed to mitigate the high lifetime risk for CVD in youth T2D. OBJECTIVE To compare 30-year risk for CVD events in 2 cohorts of adolescents with T2D and severe obesity undergoing medical or surgical treatment of T2D. SETTING Longitudinal multicenter studies at University hospitals. METHODS A secondary analysis of data collected from the participants with T2D enrolled in the Teen-Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (Teen-LABS, n = 30) and participants of similar age and racial distribution from the Treatment Options of Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY, n = 63) studies was performed. Teen-LABS participants underwent metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS). TODAY participants were randomized to metformin alone or in combination with rosiglitazone or intensive lifestyle intervention, with insulin therapy given for glycemic progression. A 30-year CVD event score developed by the Framingham Heart Study was the primary outcome, assessed at baseline (preoperatively for Teen-LABS), 1 year, and 5 years of follow-up. RESULTS Participants with T2D from Teen-LABS (n = 30; mean ± SD age = 16.9 ± 1.3 yr; 70% female; 60% white; body mass index (BMI) = 54.4 ± 9.5 kg/m2) and TODAY (n = 63; 15.3 ± 1.3 yr; 56% female; 71% white; BMI 40.5 ± 4.9 kg/m2) were compared. The likelihood of CVD events was higher in Teen-LABS versus TODAY at baseline (17.66 [1.59] versus 12.11 [.79]%, adjusted P = .002). One year after MBS, event risk was significantly lower in Teen-LABS versus TODAY (6.79 [1.33] versus 13.64 [0.96]%, adjusted P < .0001), and sustained at 5 years follow-up (adjusted P < .0001). CONCLUSION Despite higher pretreatment risk for CVD events, treatment with MBS resulted in a reduction in estimated CVD event risks, whereas medical therapy associated with an increase in risk among adolescents with T2D and severe obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The progression trajectory of renal filtration function has not been well characterized in patients with early-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) although albuminuria is often reported in this population. We aim to study the risk of progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) in individuals with early-onset T2DM. METHODS In total, 1189 T2DM participants were followed for 3.9 (interquartile range 3.2-4.7) years. Progressive CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline of ≥5 mL/min/1.73 m2 per year. Early-onset T2DM was defined as age at T2DM diagnosis between 18 and 30 years. RESULTS Compared with later-onset counterparts (N = 1032), participants with early-onset T2DM (N = 157) were more obese and had poorer glycaemic control at baseline. In the follow-up, 24.2% and 15.6% experienced progressive CKD in early-onset and later-onset participants, respectively (P = 0.007). Logistic regression suggested that participants with early-onset T2DM had 2.63-fold [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.46-4.75] higher risk of progressive CKD after accounting for multiple traditional risk factors. Furthermore, the excess risk of progressive CKD associated with early-onset T2DM mainly occurred in participants with preserved renal function [eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2, odds ratio (OR) 2.85, 95% CI 1.50-5.42] and was more pronounced in those with diabetes duration <10 years (OR 3.67, 95% CI 1.51-8.90). CONCLUSIONS Individuals with early-onset T2DM have a higher risk of progressive CKD. The excess risk mainly exhibits in early stage of CKD and cannot be solely attributed to traditional risk factors and a longer diabetes duration.

Abstract
While the global prevalence of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus is similar in men and women, the consequences of diabetes on associated end-organ complications, including diabetic kidney disease appear to be more sex-specific. Particularly, women with diabetes have higher mortality rates for diabetes-related deaths, and higher prevalence of diabetic kidney disease risk factors such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, obesity, and dyslipidemia. However, the evidence for the impact of sex on diabetic kidney disease prevalence and disease progression is limited and inconsistent. Although most studies agree that the protective effect of the female sex against the development of kidney disease is diminished in the setting of diabetes, the reasons for this observation are unclear. Whether or not sex differences exist in the risk of diabetic kidney disease is also unclear, with studies reporting either higher risk in men, women, or no sex differences. Despite the remaining controversies, some of the factors that associate with sex differences in the risk of diabetic kidney disease are age at onset, and type and duration of diabetes. There is growing appreciation of the importance of sex hormones in the regulation of renal function, with estrogens generally considered to be renoprotective. Although some progress has been made towards better understanding of the mechanisms by which sex hormones play a role in the pathophysiology of diabetic kidney disease, the translational potential of this knowledge is still underappreciated. A better understanding of sex differences in diabetic kidney disease may provide basis for personalized and sex-specific treatment of diabetic kidney disease.

