Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a noncommunicable condition that has become a major healthcare burden across the globe, often underdiagnosed and associated with low awareness. The main cause that leads to the development of renal impairment is diabetes mellitus and, in contrast to other chronic complications such as retinopathy or neuropathy, it has been suggested that intensive glycemic control is not sufficient in preventing the development of diabetic kidney disease. Nevertheless, a novel class of antidiabetic agents, the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), have shown multiple renoprotective properties that range from metabolic and hemodynamic to direct renal effects, with a major impact on reducing the risk of occurrence and progression of CKD. Thus, this review aims to summarize current knowledge regarding the renoprotective mechanisms of SGLT2i and to offer a new perspective on this innovative class of antihyperglycemic drugs with proven pleiotropic beneficial effects that, after decades of no significant progress in the prevention and in delaying the decline of renal function, start a new era in the management of patients with CKD.

Combination of allopurinol with Dahuang Mudan Tang significantly improve kidney function and alleviate oxidative stress and inflammation of chronic kidney disease stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients with hyperuricemia. J TRADIT CHIN MED 2024; 44:182-187. [PMID: 38213253 PMCID: PMC10774714 DOI: 10.19852/j.cnki.jtcm.20231121.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of Dahuang Mudan Tang (, DHMD) and allopurinol on the treatment of chronic kidney disease staged G1-G3b patients with hyperuricemia and to provide novel insights into the clinical management of chronic kidney disease complications. METHODS A total of 80 chronic kidney patients staged G1-G3b with hyperuricemia were randomly grouped to receive single allopurinol treatment (control) and combined treatment with DHMD (treated) for 8 weeks. The kidney function and proteinuria indicators of patients were compared between pre-and post-treatment. The oxidative stress and inflammation responses were evaluated by corresponding indicators and cytokines. The clinical efficiency rate and adverse reaction events were also summarized to assess the therapeutic efficiency and safety. RESULTS The kidney function and proteinuria of enrolled patients were alleviated after their therapies, behaved as the increasing estimated glomerular filtration rate and decreasing serum creatinine, serum uric acid, urea nitrogen, 24 h urine protein levels. On the other hand, the malondialdehyde level and pro-inflammation cytokines were suppressed by the therapies, and the superoxide dismutase was found to be significantly enhanced. Patients in the treated groups showed a better recovery in kidney function, proteinuria, oxidative stress, and inflammation response. Moreover, patients in the treated group showed a higher efficiency rate (95%) and fewer adverse reaction events (5%). CONCLUSIONS The combination of allopurinol with DHMD significantly promoted the recovery of chronic kidney disease stage G1-G3b patients with hyperuricemia, which can be considered a novel clinical therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Background Previous observational studies have indicated an association between serum uric acid (SUA) and diabetic neuropathy (DN), but confounding factors and reverse causality have left the causality of this relationship uncertain. Methods Univariate Mendelian randomization (MR), multivariate MR and linkage disequilibrium score (LDSC) regression analysis were utilized to assess the causal link between SUA and DN. Summary-level data for SUA were drawn from the CKDGen consortium, comprising 288,648 individuals, while DN data were obtained from the FinnGen consortium, with 2,843 cases and 271,817 controls. Causal effects were estimated primarily using inverse variance weighted (IVW) analysis, supplemented by four validation methods, with additional sensitivity analyses to evaluate pleiotropy, heterogeneity, and result robustness. Results The LDSC analysis revealed a significant genetic correlation between SUA and DN (genetic correlation = 0.293, P = 2.60 × 10-5). The primary methodology IVW indicated that each increase of 1 mg/dL in SUA would increase DN risk by 17% (OR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.02-1.34, P = 0.02), while no causal relationship was found in reverse analysis (OR = 1.00, 95% CI 0.98~1.01, P = 0.97). Multivariate MR further identified that the partial effect of SUA on DN may be mediated by physical activity, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), insulin resistance (IR), and alcohol use. Conclusion The study establishes a causal link between elevated SUA levels and an increased risk of DN, with no evidence for a reverse association. This underscores the need for a comprehensive strategy in DN management, integrating urate-lowering interventions with modulations of the aforementioned mediators.

