Abstract
Over 50% of patients with diabetes mellitus, either type 1 or 2, ultimately develop hypertension as a complication. In diabetics, this further increases the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) by 2- to 3-fold and accelerates the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Arteriosclerosis, a clinical feature of hypertension in diabetics, develops and advances from a young age. Therefore, in providing treatment, it is necessary to evaluate the degree of arteriosclerosis. Diabetic patients are encouraged to strictly control their blood glucose levels. Recently developed drugs, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists, DPP-4 inhibitors and SGLT2 inhibitors, also have hypotensive actions, making them ideal for use in diabetics with hypertension. SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists reportedly suppress the onset and progression of CVD, as well as diabetic nephropathy. The possibility of hypoglycemia triggering blood pressure elevation and arrhythmia has been noted, so a key point here is not to cause hypoglycemia. In selecting hypotensive agents, we must choose types that do not aggravate insulin resistance and engage in hypotensive treatment that also considers both nocturnal and morning hypertension. In addition, facing the onset of an aging society, there is a growing need for treatments that do not cause excessive blood pressure reduction or hypoglycemia. Favorable lifelong blood pressure and glucose control are increasingly important for the treatment of diabetes accompanied by hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with heart failure plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels are correlated to urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels. We prospectively evaluated the relationship among glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR), urine and serum NGAL and NT-proBNP levels in 20 type II diabetic patients with macroalbuminuria at 4-month intervals. RESULTS Compared with 20 age, gender-matched healthy controls, diabetic patients had higher urine and serum NGAL, serum NT-proBNP and lower eGFR. The eGFR of the patients at the baseline, the 4th and the 8th month were 29.6 ± 12.0, 27.8 ± 13.7 and 22.9 ± 10.4 mL/min/1.73 m(2), respectively. No significant change in urine NGAL levels was detected (p > 0.05), whereas there were significant increases in NT-proBNP, serum NGAL and urine ACR and significant decrease in eGFR as the study progressed (p < 0.05). Both the baseline and the 4th month urine ACR were positively correlated to NT-proBNP levels measured at the same periods (r: 0.451; p: 0.046; r: 0.489; p: 0.029 respectively). In all measurements, urine ACR was negatively correlated to serum albumin levels measured at the same periods (r: -0.792; p: 0.000; r: -0.716; p: 0.000; r: -0.531; p: 0.016 respectively). None of eGFR measurements was correlated with NT-proBNP (p > 0.05). Neither serum NGAL nor urinary NGAL levels are associated with NT-proBNP (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Our findings show an association between NT-proBNP and proteinuria in type II diabetic patients with macroalbuminuria but not with serum and urine NGAL.

Abstract
Soon after the onset of type 1 diabetes, renal hypertrophy and hyperfiltration become manifest, particularly among patients who will subsequently develop diabetic nephropathy. Whether these early renal dysfunctions are involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy is currently unclear. We evaluated, during the same day, kidney volume and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in 146 patients with type 1 diabetes and normal renal function. All the individuals were then monitored for a mean of 9.5 +/- 4.4 years for the development of microalbuminuria. Kidney volume and GFR were reevaluated in a subset of 68 patients 4 years after baseline. During follow-up, microalbuminuria developed in 27 of 146 diabetic patients. At baseline, kidney volume (312.8 +/- 52.6 vs. 281.4 +/- 46.1 vs. 236.8 +/- 41.6 ml/1.73 m(2), P < 0.05) but not GFR was increased in patients predisposed to microalbuminuria. Risk of progression was higher in patients with increased kidney volume (P = 0.0058). Patients predisposed to microalbuminuria showed a stable increase in kidney volume (P = 0.003), along with a faster decline of GFR (P = 0.01). Persistent renal hypertrophy and faster decline of GFR precede the development of microalbuminuria in type 1 diabetes. These findings support the hypothesis that renal hypertrophy precedes hyperfiltration during the development of diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract
Almost two decades ago, the existence of a subset of essential hypertensive patients, who were sensitive (according to the increase in blood pressure levels) to the intake of a diet with a high salt content, was described. These patients are characterized by an increase in blood pressure and in body weight when switched from a low to a high sodium intake. The increase in body weight is due to the incapacity of the kidneys to excrete the whole intake of sodium until renal perfusion pressure (mean blood pressure) attains a level that is able to restore pressure-natriuresis relationship to values that enable the kidney to excrete the salt ingested or administered intravenously. Salt sensitivity does not seem to depend on the existence of an intrinsic renal defect to handle sodium, but on the existence of subtle abnormalities in the regulation of the sympathetic nervous system, the renin-angiotensin system or endothelial function. It is also relevant that organ damage secondary to arterial hypertension, has been shown in animal models and in hypertensive humans sensitive to a high salt intake to be significantly higher when compared with that of salt-resistant animals or humans. Interestingly, in humans, salt sensitivity has been shown to correlate with microalbuminuria, an important predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, which correlates with most of the cardiovascular risk factors commonly associated with arterial hypertension. One of these factors is insulin resistance, that usually accompanies high blood pressure in overweight and obese hypertensives. Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinism are present in a significant percentage of hypertensive patients developing cardiovascular symptoms or death. For these reasons, therapy of arterial hypertension must be directed, not only to facilitate the lowering of BP level, but also, to halt the mechanisms underlying the increase in BP, when salt intake is increased. Furthermore, therapy must preferably improve the diminished insulin sensitivity present in salt-sensitive subjects that contribute independently to increased cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
A diagnosis of diabetes mellitus can be overwhelming at first to any patient who faces it. Although most patients initially feel that learning to administer insulin by injection is diabetes' most difficult aspect, altering life-time eating habits to provide ideal nutrition is in actuality more challenging. Despite this, dieting is becoming easier every day. Research now tells us that caloric restriction to maintain normal weight improves glucose tolerance as well as weight control. Complex carbohydrates should comprise 50% to 60% of total calories. Concentrated sweets and simple sugars are to be avoided. Dietary protein should account for no more than 20% of total calories although some individuals may require further protein restriction or increased protein in the case of catabolic states. The Recommended Daily Allowance of protein is 0.8 g/kg per day. The remaining calories are ingested as fat and make up 20% to 30% of the total. Further fat restriction may be necessary in diabetics with dyslipidemias. Saturated fats are to be avoided with a polyunsaturated:saturated fat ratio of at least 0.8 and preferably 1.0. Though specifically designed for the diabetic, these recommendations provide good nutrition for healthy people as well. The many low-fat, low-cholesterol, and low-calorie alternatives provided by today's food industry provide ample variety making compliance easier all the time. After mastering the basics of glucose control and diabetic nutrition, most patients can expand their skills to include restaurant dining and travel by anticipating potential problems and preparing ahead.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Sodium retention has been advocated to give rise to hypertension in humans. Increases in blood glucose and insulin concentrations ensue in the stimulation of sodium reabsorption by the kidney. Although the combined occurrence of hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia, frequently secondary to insulin resistance with regard to carbohydrate metabolism, is a hallmark of non-insulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM), the role of these abnormalities in determining an impaired natriuresis in NIDDM is not yet fully understood. We studied sodium homeostasis in 14 control subjects and 59 NIDDM normotensive, normoalbuminuric patients who were divided into two groups with markedly impaired (Group 2 NIDDM: 30) and less severely impaired (Group 1 NIDDM: 29) insulin sensitivity during euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic (80 to 90 microU/ml plasma insulin) clamp. A hyperglycemic (9 mmol/liter plasma glucose)--nearly euinsulinemic (20 to 40 microU/ml plasma insulin) clamp was also performed in the same 14 controls and in two cohorts of 22 Group 2 and 17 Group 1 NIDDM patients. The two groups of patients had similar overnight fasting glucose levels (Group 1 NIDDM vs. Group 2 NIDDM: 176 +/- 13 vs. 185 +/- 15 mg/dl, mean +/- SE). Conversely, overnight fasting plasma insulin was significantly higher in Group 2 NIDDM than in Group 1 NIDDM patients (Group 1 NIDDM vs. Group 2 NIDDM: 12 +/- 3 vs. 18 +/- 3 microU/ml, P < 0.05). Both NIDDM Groups had higher plasma glucose and insulin than controls (75 +/- 4 mg/dl and 6 +/- 3 microU/ml). Blood pressure levels and albumin excretion rates were slightly but significantly higher in Group 2 NIDDM, but not in Group 1 NIDDM patients, than in controls.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
In diabetic nephropathy, several small vessels are frequently observed around the glomerular vascular pole in addition to the usual afferent and efferent arterioles. To elucidate the morphology of these abnormal small vessels, a three-dimensional study was performed by using computer-aided reconstruction techniques. In the present study, the renal tissue samples of 21 biopsy and 73 autopsy cases of diabetic glomerulonephropathy were examined. In addition to ordinary light microscopic observations, three series of serial sections from one autopsy and two biopsy cases were analysed. Five glomeruli with increased numbers of vessels around the vascular pole were reconstructed three-dimensionally. The vasculature in and around the glomerulus was analysed in detail by rotating and viewing in different planes via computer-generated three-dimensional images. These vessels anastomose to the lobular structure of the intraglomerular capillary network, mainly to the afferent branches through the widened vascular hilus. The distal end of the vessels anastomoses to the peritubular capillary. The increased vasculature is interpreted as neoangiogenesis resulting from diabetes, which may have a functional role in facilitating efferent blood flow from the glomerulus.