Five-year kidney outcomes of bariatric surgery differ in severely obese adolescents and adults with and without type 2 diabetes. Kidney Int 2020; 97:995-1005.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery improves markers of kidney health in severe obesity, yet it is unclear if kidney disease outcomes differ according to age at surgery. Therefore, we examined health effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass between 161 adolescents and 396 adults participating in two related but distinct studies. Primary outcomes were elevated urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) of 30 mg/g or more and hyperfiltration (an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 135 ml/min/1.73m2 or more). Analyses were stratified by the presence of pre-operative type 2 diabetes. Adolescents with pre-operative type 2 diabetes had a significantly increased prevalence of elevated UACR prior to surgery compared to adults (22.5 vs. 9.0%). Resolution of elevated UACR following surgery differed between adolescents and adults with type 2 diabetes, with adolescents experiencing a significantly earlier improvement following surgery. Adolescents without pre-operative type 2 diabetes demonstrated a significantly increased prevalence of UACR prior to surgery compared to adults (9.4 vs. 4.5%), with no improvement occurring in either group post-operatively. Adolescents with pre-operative type 2 diabetes had a significantly increased prevalence of hyperfiltration that remained throughout the study period, whereas hyperfiltration prevalence was similar among those without type 2 diabetes. Thus, adolescents with pre-operative type 2 diabetes experienced earlier attenuation of elevated UACR compared to adults with pre-operative type 2 diabetes in response to gastric bypass.

Abstract
Bariatric surgery, an emerging treatment for severely obese youth with and without T2D, provides marked improvement in insulin resistance, beta-cell function, and central adiposity. Further, preliminary data suggest that bariatric surgery also results in significant improvement in markers of obesity-related nephropathy and DKD, beyond that which can be achieved with current medical interventions. Yet, the mechanisms whereby bariatric surgery attenuates kidney disease remain unclear. This review summarizes the data on the effects of bariatric surgery on obesity-related nephropathy and DKD in youth with and without T2D, in addition to potential mechanisms underlying the nephroprotective effects of weight loss surgery and how these may differ in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass vs. vertical sleeve gastrectomy. Finally, we discuss potential future non-surgical therapies to mitigate kidney disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare diabetic kidney disease (DKD) rates over 5 years of follow-up in two cohorts of severely obese adolescents with type 2 diabetes (T2D) undergoing medical or surgical treatment for T2D. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A secondary analysis was performed of data collected from obese participants of similar age and racial distribution enrolled in the Teen-Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (Teen-LABS) and the Treatment Options of Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) studies. Teen-LABS participants underwent metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS). TODAY participants were randomized to metformin alone or in combination with rosiglitazone or intensive lifestyle intervention, with insulin therapy given for glycemic progression. Glycemic control, BMI, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urinary albumin excretion (UAE), and prevalence of hyperfiltration (eGFR ≥135 mL/min/1.73 m2) and elevated UAE (≥30 mg/g) were assessed annually. RESULTS Participants with T2D from Teen-LABS (n = 30, mean ± SD age, 16.9 ± 1.3 years; 70% female; 60% white; BMI 54.4 ± 9.5 kg/m2) and TODAY (n = 63, age 15.3 ± 1.3 years; 56% female; 71% white; BMI 40.5 ± 4.9 kg/m2) were compared. During 5 years of follow-up, hyperfiltration decreased from 21% to 18% in Teen-LABS and increased from 7% to 48% in TODAY. Elevated UAE decreased from 27% to 5% in Teen-LABS and increased from 21% to 43% in TODAY. Adjusting for baseline age, sex, BMI, and HbA1c, TODAY participants had a greater odds of hyperfiltration (odds ratio 15.7 [95% CI 2.6, 94.3]) and elevated UAE (27.3 [4.9, 149.9]) at 5 years of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Compared with MBS, medical treatment of obese youth with T2D was associated with a higher odds of DKD over 5 years.

