[PMID: 37789020 PMCID: PMC10547755 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43766-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with proteinuria can be diabetic nephropathy (DN), diabetic complicated with non-diabetic kidney disease (NDKD), or DN with NDKD. Among these membranous nephropathy accounted for a large proportion of DN with NDRD. At present, serum anti-phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody is widely used in the diagnosis and evaluation of therapy in idiopathic membranous nephropathy, our study aimed to investigate the diagnostic significance of anti-PLA2R antibody in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with proteinuria, providing a method for patients with contraindications of kidney biopsy. Eighty-seven T2DM patients with proteinuria who went on kidney biopsy were divided into the DN group, idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) group, and others group according to their pathological results. In our study, 52.87% and 28.74% of patients were found to have IMN and diabetic nephropathy respectively. The levels of anti-PLA2R antibody, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were higher in the IMN group, while the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy (DR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and HbA1c were higher in the DN group. For T2DM patients with proteinuria, anti-PLA2R antibody (AUC = 0.904, 95%CI 0.838-0.970) has a high diagnostic value for IMN. The duration of diabetes (OR = 0.798, P = 0.030), eGFR level (OR = 1.030, P = 0.024), and positive anti-PLA2R antibody (OR = 72.727, P < 0.001) favor the diagnosis of IMN, while DR (OR = 50.234, P < 0.001), SBP (OR = 1.041, P = 0.030), and negative anti-PLA2R antibody (OR = 0.008, P = 0.001) is beneficial to the diagnosis of DN. Our study found that NDKD is not uncommon in patients with T2DM and proteinuria, and IMN was the main pathological type. Positive anti-PLA2R antibody has a strong accuracy in the diagnosis of IMN in patients with T2DM and proteinuria.

Koyama AK, Lundeen E, McKeever Bullard K, Pavkov ME. Prevalence of Anemia and Associated All-Cause Mortality Among Adults With Diabetes: The Role of Chronic Kidney Disease. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2023; 200:110695. [PMID: 37156427 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2023.110695] [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: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/10/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Among adults with diabetes in the United States, we evaluated anemia prevalence by CKD status as well as the role of CKD and anemia, as potential risk factors for all-cause mortality. METHODS In a retrospective cohort study, we included 6,718 adult participants with prevalent diabetes from the 2003-March 2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), a nationally representative sample of the non-institutionalized civilian population in the United States. Cox regression models evaluated the role of anemia and CKD, alone or combined, as predictors of all-cause mortality. RESULTS Anemia prevalence among adults with diabetes and CKD was 20%. Having anemia or CKD alone, compared with having neither condition, was significantly associated with all-cause mortality (anemia: HR=2.10 [1.49-2.96], CKD: HR=2.24 [1.90-2.64]). Having both conditions conferred a greater potential risk (HR=3.41 [2.75-4.23]). CONCLUSIONS Approximately one-quarter of the adult US population with diabetes and CKD also has anemia. The presence of anemia, with or without CKD, is associated with a two- to threefold increased risk of death by compared with adults who have neither condition, suggesting that anemia may be a strong predictor of death among adults with diabetes.

Whether Renal Pathology Is an Independent Predictor for End-Stage Renal Disease in Diabetic Kidney Disease Patients with Nephrotic Range Proteinuria: A Biopsy-Based Study. J Clin Med 2022; 12:jcm12010088. [PMID: 36614886 PMCID: PMC9820945 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12010088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Revised: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Aims: To investigate whether renal pathology is an independent predictor for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in diabetic kidney diseases (DKD) with nephrotic range proteinuria. Methods: A total of 199 DKD patients with nephrotic range proteinuria underwent renal biopsy and were divided into an ESRD group and a non-ESRD group. A Kaplan−Meier analysis was used to compare renal survival rate, and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses were used to determine the predictors of the ESRD. Results: The mean age of included patients was 51.49 ± 9.12 years and 113 patients (56.8%) progressed to ESRD. The median follow-up period was 16 (12−28) months. The glomerular pathology class III is the most common type (54.3%). In the Kaplan−Meier analysis, compared with patients without ESRD, patients with ESRD had a longer duration of diabetes (≥6 years), lower eGFR (<60 mL/min/1.73 m2), lower albumin (<30 g/L), lower hemoglobin (<120 g/L), and a higher grade of glomerular stage (class III + IV vs. class I + II) (p < 0.05). The hemoglobin and e-GFR, but not the histopathological damage, were significantly associated with a higher risk of ESRD in both the univariate and multivariate Cox analyses. Conclusions: In patients with diabetic kidney disease characterized by nephrotic range proteinuria, histopathological damage (glomerular alterations, interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA), interstitial inflammation, and arteriolar hyalinosis) is not associated with poor renal outcomes, but hemoglobin and e-GFR could predict poor renal outcomes.

