Abstract
Background High dietary protein intake exacerbates proteinuria in individuals with diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, studies on the impacts of low protein diet (LPD) on DKD have yielded conflicting results. Furthermore, patient compliance to continuous protein restriction is challenging. Objective The current study aims to investigate the effects of intermittent protein restriction (IPR) on disease progression of DKD. Methods Diabetic KK-Ay mice were used in this study. For the IPR treatment, three consecutive days of LPD were followed by four consecutive days of normal protein diet (NPD) within each week. For early intervention, mice received IPR before DKD onset. For late intervention, mice received IPR after DKD onset. In both experiments, age-matched mice fed continuous NPD served as the control group. Kidney morphology, structure and function of mice in different groups were examined. Results Intermittent protein restriction before DKD onset ameliorated pathological changes in kidney, including nephromegaly, glomerular hyperfiltration, tubular injuries and proteinuria, without improving glycemic control. Meanwhile, IPR initiated after DKD onset showed no renoprotective effects despite improved glucose homeostasis. Conclusion Intermittent protein restriction before rather than after DKD onset protects kidneys, and the impacts of IPR on the kidneys are independent of glycemic control. IPR shows promise as an effective strategy for managing DKD and improving patient compliance.

Abstract
Background Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) have shown benefits in patients with diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD), heart failure (HF), and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Objective We assessed benchmark outcomes (Hemoglobin A1c, LDL-C, and blood pressure), identified the prevalence of cardiorenal indications for SGLT2i and GLP-1RA, and compared prescribing rates of GLP1-RA and SGLT2i in those with and without cardiorenal indications. Methods We analyzed data from January 2018–June 2019 for 7168 patients with diabetes using electronic medical records from the Northern Alberta Primary Care Research Network, a regional network of the Canadian Primary Sentinel Surveillance Network (CPCSSN). Patients with and without cardiorenal comorbidities were compared using descriptive statistics and two proportion Z tests. Results Hemoglobin A1c ≤ 7.0% was met by 56.8%, blood pressure < 130/80 mmHg by 62.1%, LDL-C ≤ 2.0 mmol/L by 45.3% of patients. There were 4377 patients on glucose lowering medications; metformin was most common (77.7%), followed by insulin (24.6%), insulin secretagogues (23.6%), SGLT2i (19.7%), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (19.3%), and GLP-1RA (9.4%). A quarter of patients had cardiorenal indications for SGLT2i or GLP-1RA. Use of SGLT2i in these patients was lower than in patients without cardiorenal comorbidities (14.9% vs 21.2%, p < 0.05). GLP-1RA use in these patients was 4.6% compared with 11% in those without cardiorenal comorbidities (p < 0.05). Discussion Contrary to current evidence and recommendations, SGLT2i and GLP1-RA were less likely to be prescribed to patients with pre-existing CVD, HF, and/or CKD, revealing opportunities to improve prescribing for patients with diabetes at high-risk for worsening cardiorenal complications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The high cost of many healthy foods poses a challenge to maintaining optimal blood glucose levels for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are experiencing food insecurity, leading to diabetes complications and excess acute care usage and costs. Healthy food prescription programmes may reduce food insecurity and support patients to improve their diet quality, prevent diabetes complications and avoid acute care use. We will use a type 2 hybrid-effectiveness design to examine the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance (RE-AIM) of a healthy food prescription incentive programme for adults experiencing food insecurity and persistent hyperglycaemia. A randomised controlled trial (RCT) will investigate programme effectiveness via impact on glycosylated haemoglobin (primary outcome), food insecurity, diet quality and other clinical and patient-reported outcomes. A modelling study will estimate longer-term programme effectiveness in reducing diabetes-related complications, resource use and costs. An implementation study will examine all RE-AIM domains to understand determinants of effective implementation and reasons behind programme successes and failures. METHODS AND ANALYSIS 594 adults who are experiencing food insecurity and persistent hyperglycaemia will be randomised to a healthy food prescription incentive (n=297) or a healthy food prescription comparison group (n=297). Both groups will receive a healthy food prescription. The incentive group will additionally receive a weekly incentive (CDN$10.50/household member) to purchase healthy foods in supermarkets for 6 months. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and follow-up (6 months) in the RCT and analysed using mixed-effects regression. Longer-term outcomes will be modelled using the UK Prospective Diabetes Study outcomes simulation model-2. Implementation processes and outcomes will be continuously measured via quantitative and qualitative data. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval was obtained from the University of Calgary and the University of Alberta. Findings will be disseminated through reports, lay summaries, policy briefs, academic publications and conference presentations. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04725630. PROTOCOL VERSION Version 1.1; February 2022.

