OBJECTIVE--To assess the effectiveness of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition in preventing the development of diabetic nephropathy (albuminuria greater than 300 mg/24h). DESIGN--Open randomised controlled study of four years'' duration. SETTING--Outpatient diabetic clinic in tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS--44 normotensive (mean blood pressure 127/78 (SD 12/10) mm Hg) insulin dependent diabetic patients with persistent microalbuminuria (30-300 mg/24h). INTERVENTIONS--The treatment group (n = 21) was initially given captopril (25 mg/24 h). The dose was increased to 100 mg/24 h during the first 16 months and thiazide was added after 30 months. The remaining 23 patients were left untreated. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Albuminuria, kidney function, development of diabetic nephropathy (albuminuria greater than 300 mg/24 h), and arterial blood pressure. RESULTS--Clinical and laboratory variables were comparable at baseline. Urinary excretion of albumin was gradually reduced from 82 (66-106) to 57 (39-85) mg/24 h (geometric mean (95% confidence interval)) in the captopril treated group, whereas an increase from 105(77-153) to 166 (83-323) mg/24 h occurred in the control group (p less than 0.05). Seven of the untreated patients progressed to diabetic nephropathy, whereas none of the captopril treated patients developed clinical overt diabetic nephropathy (p less than 0.05). Systemic blood pressure, glomerular filtration rate, haemoglobin A1c concentration, and urinary excretion of sodium and urea remained practically unchanged in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS--The findings suggest that angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition postpones the development of clinical overt diabetic nephropathy in normotensive insulin dependent diabetic patients with persistent microalbuminuria.  相似文献

STUDY OBJECTIVE--To assess the effectiveness of inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme in preventing diabetic nephropathy. DESIGN--Randomised follow up study of normotensive diabetics with persistent microalbuminuria (30-300 mg/24 hours) treated with enalapril or its matched placebo for one year. Double blind for first six months, single blind for last six months. SETTING--Diabetic clinic in tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS--Treatment group and placebo group each comprised 10 normotensive diabetics with persistent microalbuminuria. INTERVENTIONS--Treatment group was given enalapril 20 mg daily and controls matched placebo. Patients were given antihypertensive treatment after one year. END POINT--Albumin excretion, arterial pressure, and renal function. MAIN RESULTS--In last three months of trial three of 10 patients taking placebo had diabetic nephropathy (albumin excretion greater than 300 mg/24 hours). No patients taking enalapril developed nephropathy and five showed normal albumin excretion (less than 30 mg/24 hours) (p = 0.005, Mann-Whitney test). Mean arterial pressure was reduced by enalapril throughout study (p less than 0.005) but increased linearly with placebo (p less than 0.05). Albumin excretion decreased linearly with enalapril but not placebo. An increase in albumin excretion with placebo was positively related to the increase in mean arterial pressure (r = 0.709, p less than 0.05, Spearman''s rank test). With enalapril total renal resistances and fractional albumin clearances improved progressively (time effect, p = 0.0001). CONCLUSION--Inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme prevents development of nephropathy in normotensive diabetics with persistent microalbuminuria. This may be due to reduction in intraglomerular pressure and to prevention of increased systemic blood pressure. Future studies should compare long term effects of inhibitors of converting enzyme with other antihypertensive drugs.  相似文献

The effects of a long term reduction in blood pressure on the kidney function of normotensive diabetic patients who had persistent microalbuminuria (30-300 mg albumin/24 hours) were studied in two groups of 10 such patients before and during six months of treatment with either 20 mg enalapril or placebo daily. Treatments were assigned randomly in a double blind fashion. Before treatment both groups had similar clinical characteristics, weight, diet, total glycosylated haemoglobin, median albumin excretion rate (enalapril group 124 mg/24 h, placebo group 81 mg/24 h), and mean arterial pressure (enalapril group 100 (SD 8) mm Hg, placebo group 99 (6) mm Hg). During treatment weight, urinary urea excretion, and total glycosylated haemoglobin remained unchanged. The mean arterial pressure decreased in the enalapril group but not in the placebo group (enalapril group 90 (10) mm Hg, placebo group 98 (8) mm Hg). The median albumin excretion rate also fell in the enalapril group but not in the placebo group (enalapril group 37 mg/24 h, placebo group 183 mg/24 h.) The glomerular filtration rate rose in the enalapril group from 130 (23) ml/min/1.73 m2 to 141 (24) ml/min/1.73 m2, and total renal resistances and fractional albumin clearance decreased while fractional albumin clearance increased in the placebo group. These results show that in patients who have diabetes but not hypertension a reduction in blood pressure by inhibition of converting enzyme for six months can reduce persistent microalbuminuria, perhaps by decreasing the intraglomerular pressure.