The Prevalence and Pattern of Anaemia in Type 2 Diabetics in Ogbomosho, An Urban Community in Southwestern Nigeria. Anemia 2022; 2022:7650015. [PMID: 36340870 PMCID: PMC9629922 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7650015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Revised: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Anaemia is a frequent finding in type 2 diabetes, but it is typically seen with established chronic kidney disease and renal insufficiency. Cases, where anaemia predates renal insufficiency, are associated with a worse prognosis for the type 2 diabetes patient and an increased susceptibility to complications. This study aims to determine the prevalence and type of anaemia in persons living with type 2 diabetes without established chronic kidney disease in our environment. The study was a hospital-based cross-sectional study that involved 141 people with known type 2 diabetes as the study group and 140 healthy persons as controls. The study population and the controls were selected using a multistage sampling technique. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered semistructured questionnaire at the Endocrinology clinic, Bowen University Teaching Hospital, Ogbomosho. The data obtained were analyzed using the IBM SPSS version 23.0 (p value ≤0.05 was considered significant). The biochemical (fasting lipids, HBA1C, FBG, serum albumin, creatinine, urea, uric acid, and insulin) and haematological (FBC and red cell indices; PVC, MCV, MCH, MCHC, and RCDW) parameters of the respondents were analyzed using standard methods. The study showed a statistically significant difference in the prevalence of anaemia among subjects, 69.2% as compared to 30.8% of the control group. Normochromic normocytic anaemia was predominant among the subjects, whereas microcytic hypochromic anaemia was the predominant type in the controls. There was no statistically significant difference between MCV and MCHC of both subjects and controls. There was a positive correlation between the incidence of anaemia and the duration of diabetes among the subjects. More people with type 2 diabetes are now living longer, and the addition of haematological parameters should be part of their baseline investigations to aid in the early detection of complications.

Biomarkers of Glyco-Metabolic Control in Hemodialysis Patients: Glycated Hemoglobin vs. Glycated Albumin. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2021; 57:medicina57070712. [PMID: 34356993 PMCID: PMC8307856 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57070712] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) dosage is considered the gold standard in glycol-metabolic monitoring, but it presents limits, which can underestimate the glycemia trend. In this regard, it was introduced the glycated albumin (GA). The aim of the study is to verify the predictivity of the GA compared to HbA1c in identifying glyco-metabolic alterations in non-diabetic and diabetic hemodialysis (HD) patients. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, we conducted a multicenter study involving one analysis laboratory and six dialysis centers in the Lazio region (Rome, Italy). Both diabetic and non-diabetic HD patients represent the study population, and the protocol included five time points. Results: The analyzed data highlighted the ability of GA to predict changes in glycemic metabolism in HD patients, and GA values are not significantly influenced, like HbA1c, by dialysis therapy itself and by comorbidities of the uremic state, such as normochromic and normocytic anemia. Thus, GA seems to reflect early glyco-metabolic alterations, both in patients with a previous diagnosis of diabetes and in subjects without diabetes mellitus. As part of this study, we analyzed two HD patients (one diabetic and one non-diabetic) in which GA was more predictive of glycol-metabolic alterations compared to HbA1c. Our study confirms the need to compare classical biomarkers used for the monitoring of glyco-metabolic alterations with new ones, likely more reliable and effective in specific subgroups of patients in which the classic biomarkers can be influenced by the preexisting pathological conditions. Conclusions: In conclusion, our evidence highlights that in uremic patients, GA shows a better ability to predict glyco-metabolic alterations allowing both an earlier diagnosis of DM and a prompt modulation of the hypoglycemic therapy, thus improving the clinical management of these patients.