Abstract
Hypertension is known to place the individual with IDDM at high risk for the development of both renal and cardiovascular disease. Recent data suggest that aggressive antihypertensive therapy (angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibitors, prazosin, and calcium channel blockers) have significantly improved overall prognosis and long-term survival for individuals with IDDM. Because in individuals with IDDM the development of both hypertension and renal disease has its roots in childhood, it is important that early and effective antihypertensive treatment begin there.

Abstract
Urinary glycylprolyl dipeptidyl aminopeptidase (GP-DAP) concentrations were determined in 36 insulin-dependent diabetic children aged 4-18 years with a duration of diabetes ranging from 1 month to 14 years. Abnormal urinary GP-DAP concentrations were found in 19 of the 36 patients. Twelve of 27 patients without microalbuminuria also had increased urinary concentrations of GP-DAP. There was a significant correlation between urinary GP-DAP and plasma fructosamine (r = 0.52, p < 0.001). Our data suggest that urinary GP-DAP may be used as a marker for diabetic nephropathy. However, there is also a possibility that increased urinary GP-DAP concentrations are functionally related to poor metabolic control. Longitudinal studies are needed to establish the clinical usefulness of urinary GP-DAP.

Abstract
To clarify whether glomerular hyperfiltration or disturbances in renal tubular function may be early markers of the later development of nephropathy a follow-up study was performed in 34 young Type 1 diabetic patients, who had originally been investigated 12 years previously. The initial median age was 14 (range 7-18) years and median diabetes duration 7 (2-14) years. At initial examination only one of the 34 diabetic patients exhibited increased urinary albumin excretion rate. The median glomerular filtration rate was increased (136 vs 107 ml min-1 1.73 m-2; p less than 0.0001) and median threshold concentration of phosphate per litre of glomerular filtrate was decreased (1.27 vs 1.76 mmol l-1; p less than 0.0001) in the diabetic group as compared to that of 28 healthy children. At follow-up 17 patients showed increased urinary albumin excretion rate and the median glomerular filtration rate in this group was significantly lower than that of 17 patients with normal urinary albumin excretion rate (108 vs 125 ml min-1 1.73 m-2; p less than 0.05). However, no relationships were found between the increased urinary albumin excretion (incipient and/or overt diabetic nephropathy) at follow-up to either the initial glomerular filtration rate (134 vs 137 ml min-1 1.73 m-2; p greater than 0.05) or to renal tubular function assessed from urinary excretion rate of beta 2-microglobulin (0.059 vs 0.069 microgram min-1; p greater than 0.05) and the renal threshold concentration of phosphate per litre of glomerular filtrate (1.29 vs 1.22 mmol l-1; p greater than 0.05).

