Abstract
INTRODUCTION People with diabetes are at risk of developing chronic kidney disease. However, limited data are available to quantify their risk of kidney function decline in South Asia. This study evaluates the rate and predictors of kidney function decline among people with type 2 diabetes in South Asia. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We analyzed data from the Centre for Cardiometabolic Risk Reduction in South Asia (CARRS) Trial to quantify the rate of decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in people with type 2 diabetes (n=1146) over 2.5 years of follow-up. The CARRS Trial evaluated a multicomponent intervention of decision-supported electronic health records and non-physician care coordinator to improve diabetes management at 10 diabetes clinics in India and Pakistan. We used linear mixed models to estimate eGFR slope among all participants and tested the association of eGFR slope with demographic, disease-related, and self-care parameters, accounting for randomization and site. RESULTS The mean age of participants was 54.2 years, with a median duration of diabetes of 7.0 years (IQR: 3.0 - 12.0) and median CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) eGFR of 83.6 (IQR: 67.7 to 97.9) mL/min/1.73 m2. The overall mean eGFR slope was -1.33/mL/min/1.73 m2/year. There were no differences in the eGFR slope by treatment assignment to intervention versus usual care. In the adjusted regression model, pre-existing diabetic retinopathy (slope difference: -2.11; 95% CI: -3.45 to -0.77), previous cardiovascular disease (-1.93; 95% CI: -3.45 to -0.40), and statins use (-0.87; 95% CI: -1.65 to -0.10) were associated with faster eGFR decline. CONCLUSIONS People with diabetes receiving care at urban diabetes clinics in South Asia experienced annual eGFR decline at two times higher rate than that reported from other contemporary international diabetes cohorts. Risk factors for faster decline were similar to those previously established, and thus care delivery models must put an additional emphasis on kidney protective therapies among subgroups with microvascular and macrovascular diabetes complications. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01212328.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 130:155705. [PMID: 38761776 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155705] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Senolytic combination of dasatinib and quercetin (DQ) is the most studied senolytics drugs used to treat various age-related diseases. However, its protective activity against diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and underlying mechanisms are uncertain. PURPOSE To investigate the functions and potential mechanisms of the senolytics DQ on DKD. METHODS Diabetic db/db mice were administrated DQ or transfected with over-expressed PPARα or shPPARα vector. The positive control group was administered irbesartan. Renal function and fibrotic changes in kidney tissue were tested. Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) was conducted to analyze the differential transcriptome between the diabetic and control mice. Molecular docking simulation was used to assess the combination of DQ and potential factors. Moreover, tubular epithelial cells under high-glucose (HG) conditions were incubated with DQ and transfected with or without over-expressed PPARα/siPPARα vector. RESULTS DQ significantly improved renal function, histopathological and fibrotic changes, alleviated lipid deposition, and increased ATP levels in mice with DKD. DQ reduced multiple fatty acid oxidation (FAO) pathway-related proteins and up-regulated PPARα in db/db mice. Overexpression of PPARα upregulated the expression of PPARα-targeting downstream FAO pathway-related proteins, restored renal function, and inhibited renal fibrosis in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, molecular docking and dynamics simulation analyses indicated the nephroprotective effect of DQ via binding to PPARα. Knockdown of PPARα reversed the effect of DQ on the FAO pathway and impaired the protective effect of DQ during DKD. CONCLUSION For the first time, DQ was found to exert a renal protective effect by binding to PPARα and attenuating renal damage through the promotion of FAO in DKD.

