Change of renal function after short-term use of cardioprotective agents in patients with type 2 diabetes is not accurately assessed by the change of estimated glomerular filtration rate: an observational study
The agreement between eGFR by CKD-EPI and mGFR is modest and the change of renal function after short-term pharmacological intervention is not accurately and precisely reflected by the change of eGFR in patients with T2D in the early stage of their disease (Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome)
Assessment of the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D and albuminuria in type 2 diabetes mellitus
The current study evaluates the relation between vitamin D deficiency and the prevalence of albuminuria in the setting of diabetes. Overall, the prevalence of macroalbuminuria increased when the 25OHD serum level was less than 20 ng/ml (BMC Endocrine Disorders)
Association Between the Tissue and Circulating Advanced Glycation End-Products and the Micro- and Macrovascular Complications in Type 1 Diabetes: The DIABAGE Study
Skin autofluorescence appears to be a useful marker for investigating both micro- and macrovascular complications in T1D. In this study, pentosidine was associated with macroangiopathy and MGH1 with nephropathy among the circulating AGEs. Furthermore, the correlations between PWV and AGEs may suggest their value in early prediction of vascular complications in T1D (Diabetes Therapy )
Prevalence, outcomes, and cost of chronic kidney disease in a contemporary population of 2·4 million patients from 11 countries: The CaReMe CKD study
We estimate that CKD is present in one out of ten adults. These individuals experience significant adverse outcomes with associated costs. The prevalence of CKD is underestimated when using diagnostic codes alone. There is considerable public health potential in diagnosing CKD and providing treatments to those currently undiagnosed (The Lancet)
Genome-wide meta-analysis and omics integration identifies novel genes associated with diabetic kidney disease
Altogether, the results point to novel genes contributing to the pathogenesis of DKD (Diabetologia)
Effect of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists on albuminuria in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta-analysis
This meta-analysis indicates that GLP-1RAs are associated with a significant reduction in albuminuria in adult patients with T2DM when compared with placebo (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Review of SGLT2i for the Treatment of Renal Complications: Experience in Patients with and Without T2D
In this article, we briefly review the different mechanisms of action that may explain the renal beneficial effects of SGLT2i and disclose the results of the key renal outcome trials and the subsequent update of related clinical guidelines (Diabetes Therapy)
Fracture Risk of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors in Chronic Kidney Disease
In this cohort study of older adults, starting a SGLT2 inhibitor versus DPP-4 inhibitor was not associated with a higher risk of skeletal fracture, regardless of eGFR (Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology)
Incidence and factors associated with acute kidney injury among children with type 1 diabetes hospitalized with diabetic ketoacidosis. A prospective study
AKI is common among T1DM children hospitalized with DKA. Younger age, low GCS at hospital admission and increased serum chloride level during DKA management were associated with increased risk for moderate to severe AKI development (Pediatric Diabetes)
Mediators of ertugliflozin effects on heart failure and kidney outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes
In these analyses from the VERTIS CV trial, markers of volume status and haemoconcentration and/or haematopoiesis were the strongest mediators of the effect of ertugliflozin on reducing risk of HHF and composite kidney outcomes in the early and average change periods (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Incidence rate patterns, cumulative incidence, and time trends for moderate and severe albuminuria in individuals diagnosed with type 1 diabetes aged 0–14 years: a population-based retrospective cohort study
Our analyses show that the cumulative incidence of severe albuminuria has decreased between 1970–79 and 1980–99; however, whether this decrease solely denotes a delay in albuminuria, or also a true prevention of albuminuria, needs to be investigated further. Nevertheless, diabetic kidney disease remains a significant complication of type 1 diabetes. Due to the robust association of diabetic kidney disease with premature mortality, novel therapies to improve prognosis are needed (The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology)
Effect of dapagliflozin on kidney and cardiovascular outcomes by baseline KDIGO risk categories: a post hoc analysis of the DAPA-CKD trial
The consistent benefits of dapagliflozin on kidney and cardiovascular outcomes across KDIGO risk categories indicate that dapagliflozin is efficacious and safe across a wide spectrum of kidney disease severity (Diabetologia)
Efficacy and safety of cotadutide, a dual GLP-1 and glucagon receptor agonist, in a randomized phase 2a study of patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease
We established the efficacy of cotadutide in this patient population, with significantly improved postprandial glucose control and reduced bodyweight versus placebo. Reductions in UACR suggest potential benefits of cotadutide on kidney function, supporting further evaluation in larger, longer-term clinical trials (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
Sodium-glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors and Risk of Hyperkalemia in People with Type 2 diabetes: A Meta-analysis of Individual Participant Data from Randomized Controlled Trials
SGLT2 inhibitors reduce the risk of serious hyperkalemia in people with type 2 diabetes at high cardiovascular risk and/or with CKD, without increasing the risk of hypokalemia
Efficacy of liraglutide in patients with diabetic nephropathy: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Liraglutide reduced the levels of Blood Glucose, BMI, renal outcome indicators, and serum inflammatory factors of patients with T2DN, suggesting the beneficial effects of liraglutide on renal function (BMC Endocrine Disorders)
Effects of Pentoxifylline on Serum Markers of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes
Add-on pentoxifylline to losartan may have more effective anti-inflammatory and anti-albuminuric roles and therefore may be more applicable in the management of diabetic nephropathy compared with high-dose losartan alone (Diabetes Therapy)
Coming Full Circle: Prioritizing Early Glycemic Control to Reduce Microvascular and Macrovascular Complications in People With Type 2 Diabetes
Analysis from the Dapagliflozin Effect on Cardiovascular Events trial (DECLARE-TIMI 58) on the association of baseline HbA1c with cardiovascular and kidney outcomes (Diabetes Care)
Renoprotective effect of additional sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor therapy in type 2 diabetes patients with rapid decline and preserved renal function
Early intervention with SGLT2i may have renoprotective effects in T2D patients with rapid decline and preserved renal function (Journal of Diabetes Investigation)
Modifying chronic kidney disease progression with the mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist finerenone in patients with type 2 diabetes
These studies have established finerenone, a novel nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, as an effective treatment for kidney and CV protection and welcomed addition to the pillars of treatment to slow CKD progression in patients with T2D (Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism)