Abstract
Insulin-dependent diabetic patients have a large exchangeable body sodium pool, secondary to sodium retention. The pathogenesis of impaired natriuresis in insulin dependent diabetes remains to be elucidated. The present study examines the role of hyperinsulinemia, impaired atrial natriuretic release, and resistance to atrial natriuretic peptide action in determining sodium retention in normotensive and hypertensive insulin-dependent diabetic patients. Eight insulin-dependent diabetic patients had significantly higher daily sodium excretion rate (147 +/- 16 mmol/day; mean +/- SE) during conventional insulin treatment (daily plasma glucose: 11.6 +/- 1.2 mmol/liter; daily plasma insulin: 27 +/- 3 microU/ml) than during intensified insulin treatment (daily sodium excretion rate: 91 +/- 12, P less than 0.01; daily plasma glucose: 6.8 +/- 0.7, P less than 0.01; daily plasma insulin: 44 +/- 4, P less than 0.01). Daily sodium excretion rate was also significantly lower (107 +/- 13, P less than 0.01) in the same diabetic patients during intensified insulin treatment along with hyperglycemic clamp (daily plasma glucose: 12.8 +/- 0.3, NS; plasma insulin 48 +/- 4, P less than 0.01). Seven control subjects had lower extracellular liquid volume than eight insulin-dependent diabetic patients (11.0 +/- 0.8 l/1.73 m2 vs. 14.8 +/- 0.9, P less than 0.05) and also had baseline plasma atrial natriuretic peptide concentrations (18 +/- 5 pg/ml vs. 37 +/- 4, P less than 0.05). Atrial natriuretic peptide response to saline challenge was blunted in insulin-dependent diabetic patients when saline was administered on the basis of body surface area (90 mmol/1.73 m2.90 min) but not when administered on the basis of extracellular liquid volume (ECV) (8.2 mmol/liter ECV.90 min).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Electron microprobe X-ray analysis techniques were employed in order to assess the changes that occur in proximal tubular cell sodium concentration during the hyperfiltration phase of early diabetes mellitus induced by streptozotocin in Sprague Dawley rats. Intracellular rubidium accumulation following intravenous infusion of rubidium chloride was used as a marker of basolateral Na/K-ATPase activity. The diabetic animals studied had a significantly higher glomerular filtration rate compared with controls [1.44 +/- 0.07 vs. 1.00 +/- 0.07 ml min-1 (100 g body weight)-1; mean +/- SEM, P less than 0.001]. Intracellular Na concentration was significantly higher in diabetic animals (19.5 +/- 0.6 vs. 17.8 +/- 0.4 mmol/kg wet weight; P less than 0.01). Concurrent measurement of Rb demonstrated significantly higher intracellular accumulation in the proximal tubules of diabetic animals compared with control (7.9 +/- 0.5 vs. 5.5 +/- 0.5 mmol/kg wet weight; P less than 0.001). These results indicate that proximal tubular Na/K-ATPase activity is enhanced in the hyperfiltration phase of diabetes mellitus. Since, however, intracellular Na concentration is increased under these conditions, it may be inferred that apical Na entry into proximal tubular cells is stimulated beyond the rate of basal exit during the initial development of hyperfiltration. The reasons for these alterations in cellular Na transport are unclear but similar changes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of cell growth.

Abstract
To investigate mechanisms underlying GFR control in diabetes mellitus, renal hemodynamics and segmental tubular handling of sodium, using lithium clearance, were assessed in 41 insulin-dependent diabetics (IDD) treated by insulin for 11 +/- 8 days, and in 19 normal controls. Average GFR and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) were slightly but not significantly higher (136 +/- 22 vs. 123 +/- 16 ml/min.1.73 m2) in IDD than in normal subjects. GFR and ERPF were positively and strongly correlated in controls (r = 0.61, P less than 0.001) and in diabetics (r = 0.72, P less than 0.0001) indicating the marked flow dependency of GFR in both populations. After adjustment for ERPF, GFR was significantly higher in diabetics, suggesting a role of increased glomerular capillary pressure and ultrafiltration coefficient in the subset of "hyperfiltering" patients. Both fractional (FPRNa) and absolute (APRNa) proximal sodium reabsorption were significantly higher in IDD and significantly correlated with GFR. The ensuing decrease in sodium distal delivery could deactivate the tubuloglomerular feedback response and thus favor sustained vasodilation and high GFR in some diabetics. The renal effects of acute administration of drugs acting predominantly at either the pre- or the postglomerular resistance using nicardipine (N = 16) or captopril (N = 25) were further evaluated in IDD. The renal response to captopril or nicardipine was different in IDD. Whereas both drugs induced a marked decrease in renal vascular resistance, GFR was slightly decreased by captopril and was unchanged after nicardipine; these results are similar to those observed in normotensive non-diabetic subjects.