Abstract
Many studies have been conducted confirming the effect of uric acid (UA) on kidney function. It is obvious that there is a relationship between the effect of UA not only on kidney function, but also on the cardiovascular system, increasing cardiovascular risk. The review article provides basic information about the pathogenesis, principles and features of prescribing therapy to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease. A lot of data currently indicates that hyperuricemia, both with and without crystal deposition, is associated with high cardiovascular risk and decreased kidney function. A number of studies and meta-analyses indicate that urate-reducing therapy prevents and slows down the decline in kidney function in patients with CKD, many of whom suffer from cardiovascular diseases or at least have several risk factors. Despite the fact that currently the guidelines for the treatment of CKD do not include a recommendation for the start of urate-lowering therapy, a large amount of data has been accumulated on the potential benefits of such treatment even in the absence of a diagnosis of gout. The preferred group of drugs for this group of patients are xanthine oxidase inhibitors, and for patients with eGFR below 30 ml/min/1.73 m2, it seems that allopurinol currently has larger evidence base for the efficacy and safety of prescribing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common chronic microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Hence, the present study aimed to investigate the association between Serum Uric Acid (SUA) levels and diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We performed this case-control study during 2019-2020 on individuals with diabetes referring to the Razi clinic of Rasht, in the north of Iran. Polyneuropathy in patients was assessed based on the Neuropathy Disability Score (NDS), Diabetic neuropathy symptom score (DNS) scoring system, and electromyography (EMG)/nerve conduction velocity (NCV). The inclusion criterion for the control group was normal EMG/NCV. Then, the patients were assessed for SUA level and also laboratory results. RESULTS In total, 230 patients with type 2 diabetes were examined. The mean SUA level in the DPN group was significantly higher compared to the control group (6.72 ± 1.75 vs. 4.57 ± 1.49 mg/dL). With increasing the SUA, the odds of developing neuropathy increased by 2.2 times (OR = 2.2). The risk factors for diabetic polyneuropathy included gender (male) (OR = 0.347), SBP (OR = 1.1), retinopathy (OR = 3.29), and microalbuminuria (OR = 4.44). The chance of developing polyneuropathy in patients with retinopathy was 3.3 times higher than in the control group, it was 4.4 times in microalbuminuria patients. CONCLUSION Elevated SUA level increased the chance of developing peripheral polyneuropathy in a person with type 2 diabetes. SUA levels higher than 5.25 mg / dL expose a person with type 2 diabetes to developing peripheral polyneuropathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE we have examined the concentration of serum uric acid and the serum uric acid/creatinine ratio as well as their correlations with the main determinants of the hemorheological profile in a group of subjects with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis. METHODS we evaluated the concentration of serum uric acid and the serum uric acid/creatine ratio in 43 men and 57 women [median age 66.00 (25)] with subclinical carotid atherosclerosis, subsequently divided according to the number of traditional cardiovascular risk factors and to the insulin resistance degree. RESULTS serum uric acid, but not the serum uric acid/creatinine ratio, results strongly influenced by the number of cardiovascular risk factors and by the insulin resistance degree. In the whole group and in the subgroups of subclinical carotid atherosclerosis subjects, serum uric acid and serum uric acid/creatinine ratio show significant correlation, besides with whole blood viscosity, with plasma viscosity and erythrocyte aggregation. The influence of the serum uric acid on the erythrocyte aggregability that is a part of the erythrocyte aggregation is to ascribe to the action carried out by serum uric acid on the erythrocyte zeta potential. CONCLUSIONS it is reasonable to think that the treatment of the asymptomatic or symptomatic hyperuricemia with the urate-lowering therapy that reduces the serum uric acid concentration may reflect on the hemorheological profile which role on the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is well known.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several trials have assessed the antihyperglycemic effects of sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We conducted a quantitative analysis to assess the impact of SGLT2is on serum uric acid (SUA) in patients with T2DM. METHODS Placebo-controlled trials published before 13 August 2021 were identified by searching PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus. The intervention group received SGLT2i as monotherapy or add-on treatment, and the control group received a placebo that was replaced with SGLT2i. Clinical trials providing changes in SUA were included. The mean change of SUA, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and body weight were calculated (PROSPERO CRD42021287019). RESULTS After screening of 1172 papers, 59 papers were included in the systematic review. A total of 55 trials (122 groups) of 7 types of SGLT2i on patients with T2DM were eligible for meta-analysis. All SGLT2is significantly decreased SUA levels compared with the placebo groups: empagliflozin mean difference (MD) = -40.98 μmol/L, 95% CI [-47.63, -34.32], dapagliflozin MD = -35.17 μmol/L, 95% CI [-39.68, -30.66], canagliflozin MD = -36.27 μmol/L, 95% CI [-41.62, -30.93], luseogliflozin MD = -24.269 μmol/L, 95% CI [-33.31, -15.22], tofogliflozin MD = -19.47 μmol/L, 95% CI [-27.40, -11.55], and ipragliflozin MD = -18.85 μmol/L, 95% CI [-27.20, -10.49]. SGLT2i also decreased FPG, body weight, and HbA1c levels. SUA reduction persisted during long-term treatment with SGLT2i (except for empagliflozin), while the SUA reduction was affected by the duration of diabetes. CONCLUSIONS SGLT2i can be a valid therapeutic strategy for patients with T2DM and comorbid hyperuricemia. Besides reducing FPG, body weight, and HbA1c, SGLT2i can significantly decrease SUA levels compared to placebo (Total MD = -34.07 μmol/L, 95% CI [-37.00, -31.14]).