Insulin Sensitivity and Renal Hemodynamic Function in Metformin-Treated Adults With Type 2 Diabetes and Preserved Renal Function. Diabetes Care 2020; 43:228-234.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Impaired insulin sensitivity is associated with hyperfiltration (i.e., elevated glomerular filtration rate [GFR]) in adolescents with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and adults with prediabetes. Yet, these relationships are based on studies that relied on estimated GFR (eGFR), estimates of insulin sensitivity, or both. We aimed to verify the relationship between insulin sensitivity and renal hemodynamic function by gold standard methods in adults with T2D. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Insulin sensitivity was assessed by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp (M value) (glucose infusion rate in mg/kglean/min) and renal hemodynamic function by urinary inulin (GFR) and para-aminohippuric acid (effective renal plasma flow [ERPF]) clearances in participants with T2D without overt kidney disease. Filtration fraction (FF) (GFR/ERPF) was calculated. Relationships between insulin sensitivity and renal hemodynamic parameters were examined by multivariable linear regression. Renal hemodynamic parameters were examined across tertiles of M values. RESULTS We tested 44 adults with T2D, of whom 77% were male, with mean ± SD age 63 ± 7 years, BMI 31.2 ± 4.0 kg/m2, and HbA1c 7.4 ± 0.6%. Average GFR was 110 ± 26 mL/min, with an FF of 22.1 ± 2.8% and median 24-h urinary albumin excretion of 11.3 mg (interquartile range 5.8-17.0). Average M value was 5.6 ± 2.9 mg/kglean/min. Insulin sensitivity inversely correlated with GFR (r = -0.44, P < 0.01) and FF (r = -0.40, P < 0.01), and these associations remained significant after multivariable adjustments for age, sex, renin-angiotensin system inhibitor use, and HbA1c. In addition, GFR, FF, and urinary albumin excretion were highest in the participants in the lowest M value tertile. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, we demonstrate that impaired insulin sensitivity is associated with intrarenal hemodynamic dysfunction by gold standard techniques in adults with T2D treated with metformin monotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The validity of pediatric estimated glomerular filtration rate equations (eGFRs) in early stages of CKD including hyperfiltration is unknown. The purpose of this study was to develop an eGFR equation for adolescents with obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS eGFRs were developed from iohexol-derived GFRs (iGFRs) in 26 overweight/obese (BMI > 85th percentile) youth and 100 with T2D from the iCARE (Improving renal Complications in Adolescents with T2D through REsearch) cohort. Twenty percent of the cohort was withheld as a validation dataset. Linear regression analyses were used to develop the best formula based on body size, sex, creatinine, urea, ± cystatin C. Comparable validity of commonly used eGFR equations was assessed. RESULTS Mean age 15.4 + 2.4 years, BMI Z-score 2.5 + 1.2, 61% female, and mean iGFR 129.0 + 27.7 ml/min/ 1.73 m2. The best adjusted eGFR formula (ml/min/1.73 m2) was 50.7 × BSA0.816 × (height (cm)/creatinine)0.405 × 0.8994 if sex = female | 1 otherwise. It resulted in 53.8% of eGFRs within 10% of measured iGFR and 96.2% within 30%. Bland-Altman 95% limits of agreement in the external dataset were - 37.6 to 45.5 ml/min/1.73m2 (bias = 3.96), and the correlation was 0.62. This equation performed better than all previously published creatinine-based eGFRs. cystatin C did not significantly improve results; however, some other cystatin C formulas also performed well. CONCLUSIONS The iCARE equation provides a more accurate creatinine-based eGFR in obese youth with and without T2D. Further studies are warranted to evaluate within-subject variability and applicability to lower GFRs and other populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the dramatic increase in the rates of childhood obesity and youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the late 1990s in the United States, the US government, through the National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive Disease, and Kidney (NIDDK) and the Centers for Disease Control, funded a series of large studies and trials which, together, have formed the basis for much of what we currently understand about youth-onset T2D. DATA SOURCES The review focus on the recent results and implications of the treatment options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) study and the Restoring Insulin Secretion (RISE) study. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Both TODAY and RISE studies have provided critical insight into the unique aspects of the pathophysiology of youth-onset type 2 diabetes and also provided the evidence base for our current approach to the management of this disorder.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Elevated serum uric acid (SUA) is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for kidney disease in adults with diabetes, but data in youth are limited. We hypothesized that elevated SUA predicts development of elevated urinary albumin excretion (UAE) and hypertension over time in teens with type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Serum creatinine, cystatin C, SUA, and the urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) were assessed in 539 obese youth, ages 12-17 years, with T2D duration <2 years at baseline in the Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY) study. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using creatinine and cystatin C. Hypertension was defined as systolic or diastolic blood pressure ≥130/80 mmHg and elevated UAE as UACR ≥30 mg/g. Cox proportional hazards models evaluated the relationship between SUA and outcome variables longitudinally over an average follow-up of 5.7 years, adjusting for age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI, HbA1c, eGFR, ACE inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker use, and TODAY treatment group assignment. RESULTS At baseline, hyperuricemia (≥6.8 mg/dL) was present in 25.6% of participants, hypertension in 18.7%, and elevated UAE in 6.1%. During follow-up of up to 7 years, hypertension developed in 37.4% and UAE in 18.0%. Higher baseline SUA increased the risk of incident hypertension (hazard ratio [HR] 1.19, 95% CI 1.03-1.38, per 1 mg/dL increase in SUA) and elevated UAE (HR 1.24, 95% CI 1.03-1.48) in adjusted models. CONCLUSIONS Hyperuricemia was common in youth with T2D. Higher baseline SUA independently increased the risk for onset of hypertension and elevated UAE. Research is needed to determine whether SUA-lowering therapies can impede development of diabetic kidney disease and hypertension in T2D youth.