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The nature of microproteinuria in the early years of insulin-dependent diabetes was investigated in a cross sectional study of 80 children with insulin-dependent diabetes and 40 normal children. Urinary excretion of three low molecular weight proteins: alpha-1-microglobulin, beta-2-microglobulin and kappa light chains was used as an index of proximal renal tubular function. The first urine samples of the morning were collected and excretion of proteins measured was expressed as ratio of protein to creatinine. There was a strong correlation between excretion of alpha-1-microglobulin and chi light chains and their excretion was significantly higher in diabetic children indicating decreased proximal tubular reabsorbtion. The excretion of beta-2-microglobulin was found to be an unsatisfactory index of proximal tubular function. Urinary albumin excretion was not significantly raised in diabetic children and did not correlate with urinary alpha-1-microglobulin or chi light chain excretion. Glycaemic control might influence proximal tubular function as both urinary glucose concentration and glycosylated haemoglobin showed correlations with urinary alpha-1-microglobulin excretion and with urinary chi light chain excretion.

Abstract
Early in the course of type 1 diabetes mellitus, hypertrophy of the kidney is a consistent finding that is easily diagnosed using current noninvasive methods, especially ultrasonography. Renal functional changes occur in association with hypertrophy, most notably glomerular hyperfiltration. The structural counterpart of this functional change is an early increase in capillary filtration surface area. In most forms of nondiabetic renal hypertrophy, kidney size is closely linked to GFR. In contrast, in diabetes, persistence of hypertrophy after the clinical onset of overt kidney disease (microalbuminuria, hypertension, decreased GFR, etc.) suggests that sustained release of one or more growth factors may continue even after kidney function declines. The fact that growth factors can act in both an autocrine and paracrine fashion raises the possibility that the local effects of such substances may act as local mediators of kidney growth. Failure of renal hypertrophy to reverse following strict glycemic control for a few months may turn out to be an important prognostic indicator of future progression of the renal disease, but this remains to be established. Prospective studies of kidney size in patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes, using accurate noninvasive methods, may be helpful in establishing whether irreversible ("autonomous") hypertrophy of the kidney is indeed a useful prognostic indicator. As therapies are developed that target the different microvascular complications of diabetes (retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy), a noninvasive estimation of kidney size may be a cost-effective method of predicting ultimate renal involvement. Since microalbuminuria occurs relatively late in the disease process, early and persistent hypertrophy of the kidney may become a useful prognostic test in the earliest stages of the disease.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the administration of acetoacetic and hydrochloric acids in a group of control and Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients influenced renal haemodynamics. Renal plasma flow increased from 657 +/- 88 to 762 +/- 81 ml X min-1. 1.73 m-2 in diabetic patients (p less than 0.01) and from 590 +/- 71 to 691 +/- 135 in control subjects (p less than 0.01). Glomerular filtration rate increased from 135 +/- 9 to 180 +/- 8 ml X min-1. 1.73 m-2 in diabetic patients (p less than 0.001) and from 117 +/- 8 to 145 +/- 7 in control subjects (p less than 0.01). Similar effects on renal haemodynamics, even if less pronounced, were observed with low dose acetoacetic but not with hydrochloric acid infusion. Total protein, beta 2-microglobulin but not albumin excretion rates were increased by acetoacetic acid. We conclude that an acute increase in blood concentration of ketone bodies within the range found in diabetic patients with poor metabolic control increases renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate both in control subjects and diabetic patients and causes a tubular proteinuria.

Abstract
Measurements of the ouabain-sensitive Na,K-ATPase activity in the kidney was performed on female Wistar rats after 50 days' duration of diabetes, and compared to an age-matched control group. The measurements showed a 23% increase in the Na,K-ATPase activity per mg protein, and a 66% increase in the total Na,K-ATPase activity in the whole kidney. The increase Na,K-ATPase activity can be seen as a response to the increase in tubular sodium load which is a consequence of the increased glomerular filtration rate in diabetes.