Clin Ther 2021; 43:1558-1573. [PMID: 34426012 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinthera.2021.07.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2021] [Revised: 07/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with an elevated risk of end-stage kidney disease, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and death. As the breadth of treatment options for CKD in patients with T2D (CKD in T2D) continues to expand, an analysis of the current use of therapies and cardiovascular and kidney outcomes is necessary. The objectives of the study were to assess the prevalence of CKD in T2D among a contemporary cohort of patients, to describe patient characteristics and treatment patterns, and to examine health care practitioner rationale for initiating therapies. METHODS The study was a retrospective, observational study (module A) with a prospective component (module B). For module A, sociodemographic data, medical history, prescription information, and laboratory investigations for patients seen by an endocrinologist in 2019 were retrieved from the LMC Diabetes Registry. Module B included a subset of patients for health care practitioner surveys to understand rationale for administering angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEis) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs). Descriptive analyses were conducted. FINDINGS The study included 14,873 patients (59% male). Mean patient age was 67 years, mean body mass index was 31 kg/m2, and mean glycosylated hemoglobin was 7.6%. Mean diabetes duration was 16 years. The prevalence of CKD in patients with T2D was 47.9%. Common comorbidities were hypertension (76%), dyslipidemia (71%), and obesity (51%). CVD was reported in 22%. The proportion of kidney medications and emerging therapies varied, with 76% of patients using an ACEi or ARB, 48% using an SGLT2i, 30% using a GLP-1RA, and 3% using a steroidal MRA. In module B, physicians identified that ACEis/ARBs, SGLT2is, GLP-1RAs, or steroidal MRAs were administered to primarily treat CKD in 33%, 12%, 0%, and 4% of the patients (n = 500), respectively. IMPLICATIONS These findings improved our understanding of the current landscape and treatment patterns of CKD inT2D and highlighted the importance of considering treatments that will provide a comprehensive strategy for cardiovascular and kidney risk protection. Despite the high prevalence of CKD and comorbidities reported in a large, Canadian T2D specialist population, ACEis/ARBs, SGLT2is, and GLP-1RAs were underused, especially considering recent clinical trial reports. The relative use of steroidal MRAs was expectedly low. With an immense burden of CKD progression and among patients with T2D, the use of treatments that provide a comprehensive strategy for kidney protection will transform the landscape of CKD in T2D.

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Blocker Effects on the Development of Cardiovascular Disease in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:662544. [PMID: 34276363 PMCID: PMC8283791 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.662544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 06/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular events are one of the most serious complications that increase the risk of mortality and morbidity in pre-dialysis and on-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is considered to contribute to the development of cardiovascular events in these populations. Therefore, several kinds of RAAS blockers have been frequently prescribed to prevent cardiovascular events in patients with CKD; however, their effectiveness remains controversial. This systematic review focuses on whether RAAS blockers prevent cardiovascular events in patients with CKD. Method: PubMed were searched to retrieve reference lists of eligible trials and related reviews. Randomized prospective controlled trials that investigated the effects on cardiovascular events in CKD patients that were published in English from 2010 to 2020 were included. Results: Among 167 identified studies, 11 eligible studies (n = 8,322 subjects) were included in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis showed that RAAS blockers significantly reduced cardiovascular events in on-dialysis patients with CKD [three studies; odds ratio (OR), 0.52; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.36 to 0.74; p = 0.0003], but there was no significant difference in pre-dialysis patients with CKD because of the heterogeneity in each study (eight studies). We also investigated the effects of each kind of RAAS blocker on cardiovascular events in CKD patients. Among the RAAS blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists significantly decreased cardiovascular events in pre-dialysis or on-dialysis patients with CKD (four studies; OR, 0.60; 95%CI, 0.50 to 0.73, p < 0.0001). However, angiotensin receptor blockers did not show significant effects (four studies; OR, 0.65; 95%CI, 0.42 to 1.01; p = 0.0529). The effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and direct renin inhibitors on cardiovascular events in patients with CKD could not be analyzed because there were too few studies. Conclusion: Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists may decrease cardiovascular events in pre-dialysis or on-dialysis patients with CKD.