Prevention of kidney function decline using uric acid-lowering therapy in chronic kidney disease patients: a systematic review and network meta-analysis. Clin Rheumatol 2021; 41:911-919. [PMID: 34642880 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-021-05956-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2021] [Revised: 09/30/2021] [Accepted: 10/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several previous studies have suggested that uric acid-lowering therapy (ULT) can slow the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although crucial for CKD patients, few studies have evaluated the effects of different ULT medications on kidney function. This systematic review summarizes evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) regarding the effects of ULT on kidney function. METHOD We performed a systematic search of PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library up to September 2021 to identify RCTs in CKD patients comparing the effects of ULT on kidney function with other ULT medications or placebo. A network meta-analysis was performed to compare each ULT indirectly. The primary outcome was a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from baseline. RESULTS Ten studies were selected with a total of 1480 patients. Topiroxostat significantly improved eGFR and reduced the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio compared to placebo (mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.49 [0.08; 2.90], P = 0.038 and 25.65% [13.25; 38.04], P < 0.001, respectively). Although febuxostat did not show a positive effect overall, it significantly improved renal function (i.e., eGFR) in a subgroup of CKD patients with hyperuricemia (MD [95% CI]: 0.85 [0.02; 1.67], P = 0.045). Allopurinol and pegloticase did not show beneficial effects. CONCLUSIONS Topiroxostat and febuxostat may have better renoprotective effects in CKD patients than other ULT medications. Further large-scale, long-term studies are required to determine whether these effects will lead, ultimately, to reductions in dialysis induction and major adverse cardiovascular events. Key Points • This study is the first network meta-analysis comparing the nephroprotective effects of ULT in CKD patients. • Topiroxostat and febuxostat showed better renoprotective effects in CKD patients than other ULT medications. • Heterogeneity was low in this study, suggesting consistency of results.

Abstract
In this study, the inhibitory activities of eight caffeoylquinic acids (CQAs) against xanthine oxidase (XOD) in vitro were investigated, and the interaction mechanisms between each compound and XOD were studied. HPLC and fluorescence spectra showed that the inhibitory activities of dicaffeoylquinic acids (diCQAs) were higher than that of monocaffeoylquinic acids (monoCQAs), due to the main roles of hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond between XOD and diCQAs. Both the binding constant and the lowest binding energy data indicated that the affinities of diCQAs to XOD were stronger than that of monoCQAs. Circular dichroism showed that the structure of XOD was compacted with the increased of α-helix content, resulting in decreased enzyme catalytic activity. Molecular docking revealed that CQAs preferentially bind to the flavin adenine dinucleotide region in XOD. These results provided the mechanisms of CQAs on inhibiting XOD and the further utilization of CQAs as XOD inhibitors to prevent hyperuricemia.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW In chronic kidney disease (CKD), plasma uric acid levels are increased because of the decrease in glomerular filtration rate. However, in addition to CKD, hyperuricemia is frequently associated with a number of other conditions such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and heart failure, overweight, and cardiovascular disease. RECENT FINDINGS It is now becoming increasingly clear that, in many clinical conditions, elevated levels of uric acid have a much greater role beyond just causing gout. The present review will summarize current knowledge on the relation between hyperuricemia, CKD, and existing comorbidities, as well as the mechanisms of uric acid-related renal damage. In addition, the role and evidence for urate-lowering therapy in prevention and cardiovascular protection in CKD patients is discussed with a focus on allopurinol and febuxostat. To date, several clinical studies have provided evidence that urate-lowering therapy may help to prevent and delay the decline of renal function in patients with CKD. Use of a xanthine oxidase inhibitor should be considered in patients who are at high renal risk and/or with declining renal function in the presence of hyperuricemia with and without deposition, although additional studies are warranted to define treatment targets. Notwithstanding, the possibility to delay deterioration of renal function in patients with CKD merits consideration.