Efficacy and safety of Plantago major seeds in patients with diabetic nephropathy: A randomized open-labeled controlled clinical trial. Explore (NY) 2024; 20:103005. [PMID: 38797623 DOI: 10.1016/j.explore.2024.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic Nephropathy (DN) is characterized by albuminuria and a declining glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in diabetic patients. Plantago major (plantain) seed powder is traditionally used in these patients. Despite emerging and promising pre-clinical evidence, no clinical study investigated the potential efficacy of this intervention in patients with DN, which is the aim of this study. METHODS In a randomized clinical trial 60 DN patients were recruited from November 2022 to March 2023 and randomly assigned to the plantain group that received standard treatment (Losartan 25 mg twice a day) and plantain seeds' powder (10 gm sachet twice a day) plus sweet almond and the control group was received only standard treatment for 60 days. Proteinuria, as per 24-hour urinary protein, as well as fasting blood sugar (FBS), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, serum potassium, and quality of life score were measured at baseline and after 60 days as study outcome measures. RESULTS Proteinuria was significantly decreased from 165.04 mg to 135.84 mg (p = 0.026) in the plantain group. The mean level of proteinuria was significantly lower in the plantain group (135.84 vs. 192.04, p = 0.039) compared to the control group after treatment. The plantain group showed more increase in quality of life score after treatment (33.89±9.67 vs 38.28±10.72, p = 0.041). Other outcomes showed no significant difference between the two study groups. CONCLUSION Adjuvant supplementation with plantain seeds powder may decrease proteinuria in patients with diabetic nephropathy. Further studies with larger sample sizes and longer duration are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is highly prevalent, estimated to affect over 800 million people worldwide. Diabetes is a leading cause of kidney disease. Both diabetes and CKD are associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease and related morbidity and mortality. Over the last several years, there has been a shift in focus toward integrating kidney and cardiovascular care, particularly in diabetes. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists, and nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists have rapidly become cornerstones of kidney and cardiovascular risk-focused care in diabetes and CKD. However, present-day use of these agents is low, and disparities in use by race, ethnicity, age, sex, and comorbidities are apparent. Challenges in implementation of kidney protective and cardioprotective therapies include low rates of diabetes and CKD screening, lack of provider comfort and subspecialty reliance, inconsistencies across professional society guidelines, high rates of drug discontinuation, and prohibitive costs. Effective implementation of kidney protective and cardioprotective therapies necessitates a multifaceted approach and active engagement of patients, pharmacists, primary care providers, subspecialty providers, and health care system leaders as key stakeholders. Implementation efforts should be practical and incorporate collaborative, multidisciplinary team-based approaches. Successful implementation of kidney protective and cardioprotective therapies has the potential to improve overall health outcomes and ameliorate health care disparities.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major microvascular complication of diabetes and a leading cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. Autophagy plays an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis in renal physiology. In DKD, the accumulation of advanced glycation end products induces decreased renal autophagy-related protein expression and transcription factor EB (TFEB) nuclear transfer, leading to impaired autophagy and lysosomal function and blockage of autophagic flux. This accelerates renal resident cell injury and apoptosis, mediates macrophage infiltration and phenotypic changes, ultimately leading to aggravated proteinuria and fibrosis in DKD. Natural polyphenols show promise in treating DKD by regulating autophagy and promoting nuclear transfer of TFEB and lysosomal repair. This review summarizes the characteristics of autophagy in DKD, and the potential application and mechanisms of some known natural polyphenols as autophagy regulators in DKD, with the goal of contributing to a deeper understanding of natural polyphenol mechanisms in the treatment of DKD and promoting the development of their applications. Finally, we point out the limitations of polyphenols in current DKD research and provide an outlook for their future research.

Abstract
The American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Task Force on the Future of Nephrology was established in April 2022 in response to requests from the American Board of Internal Medicine and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education regarding training requirements in nephrology. Given recent changes in kidney care, ASN also charged the task force with reconsidering all aspects of the specialty's future to ensure that nephrologists are prepared to provide high-quality care for people with kidney diseases. The task force engaged multiple stakeholders to develop 10 recommendations focused on strategies needed to promote: ( 1 ) just, equitable, and high-quality care for people living with kidney diseases; ( 2 ) the value of nephrology as a specialty to nephrologists, the future nephrology workforce, the health care system, the public, and government; and ( 3 ) innovation and personalization of nephrology education across the scope of medical training. This report reviews the process, rationale, and details (the "why" and the "what") of these recommendations. In the future, ASN will summarize the "how" of implementing the final report and its 10 recommendations.

Abstract
DESCRIPTION The KDIGO 2022 Clinical Practice Guideline for Diabetes Management in Chronic Kidney Disease is an update of the 2020 guideline from Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO). METHODS The KDIGO Work Group updated the guideline, which included reviewing and grading new evidence that was identified and summarized. As in the previous guideline, the Work Group used the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) approach to appraise evidence and rate the strength of recommendations and expert judgment to develop consensus practice points. New evidence led to updating of recommendations in the chapters Comprehensive Care in Patients With Diabetes and CKD (Chapter 1) and Glucose-Lowering Therapies in Patients With T2D and CKD (Chapter 4). New evidence did not change recommendations in the chapters Glycemic Monitoring and Targets in Patients With Diabetes and CKD (Chapter 2), Lifestyle Interventions in Patients With Diabetes and CKD (Chapter 3), and Approaches to Management of Patients With Diabetes and CKD (Chapter 5). RECOMMENDATIONS The updated guideline includes 13 recommendations and 52 practice points for clinicians caring for patients with diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD). A focus on preserving kidney function and maintaining well-being is recommended using a layered approach to care, starting with a foundation of lifestyle interventions, self-management, and first-line pharmacotherapy (such as sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors) demonstrated to improve clinical outcomes. To this are added additional drugs with heart and kidney protection, such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and interventions to control risk factors for CKD progression and cardiovascular events, such as blood pressure, glycemia, and lipids.