Abstract
The management of anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is often challenging. In particular, for patients with underlying inflammation, comorbid type 2 diabetes or cancer, those hospitalized, and recipients of a kidney transplant, the management of anemia may be suboptimal. Responsiveness to iron and/or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, the mainstay of current therapy, may be reduced and the risk of adverse reactions to treatment is increased in these difficult-to-manage patients with anemia of CKD. This review discusses the unique patient and disease characteristics leading to complications and suboptimal treatment response. New treatment options in clinical development, such as hypoxia-inducible factor-prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitors, may be particularly useful for difficult-to-treat patients. In clinical studies, HIF-PH inhibitors provided increased hemoglobin levels and improved iron utilization in anemic patients with non-dialysis-dependent and dialysis-dependent CKD, and preliminary data suggest that HIF-PH inhibitors may be equally effective in patients with or without underlying inflammation. The availability of new treatment options, including HIF-PH inhibitors, may improve treatment outcomes in difficult-to-manage patients with anemia of CKD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dysbiosis of gut microbiota impairs the homeostasis of immune and metabolic systems. Although previous studies have revealed the correlation between gut microbiota and various diseases, the function between gut microbiota and diabetic nephropathy (DN) has not been discovered distinctly. In this study, we tried to investigate the profile and function of gut microbiota in DN. METHODS A total of 100 people were enrolled in this study. Twenty were healthy people, 20 were diabetes patients, and 60 were DN patients. The DN patients were divided into three stages including stage III, IV, and V. We conducted taxonomic analyses in different groups. The distributions of phyla, classes, orders, families, and genera in different groups and samples were investigated. We also evaluated the correlations between clinical parameters and gut microbiota in 60 DN patients. RESULTS The gut microbiota in the healthy group, diabetes group, and DN group had 1764 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) in total. The healthy group had 1034 OTUs, the diabetes group had 899 OTUs, and the DN group had 1602 OTUs. The diversity of gut microbiota in the stage III DN group was smaller than that in the other groups. 24-h urinary protein was positively correlated with Alistipes and Subdoligranulum, cholesterol was positively correlated with Bacteroides and Lachnoclostridium, and estimated glomerular filtration rate was negatively correlated with Ruminococcus torques group. DISCUSSION The gut microbiota might play an important role in the development and pathogenesis of DN. A change in gut microbiota diversity is correlated with disease progression. Some kinds of gut microbiota including Alistipes, Bacteroides, Subdoligranulum, Lachnoclostridium, and Ruminococcus torques group might be detrimental factors in DN.

Abstract
Anemia is a frequent comorbidity of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with a considerable burden because of decreased patient health-related quality of life and increased healthcare resource utilization. Based on observational data, anemia is associated with an increased risk of CKD progression, cardiovascular events, and all-cause mortality. The current standard of care includes oral or intravenous iron supplementation, erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, and red blood cell transfusion. However, each of these therapies has its own set of population-specific patient concerns, including increased risk of cardiovascular disease, thrombosis, and mortality. Patients receiving dialysis or those who have concurrent diabetes or high blood pressure may be at greater risk of developing these complications. In particular, treatment with high doses of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents has been associated with increased rates of hospitalization, cardiovascular events, and mortality. Resistance to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents remains a therapeutic challenge in a subset of patients. Hypoxia-inducible factor transcription factors, which regulate several genes involved in erythropoiesis and iron metabolism, can be stabilized by a new class of drugs that act as inhibitors of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl-hydroxylase enzymes to promote erythropoiesis and elevate hemoglobin levels. Here, we review the burden of anemia of chronic kidney disease, the shortcomings of current standard of care, and the potential practical advantages of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl-hydroxylase inhibitors in the treatment of patients with anemia of CKD.