Abstract
Introduction Background: recently, a relationship between diabetic complications and oxidative stress has been emphasized. There have been some studies showing the effect of olive leaf on hyperglycemia and diabetic complications due to its antioxidant properties. In many studies the effect of olive leaf on plasma total antioxidant level has been measured by different methods. Our study represents the first time it has been measured by a new method of total thiol disulfide homeostasis. Aim: chronic exposure to hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetic complications through oxidative stress mediators. Thiol is one of the most important antioxidant barriers in humans, and thiol disulfide homeostasis is a new oxidative stress marker. We aimed to investigate the effect of olive leaf extract (OLE) obtained from fresh leaves of Olea europaea, var oleaster on diabetic complications through their hypoglycemic and antioxidant effect in diabetic rats. Methods: twenty-eight Wistar albino rats aged 12-13 weeks were used in the study. The rats were divided into a control group (C), a diabetic control group (DC), a diabetic group treated with 200 mg/kg OLE (D+200), and a diabetic group treated with 400 mg/kg OLE (D+400), having 7 rats in each group. The treatment groups received OLE by the gavage method for 21 days. At the end of the study, all rats were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. Blood samples collected from the heart were centrifuged and glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, urea, uric acid, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH) level, and thiol-disulfide homeostasis were determined. The hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) analysis was performed on complete blood. In addition, a tail flick test and hot plate modeling were performed to indicate pain perception loss. Results: it was observed that OLE had no effect on serum glucose and HbA1c levels. On the contrary, OLE reduced the levels of total cholesterol (p < 0.01), urea (p < 0.01) and hot plate latency (p < 0.01) in a significant manner. Also, OLE showed a tendency to reduce LOOH levels and to increase thiol levels in a dose-dependent manner (p > 0.05). Conclusion: OLE supplementation for 21 days, at the amounts used, cannot protect against hyperglycemia but may be protective against hypercholesterolemia and tissue damage as caused by diabetes mellitus in rats.

Abstract
Purpose The study aimed to identify diseases that exhibit significant differences between hyperuricaemia (HUA) and non-hyperuricaemia (NHUA) groups and analyse the risk factors for HUA based on the related diseases in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A total of 3264 T2DM patients were investigated from 2013 to 2017 in the Jinyang and Sanlin communities by obtaining basic data from the electronic medical record system (EMRS). From September 2018 to July 2019, 3000 patients (264 patients were missing during follow-up) were investigated with questionnaires, physical examinations and biochemical index tests. After removing missing values, 2899 patients were divided into HUA and NHUA groups. The chi-square test was used to identify diseases with differences. Using Lasso analysis and logistic regression analysis, risk factors for HUA based on the related diseases were obtained. The C-index, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration plot were used to validate the discrimination and accuracy of the factors. Results The chi-square test showed that there were significant differences in coronary heart disease (CHD) and diabetic nephropathy (DN) between the HUA group and the NHUA group. Through Lasso regression, glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), triglyceride (TG), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCR) were screened in the CHD group. Body mass index (BMI), HbA1c, total cholesterol (TC), TG, BUN, SCR and urine microalbumin (UMA) were screened in the DN group. The P-value of all the variables was less than 0.05. Through the C-index, calibration, and ROC curve analyses, these risk factors had medium accuracy. Conclusion HUA was significantly related to CHD and DN. The level of UA was correlated with HbA1c, TG, BUN, and SCR based on CHD. The level of UA was associated with BMI, HbA1c, TC, TG, BUN, SCR, and UMA based on DN.

Abstract
Purpose: Stroke has sparked global concern as it seriously threatens people's life, bringing about dramatic health burdens on patients, especially for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Therefore, a risk scoring model is urgently valuable for T2DM patients to predict the risk of stroke incidence and for positive health intervention. Methods: We randomly divided 4,335 T2DM patients into two groups, training set (n = 3,252) and validation set (n = 1,083), at the ratio of 3:1. Characteristic variables were then selected based on the data of training set through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression. Three models were established to verify predictive ability. Foundation model was composed of basic information and physical indicators. Biochemical model consisted of biochemical indexes. Integrated model combined the above two models. Data of three models were then put into logistic regression analysis to form nomogram prediction models. Tools including C index, calibration plot, and curve analysis were implemented to test discrimination, calibration, and clinical use. To select the best predicting model, net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were put into effect. Results: Eleven risk factors were determined, including age, duration of T2DM, estimated glomerular filtration rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, triglyceride, body mass index, uric acid, and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c, all with significant P-values through logistic regression analysis. In the training set, areas under the curve of three models were 0.810, 0.819, and 0.884, whereas in the validation set, they were 0.836, 0.832, and 0.909. Through calibration plot, the S:P values in the training set were 0.836, 0.754, and 0.621 and were 0.918, 0.682, and 0.666 separately in the validation set. In terms of the decision curve analysis, the risk thresholds were, respectively, 8-73%, 8-98%, and 8%~ in the training set and 8-70%, 8-90%, and 8-95% in the validation set. With the aid of NRI and IDI, integrated model is proved to be the best model in training set and validation set. Besides, internal validation was conducted on all the subjects in this study, and the C index was 0.890 (0.873-0.907). Conclusion: This study established a model predicting risk of stroke for T2DM patients through a community-based survey.