Abstract
For the first time in many years, guideline-directed drug therapies have emerged that offer substantial cardiorenal benefits, improved quality of life and longevity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes. These treatment options include sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists. However, despite compelling evidence from multiple clinical trials, their uptake has been slow in routine clinical practice, reminiscent of the historical evolution of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and angiotensin II receptor blocker use. The delay in implementation of these evidence-based therapies highlights the many challenges to optimal CKD care, including: (i) clinical inertia; (ii) low CKD awareness; (iii) suboptimal kidney disease education among patients and providers; (iv) lack of patient and community engagement; (v) multimorbidity and polypharmacy; (vi) challenges in the primary care setting; (vii) fragmented CKD care; (viii) disparities in underserved populations; (ix) lack of public policy focused on health equity; and (x) high drug prices. These barriers to optimal cardiorenal outcomes can be ameliorated by a multifaceted approach, using the Chronic Care Model framework, to include patient and provider education, patient self-management programs, shared decision making, electronic clinical decision support tools, quality improvement initiatives, clear practice guidelines, multidisciplinary and collaborative care, provider accountability, and robust health information technology. It is incumbent on the global kidney community to take on a multidimensional perspective of CKD care by addressing patient-, community-, provider-, healthcare system- and policy-level barriers.

Abstract
The Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) 2022 Clinical Practice Guideline for Diabetes Management in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) represents a focused update of the KDIGO 2020 guideline on the topic. The guideline targets a broad audience of clinicians treating people with diabetes and CKD. Topic areas for which recommendations are updated based on new evidence include Chapter 1: Comprehensive care in patients with diabetes and CKD and Chapter 4: Glucose-lowering therapies in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and CKD. The content of previous chapters on Glycemic monitoring and targets in patients with diabetes and CKD (Chapter 2), Lifestyle interventions in patients with diabetes and CKD (Chapter 3), and Approaches to management of patients with diabetes and CKD (Chapter 5) has been deemed current and was not changed. This guideline update was developed according to an explicit process of evidence review and appraisal. Treatment approaches and guideline recommendations are based on systematic reviews of relevant studies and appraisal of the quality of the evidence, and the strength of recommendations followed the "Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation" (GRADE) approach. Limitations of the evidence are discussed, and areas for which additional research is needed are presented.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease is the most frequent cause of kidney failure, accounting for half of all cases worldwide. Moreover, deaths from diabetic kidney disease increased 106% between 1990 and 2013, with most attributed to cardiovascular disease. Recommended screening and monitoring for diabetic kidney disease are conducted in less than half of patients with diabetes. Standard-of-care treatment with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or an angiotensin receptor blocker is correspondingly low. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists, and a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid antagonist are highly effective therapies to reduce kidney and cardiovascular risks in diabetic kidney disease. However, <20% of eligible patients are receiving these agents. Critical barriers are high out-of-pocket drug costs and low reimbursement rates. Data demonstrating clinical and cost-effectiveness of diabetic kidney disease care are needed to garner payer and health care system support. The pharmaceutical industry should collaborate on value-based care by increasing access through affordable drug prices. Additionally, multidisciplinary models and communication technologies tailored to individual health care systems are needed to support optimal diabetic kidney disease care. Community outreach efforts are also central to make care accessible and equitable. Finally, it is imperative that patient preferences and priorities shape implementation strategies. Access to care and implementation of breakthrough therapies for diabetic kidney disease can save millions of lives by preventing kidney failure, cardiovascular events, and premature death. Coalitions composed of patients, families, community groups, health care professionals, health care systems, federal agencies, and payers are essential to develop collaborative models that successfully address this major public health challenge.

Abstract
Diabetes and hypertension are the most common causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the general population as well as in the Black and African American population, who also suffer from high rates of CKD and CKD progression compared to the White population. Progression of CKD can lead to kidney failure, and patients with progressive kidney disease have a high risk of premature mortality, particularly from cardiovascular disease. Screening for early detection of CKD is important as it facilitates the initiation of medications that have been shown to delay the progression of diabetes-related as well as non-diabetes-related CKD, and reduce rates of death from both kidney and cardiovascular disease. The potential adverse effects from use of some of the newer reno- and cardio-protective glucose-lowering medications, such as the sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, may be effectively avoided with detailed patient education and monitoring by the healthcare provider. It is important to note that lifestyle modification including regular exercise, diet, and smoking cessation are first-line in the management of diabetes and hypertension. When CKD occurs, co-management by providers using a comprehensive strategy may avert early complications and facilitate appropriate early referral for nephrology specialty care.