Abstract
Anemia is the major complication resulting from chronic kidney disease (CKD) and also a risk factor for cardiovascular events and a poor quality of life (QoL). Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the major cause of CKD. Initially, insulin resistance has been reported to increase erythropoiesis, but it might be a minor issue. DKD-related anemia developed earlier and was more severe than non-DKD-related anemia based on more complicated mechanisms, including greater bleeding tendency associated with antiplatelet effect, less O2 sensing due to autonomic neuropathy or renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor use, inhibitory effect of inflammatory cytokines, urinary loss of erythropoietin (EPO), and poor response to EPO. In DKD patients, prompt correction of anemia allows for a better cardiovascular outcome and QoL, which are similar to the promising effect of anemia correction in CKD patients. However, current evidence recommended that the avoidance of a high or normalized hemoglobin (Hb) level has been suggested in the treatment of anemia in DKD patients. Despite that EPO has a pleotropic effect on renal protection from animal studies, the renal benefit was less evident in CKD and DKD patients. Recently, the antidiabetic agent, sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), has been reported to exhibit the renal benefits due to the tubulo-glomerular feedback in addition to sugar control. It may also be due to less renal ischemic through higher EPO levels, followed by higher Hb levels. More studies are needed to clarify the link between the renal benefit of SGLT2i and EPO production.

Abstract
The safety profile of new antidiabetic xanthine derivatives with thiazolidine‑4‑one scaffold (6, 7) and their new chitosan based formulations (CS-6, CS-7), administrated to diabetic rats, have been evaluated in terms of biochemical markers of liver and kidney function as well as of hematological markers. The effect on lipid profile and clinic parameters (body weight, food and water intake) has been also evaluated. The treatment of diabetic rats with xanthine derivatives (6, 7) and chitosan based formulations (CS-6, CS-7) was associated with lower liver enzymes (AST, ALT, LDH) and bilirubin (direct, total) values compared to the non-treated diabetic rats, that means the tested derivatives/formulations have improved the liver function injured in diabetes mellitus conditions. Also the kidney biochemical markers (creatinine, uric acid, urea) were significantly decreased in diabetic rats treated with 6, 7 and chitosan microparticles (CS-6, CS-7). The values of biochemical markers of liver and kidney functions were even better than the values recorded for pioglitazone, used as standard antidiabetic drug. The improving effect on kidney function was proved by the histopathological study. Moreover, the xanthine derivatives and their chitosan based formulation were associated with improved hematological markers compared to the non-treated diabetic rats which mean the improving of the hemorheological state. These results support the safety profile of new xanthine derivatives with thiazolidine‑4‑one scaffold (6, 7) and their new chitosan based formulations (CS-6, CS-7) and their potential applications for the treatment of diabetes mellitus syndrome.

Abstract
Introduction: Anemia is common in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and diabetes is a major leading risk factor for it. In Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD), it worsens more, which further increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Despite of adequate iron stores anemia persist, which may be due to impaired iron release from body stores that is unable to meet the demand for erythropoiesis (also called reticuloendothelial cell iron blockade). High parathyroid hormone (PTH) along with vitamin D, may be attributable for anemia. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 150 advanced (Stage 4 & 5) pre dialyzed DKD patients (GFR <30ml/min/1.73 m2), aged 40-70 years were included over a period of 1 year. Any other concomitant illness/ drugs leading to anemia were excluded. Serum samples were collected and urea, creatinine, hemoglobin, iron profile, vitamin D, iPTH, uric acid, calcium, phosphorous and albumin levels were measured. A data base was constructed on Microsoft Excel 2007 and statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS software version 20.0 (IBM, NY, USA). Results: Stage 5 DKD had more pronounced anemia compared to stage 4 DKD (P < 0.001). Hemoglobin (Hb) was inversely correlated with iPTH (r = -0.74, P < 0.001) and was associated with vitamin D deficiency (r = 0.51, P < 0.001) but not with serum ferritin. DKD patients with low eGFR (r = -0.6, P < 0.001), vitamin D (r = -0.43, P < 0.001) and serum calcium (r = -0.37, P < 0.001) had higher iPTH. Secondary hyperparathyroidism (beta=-0.005; P < 0.001) and Vitamin D (beta=0.053; P < 0.01) were strong predictor for Hb while parameters of iron profile was not statistically significant. Conclusion: An efficient control of PTH hypersecretion is therefore required to achieve a better management of anemia as well as mineral metabolism in DKD patients.