Abstract
AIM To better understand the healthcare burden of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 in Ontario, Canada. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used administrative data to evaluate the prevalence of T2D, eGFR < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 and adverse cardiovascular co-morbidities in individuals aged ≥ 30 years living in Ontario, Canada. We also examined incremental healthcare costs and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) for these patients with specific incident cardiovascular and renal outcomes, in comparison with controls without these outcomes. RESULTS While the prevalence of T2D in the general population aged ≥ 30 years in Ontario increased by 1.8% over a 5-year period (2011-2012 to 2015-2016), the prevalence of eGFR < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 among people with T2D increased by 35%. In comparison with corresponding controls without these outcomes, the per patient average total costs (Canadian dollars) over a 2-year analysis period were higher for patients with cardiovascular disease/chronic kidney disease related death ($69 827; n = 32 407), doubling of serum creatinine ($52 260; n = 22 825), those who started dialysis ($150 627; n = 3499) or received a kidney transplant ($50 664; n = 651). Similarly, HCRU was significantly greater for patients with these incident outcomes. CONCLUSIONS This real-world retrospective study highlights an increasing prevalence of T2D, eGFR < 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 , and the substantially higher healthcare costs and HCRU when these patients have adverse cardiovascular and renal outcomes. The existence of such a large economic burden underpins the importance of preventing these diabetes-related complications.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by numerous pathological changes in the body. Under conditions of diabetes, hyperglycemic intoxication of the organism rapidly develops, which in turn leads to an increase of oxidative stress with subsequent disturbance of the anatomical and functional integrity of the components of organisms. Today, the search for the substances that would contribute to the multi-vectoral effect on the negative consequences of diabetes is actively being pursued. Melatonin is one of such substances. In this work, we studied the effect of melatonin on oxidative stress markers (oxidized products content, activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase), the concentration of metabolism end products (creatinine and urea), main ions concentration (potassium and chlorine), and protein content (total protein and electropherogram in polyacrylamide gel), enzymatic activity of gamma-glutamyltrasferase in the cytosolic fraction of rat kidneys under condition of type 2 diabetes mellitus (EDM2). Experimental studies were performed on 18 white adult Wistar rats divided into three groups (control, group with EDM2 and group with EDM2, which were treated with melatonin). The increase of concentration of oxidized products, the activity of catalase and gamma-glutamyltrasferase, creatinine, urea, K+ and Cl– and the decrease of concentration of superoxide dismutase in the rats’ kidneys was noted after development of EDM2. The electrophoretic proteinogram of the cytosolic proteins obtained from the rats’ kidneys showed an increase of content of high-molecular-weight and a decrease of low-molecular-weight proteins. Administration of melatonin in a dose of 10 mg/kg of body weight for 7 days after development of EDM2 restored the studied parameters almost to the control group values. Therefore, the influence of melatonin can prevent chronic development of oxidative stress in kidneys under hyperglycemic intoxication, and lead to normalization of kidney function and the restoration of homeostasis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the changes in the coagulation profiles of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) using thromboelastography (TEG) and identify the risk factors of hypercoagulation in CKD patients. METHODS A total of 128 patients with CKD admitted in Hunan Provincial People's Hospital between August, 2018 and May, 2019 were recruited. The results of conventional coagulation test and TEG were compared between patients with CKD and 21 healthy control adults. The patients with CKD were divided into hypercoagulation group with a maximum amplitude (MA) > 68 mm (n=66) and non-hypercoagulation group (MA≤68 mm, n=62). The laboratory indicators were compared between the groups, and the factors affecting the hypercoagulable state in patients with CKD were analyzed. RESULTS The levels of fibrinogen and D-Dimer increased significantly in patients with CKD at different stages as compared with the control subjects (P < 0.05). In the patients with CKD, the reaction time and K time decreased while MA, α-angle and coagulation index increased significantly in patients in stage 3-4 and those in stage 5 either with or without hemodialysis compared with the control group (P < 0.05). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), percentage of patients with diabetes mellitus, history of stroke, percentage of neutrophils, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, red blood cell count, hemoglobin levels, platelet count, serum creatinine, serum cystatin-C, serum albumin, and lipoprotein (a) all differed significantly between hypercoagulation group and non-hypercoagulation group (P < 0.05). The eGFR, platelet count and hemoglobin levels were identified as independent factors affecting hypercoagulability in patients with CKD (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS s The hypercoagulable state of patients with CKD worsens gradually with the disease progression, and eGFR, platelet count and hemoglobin levels are all risk factors for the hypercoagulable state in patients with CKD.