Abstract
Obesity causes modifications in the kidneys reversed by weight loss in adults. There is little data on renal function and effects of weight loss in children with obesity. The aim of this prospective study was to examine renal function and effect of a lifestyle intervention in children with overweight, obesity and morbid obesity. Two hundred forty-five children (age 12.4 ± 3.3 years, 40% boys, BMI z-score 3.46 ± 0.70) participating in an out-patient lifestyle intervention were included. Children with at least 12 months follow-up (n = 144 (58.8%)) were included in the longitudinal study. Anthropometry, blood analysis and blood pressure measurements were performed at baseline and follow-up. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated using the Schwartz and FAS equation. eGFR was de-indexed using body surface area. Different cut-off points for defining glomerular hyperfiltration were used for stratification. Depending on the definition and equation used, glomerular hyperfiltration was present in 2% to 18% of the participants. After intervention, de-indexed eGFR decreased significantly in children with baseline glomerular hyperfiltration, depending on the eGFR equation and definition for glomerular hyperfiltration used. No associations of changes in eGFR with changes in BMI z-score, blood pressure or parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism were found. In conclusion, after one year of lifestyle intervention, eGFR decreases in hyperfiltrating children and adolescents with overweight, obesity and morbid obesity. eGFR and changes over time in children with obesity depend on eGFR equation used and on de-indexing for body surface area.

The early natural history of albuminuria in young adults with youth-onset type 1 and type 2 diabetes. J Diabetes Complications 2018; 32:1160-1168. [PMID: 30316542 PMCID: PMC6289668 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2018.09.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2018] [Revised: 09/27/2018] [Accepted: 09/29/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
AIMS To determine among adolescents and young adults with youth-onset type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes the rates and risk factors for albuminuria regression and progression. METHODS Data from SEARCH, a longitudinal observational study of youth-onset type 1 diabetes (N = 1316) and type 2 diabetes (N = 143) were analyzed. Urine albumin:creatinine ratio (UACR) was measured from random urine specimens at baseline and follow-up visits (mean 7 years later). Albuminuria regression was defined as halving of baseline UACR when baseline UACR was ≥30 μg/mg; progression was defined as doubling of baseline UACR when follow-up UACR was ≥30 μg/mg, respectively. Multivariable regression assessed risk factors associated with low-risk albuminuria category (combined persistently-low albuminuria and regression) versus moderate-risk albuminuria category (combined persistently-high albuminuria and progression). RESULTS Albuminuria progression was more common in type 2 diabetes versus type 1 diabetes (15.4% versus 6.0%, p<0.001). Moderate-risk albuminuria was associated with increasing HbA1c (adjusted OR (aOR) = 1.3, 95% CI 1.1-1.6) and lack of private health insurance (aOR = 2.7, 95%CI 1.1-6.5) in type 1 diabetes; and African American race (OR = 4.6, 95% CI 1.2-14.2), lower estimated insulin sensitivity score (aOR = 2.1, 95% CI 1.4-3.3), baseline UACR (aOR = 3.2, 95% CI 1.7-5.8), and follow-up estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (10-unit increase aOR = 1.3, 95% CI 1.0, 1.5) in type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSIONS In the first decade of diabetes duration, kidney complications in type 2 diabetes are significantly more aggressive than in type 1 diabetes and may be associated with less modifiable risk factors including race, insulin sensitivity, and eGFR. Early interventions may help reduce long-term kidney complications.