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To compare the effects of sodium depletion and of angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibition on microalbuminuria in insulin dependent diabetes. DESIGN--Randomised, double blind, double dummy parallel study of normotensive diabetic patients with persistent microalbuminuria (30-300 mg/24 h) treated with enalapril or hydrochlorothiazide for one year after a three month, single blind placebo period. SETTING--Diabetic clinic in a tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS--10 diabetic patients with low microalbuminuria (30-99 mg/24 h) and 11 with high microalbuminuria (100-300 mg/24 h). INTERVENTIONS--11 subjects (six with low microalbuminuria, five with high microalbuminuria) were given enalapril 20 mg plus placebo hydrochlorothiazide once daily and 10 (four with low microalbuminuria, six with high microalbuminuria) hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg plus placebo enalapril once daily. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Monthly assessment of urinary albumin excretion and mean arterial pressure; plasma active renin and aldosterone concentrations and renal function studies at 0, 6, and 12 months. RESULTS--Median urinary albumin excretion decreased from 59 (range 37-260) to 38 (14-146) mg/24 h with enalapril and from 111 (33-282) to 109 (33-262) mg/24 h with hydrochlorothiazide (analysis of variance, p = 0.0436). During the last three months of treatment with enalapril five patients had persistent normoalbuminuria (2-3 times below 30 mg/24 h), five low microalbuminuria, and one high microalbuminuria; in the hydrochlorothiazide group one had normoalbuminuria, three low microalbuminuria, and six high microalbuminuria (chi 2 test = 6.7; p = 0.03). Mean arterial pressure did not differ before (98 (SD 7) with enalapril v 97 (9) mm Hg with hydrochlorothiazide) or during treatment (88 (7) with enalapril v 90 (7) mm Hg with hydrochlorothiazide (analysis of variance, p = 0.5263)). Glomerular filtration rate did not vary. The aldosterone to active renin ratio was decreased by angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibition and increased by sodium depletion, showing treatment efficacy. CONCLUSION--Angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibition by enalapril effectively reduces microalbuminuria in normotensive diabetic patients whereas hydrochlorothiazide is not effective. Changes in blood pressure and activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system may contribute to these different effects.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES--To compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerance of enalapril and nifedipine in hypertensive patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes. DESIGN--One year double blind follow up of patients randomly allocated to either enalapril or nifedipine with matching placebos for the alternative drug. SETTING--Metabolic Investigation Unit, Hong Kong. SUBJECTS--102 patients were randomised: 52 to nifedipine and 50 to enalapril. At baseline 44 patients had normoalbuminuria, 36 microalbuminuria, and 22 macroalbuminuria. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Blood pressure, albuminuria, and parameters of renal function and glycaemic control. RESULTS--In patients who completed one year''s treatment the median dose required by the nifedipine group (n = 49) was 60 mg/day; seven (14%) required additional diuretics. Of 41 patients given enalapril, 37 required the maximum dose (40 mg/day) and 27 (76%) required diuretics. At one year mean arterial blood pressures were similar in both groups. Albuminuria fell by 54% in the enalapril group and 11% in the nifedipine group (p = 0.006). Fractional albumin clearance ratio fell by 47% in the enalapril group and increased by 3% in the nifedipine group (p = 0.009). Creatinine clearance fell similarly in both groups but plasma creatinine concentration was increased by 20% in the enalapril group versus 8% in the nifedipine group (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION--Patients taking enalapril often required diuretics to control blood pressure. Enalapril reduced proteinuria significantly more than nifedipine in the microalbuminuric and macroalbuminuric patients but increased plasma creatinine concentrations. Longer follow up is required to clarify the importance of enalapril''s antiproteinuric effect.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is able to determine functional and structural renal alterations and plasma levels of this vasoconstrictor peptide are increased in diabetic patients. In a selected group of type 2 normotensive diabetic patients with microalbuminuria, we investigated circulating ET-1 levels compared to a control group and verified whether there is a relationship between ET-1 levels and albumin excretion rate in diabetics. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Thirty-two microalbuminuric type 2 diabetic patients (12 males and 20 females; mean age 57 +/- 8 years) without hypertension, renal failure, hypercholesterolemia or atherosclerotic damage were selected. The control group was made up of 28 healthy subjects matched for sex and age. Blood pressure, creatinine clearance, serum cholesterol and plasma ET-1 values were determined in diabetic and control group. In diabetic patients, glycosilated hemoglobin and urinary albumin excretion rate were also assayed. Mean ET-1 values in diabetics and controls were compared using Student's t-test. Linear regression test was done to relate two variables. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05. RESULTS: Mean ET-1 values were significantly higher in the diabetic group than in controls (11.77 +/- 1.16 pg/ml vs 8.9 +/- 2.1 pg/ml; p<0.05). No relationship (p>0.05) was found between circulating ET-1 and blood pressure, creatinine clearance, serum cholesterol and metabolic control in diabetics. There was a significant positive correlation (r=0.403; p=0.03) between plasma ET-1 levels and albumin excretion rate in diabetic patients. CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed that circulating ET-1 values were increased in microalbuminuric, normotensive, type 2 diabetic patients and correlated with albumin excretion rate. These findings confirm that endothelial dysfunction, as expressed by ET-1 levels, occurs early in these patients and support the hypothesis of a potential role for this peptide in development of microalbuminuria in diabetic nephropathy.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To assess whether inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme protects kidney function in diabetic nephropathy. DESIGN--Open, randomised follow up study of normotensive insulin dependent diabetics with nephropathy either treated or not with captopril for one year. SETTING--Outpatient diabetic clinic in a tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS--32 Normotensive patients with insulin dependent diabetes complicated by nephropathy who were randomised either to the treatment group (n = 15) or to the control group (n = 17). INTERVENTIONS--The treatment group was given captopril (25-100 mg/day) for 12 months, the average dose during the second six months of the study being 40 mg daily. Controls were not treated. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Albuminuria, arterial blood pressure, and the glomerular filtration rate. RESULTS--Mean arterial blood pressure fell by 3 (SE 2) mm Hg in the captopril treated group and rose by 6 (1) mm Hg in the controls. In addition, albuminuria declined by 11% in the captopril treated group and rose by 55% in the controls, fractional albumin clearance fell by 17% in the captopril treated group and increased by 66% in the controls, and the glomerular filtration rate declined by 3.1 (2.8)ml/min/1.73 m2 with captopril and by 6.4 (3.1) ml/min/1.73 m2 in the controls. CONCLUSION--Inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme arrests the progressive rise in albuminuria in normotensive insulin dependent diabetics with nephropathy.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To ascertain which factors determine the progression from very low rates of albumin excretion to persistent microalbuminuria in patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. DESIGN--A 10 year prospective study of a cohort of diabetic patients. SETTING--Outpatient department of the Portsmouth District Hospitals. SUBJECTS--97 patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus who were initially free of microalbuminuria and hypertension. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE--Urinary albumin: creatinine ratio. RESULTS--Eight of the 97 patients had developed microalbuminuria (urinary albumin:creatinine ratio > 3 mg/mmol in three consecutive early morning samples) by the 10 year follow up. The group who developed microalbuminuria had higher baseline log10 plasma glucose concentrations (mean (SD), 1.210 (0.122) v 0.984 (0.196) mmol/l, P < 0.001) and glycated haemoglobin concentrations (1.112% (0.069%) v 0.997% (0.076%), P < 0.001) and a younger age at onset of diabetes (10.0 (5.5) v 15.6 (7.8) years, P < 0.05). There was no difference in baseline duration of diabetes, smoking, sex, insulin dose, body mass index, serum creatinine concentration, or systolic, diastolic, or mean arterial blood pressure between the two groups. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that urinary albumin:creatinine ratio at 10 years was influenced by initial albumin:creatinine ratio (P = 0.006), initial glycated haemoglobin concentration (P = 0.002), and duration of diabetes (P = 0.045). Genotype for angiotensin converting enzyme was not related to the development of microalbuminuria nor, in a larger group of patients, the presence of any degree of diabetic nephropathy. CONCLUSION--In patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus the progression of minimal albuminuria and the development of microalbuminuria is determined primarily by poor long term glycaemic control. There is a weaker relation with longer duration of disease and younger age at onset of diabetes, but blood pressure does not seem to be implicated. Gene polymorphism for angiotensin converting enzyme is not linked to the development of microalbuminuria or established diabetic nephropathy.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To assess whether angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition reduces proteinuria in diabetic nephropathy more than blood pressure reduction with other antihypertensive treatment. DESIGN--Prospective, open randomised study lasting eight weeks in patients with diabetic nephropathy. SETTING--Outpatient nephrology clinics. PATIENTS--40 Patients with type I diabetes and diabetic nephropathy with reduced renal function. INTERVENTION--Antihypertensive treatment with enalapril or metoprolol, usually combined with frusemide. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Arterial blood pressure and urinary excretion of albumin and protein. RESULTS--Arterial blood pressure after eight weeks was 135/82 (SD 13/7) mm Hg in the group given enalapril and 136/86 (16/12) mm Hg in the group given metoprolol. Proteinuria and albuminuria were similar in both groups before randomisation. After eight weeks'' treatment, the geometric mean albumin excretion was 0.7 (95% confidence interval 0.5 to 1.2) g/24 h in the patients given enalapril and 1.6 (1.1 to 2.5) g/24 h in the patients given metoprolol (p less than 0.02). The proteinuria was 1.1 (0.7 to 1.7) and 2.4 (1.6 to 3.6) g/24 h respectively (p less than 0.02). CONCLUSIONS--Antihypertensive treatment with enalapril reduced proteinuria in patients with diabetic nephropathy more than an equally effective antihypertensive treatment with metoprolol. This points to a specific antiproteinuric effect of the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor independent of the effect on systemic blood pressure.  相似文献

Persistent proteinuria is strongly associated with increased mortality in insulin dependent diabetes, and risk of this condition can be predicted many years in advance by subclinical increases in albumin excretion rate (microalbuminuria). Eight normotensive insulin dependent diabetics with microalbuminuria who had overnight albumin excretion rates of between 15 and 200 micrograms/min underwent a three week randomised crossover study of their normal protein diet (median 92 (range 55-117) g/day) and a low protein diet (47 (38-57) g/day). Both diets were isoenergetic, and the low protein diet was supplemented with calcium and phosphate. Median overnight albumin excretion rate fell from 23.0 (15.0-170.1) micrograms/min during the normal diet to 15.4 (4.1-97.8) micrograms/min during the low protein diet. No consistent change was found in urinary excretion of beta 2 microglobulin during the two diets. The reduction in albumin excretion rate was accompanied by a significant fall in median glomerular filtration rate and fractional renal clearance of albumin. Kidney volume remained unchanged. There were no significant changes in glycaemic control or arterial blood pressure. In these few patients restriction of dietary protein had a beneficial effect on microalbuminuria, independent of changes in glucose concentrations and arterial blood pressure.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To investigate whether captopril has any effect on microalbuminuria induced by exercise in normotensive diabetic patients with early stage nephropathy. DESIGN--Randomised, double blind, crossover trial. SETTING--Outpatient department. PATIENTS--22 diabetics with stage II nephropathy (urinary albumin excretion rate less than 20 micrograms/min; 15 with type I diabetes and seven with type II), 32 patients with stage III nephropathy (urinary albumin excretion rate 20-200 micrograms/min; 14 with type I diabetes and 18 with type II), and 10 normal subjects. INTERVENTIONS--Four exercise tests on a cycle ergometer: the first two under basal conditions and the third and fourth after subjects had received captopril (two 25 mg doses in 24 hours) or placebo (two tablets in 24 hours). END POINT--Exercised until 90% of maximum heart rate achieved. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--Mean urinary excretion one hour after the first two exercise tests was 21 micrograms/min in normal subjects, 101 micrograms/min in diabetic patients with stage II nephropathy, and 333 micrograms/min in those with stage III nephropathy. Similar results were obtained after placebo. After captopril the urinary excretion rate one hour after exercise was significantly decreased in diabetics with stage II (36 micrograms/min) and stage III (107 micrograms/min) disease compared with placebo but not in normal subjects. Systolic and diastolic pressures were similar in the three groups after placebo and captopril had been given. CONCLUSIONS--Captopril significantly reduces microalbuminuria induced by exercise in normotensive diabetics without affecting systemic blood pressure. Captopril may reduce renal intracapillary pressure.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES--To study the association(s) between microalbuminuria and cardiovascular risk factors in non-diabetic subjects. DESIGN--Patients aged 40-75 years were randomly selected from a general practice list and invited to participate. SETTING--Health centre in inner city London. SUBJECTS--Of those invited, 1046 out of 1671 (62.6%) attended. Subjects were excluded for the following reasons: not being white (44); urinary albumin excretion rate > 200 micrograms/min (3); having a urinary infection (5); taking penicillamine or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (7); older than 75 (2); having diabetes (25); missing data on glucose concentration (1). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Glucose tolerance test results, albumin excretion rate from overnight and timed morning collections of urine; blood pressure; height. RESULTS--Mean albumin excretion rate was significantly lower in women than men (mean ratio 0.8, 95% confidence interval (0.69 to 0.91)). Mean albumin excretion rate was significantly associated with age, blood pressure, and blood glucose concentration (fasting, 1 hour, and 2 hour) in men and inversely with height. Men who had microalbuminuria in both samples were significantly shorter (by 5 cm (1.3 to 9.3 cm)) than those who had no microalbuminuria in either sample when age was taken into account. In the case of women only systolic pressure was significantly associated with albumin excretion rate. CONCLUSIONS--Microalbuminuria and short stature in men are associated. Cardiovascular risk has been associated with both of these factors and with lower birth weight. The inverse association of microalbuminuria with height is compatible with the suggestion that factors operating in utero or early childhood are implicated in cardiovascular disease. The higher prevalence of microalbuminuria in men compared with women may indicate that sex differences in cardiovascular risk are reflected in differences in albumin excretion rate.  相似文献

STUDY OBJECTIVE--To assess whether long term inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme with captopril and frusemide or bendrofluazide protects kidney function in diabetic nephropathy. DESIGN--Non-randomised controlled before-after trial of matched hypertensive insulin dependent diabetics with nephropathy treated with captopril and frusemide or bendrofluazide. SETTING--Outpatient diabetic clinic in tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS--Treatment group of 18 hypertensive insulin dependent diabetics with nephropathy (mean age 33), who had not been treated previously. Control group of 13 patients (mean age 32) fulfilling the same entry criteria from a prospective study. INTERVENTIONS--Treatment group was given daily captopril 37.5-100.0 mg and frusemide (mean) 98 mg (10 patients) or bendrofluazide (mean) 4 mg (seven). Treatment was continued for about two and a half years. Controls were not treated. END POINT--Measurement of arterial blood pressure, albuminuria, and glomerular filtration. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--Baseline values were identical in treated and untreated groups respectively: mean blood pressure 146/93 (SE 3/1) mm Hg v 137/95 (2/1) mm Hg; geometric mean albuminuria 982 (antilog SE 1.2) micrograms/min v 936 (1.2) micrograms/min; and mean glomerular filtration rate 98 (SE 5) ml/min/1.73 m2 v 96 (6) ml/min/1.73 m2. Mean arterial blood pressure fell by 8.7 (1.3) mm Hg with captopril and rose by 6.6 (1.5) mm Hg in controls, (p less than 0.001); Albumin excretion decreased to 390 (1.1) micrograms/min with captopril and rose to 1367 (1.3) micrograms/min in controls (p less than 0.001). The rate of decrease in glomerular filtration rate was lower with captopril (5.8 (0.7) ml/year v 10.0 (1.3) ml/year) (p less than 0.01). Rate of fall in glomerular filtration rate and mean arterial blood pressure were significantly correlated (n = 31, r = 0.37, p less than 0.05). CONCLUSIONS--Captopril is a valuable new drug for treating hypertension in insulin dependent diabetics with nephropathy.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between albuminuria and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha or soluble TNF receptors (sTNF-R1, sTNF-R2) in eighty-eight non-obese Japanese type 2 diabetic patients stratified into two groups according to albuminuria status-microalbuminuria or normoalbuminuria. Patients with microalbuminuria were older and had significantly higher concentrations of sTNF-R1 and sTNF-R2 than those with normoalbuminuria. There was, however, no significant difference in sex, diabetes duration, smoking, BMI, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, HbA (1c), serum creatinine, and lipid profile between the two groups. Although serum TNF-alpha was positively correlated to serum sTNF-R1 and sTNF-R2, serum TNF-alpha level did not differ with respect to albuminuria. Univariate regression analysis showed that urinary albumin concentration was positively correlated to age (r=0.380, p<0.001), serum creatinine (r=0.214, p<0.05) and concentrations of sTNF-R1 (r=0.364, p<0.001) and sTNF-R2 (r=0.342, p<0.005). Other variables, including TNF-alpha, were not associated with albuminuria. Multiple regression analyses showed that urinary albumin concentration was independently predicted by the level of sTNF-R1 (F=32.1), which explained 26.3% of the variability of urinary albumin concentration. From these results, it can be concluded that serum soluble TNF receptor is an important independent factor associated with albuminuria in non-obese Japanese type 2 diabetic patients.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate whether the addition of spironolactone to angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors further decreases albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).MethodsWe conducted a prospective open-label trial in patients recruited at the Cleveland Clinic between February 2004 and November 2006. Patients with type 2 DM were eligible if they were older than 18 years of age, had been treated with any ACE inhibitor for longer than 1 month, and had a random urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) greater than 100 mg/g within 1 month of study entry. Based on screening ACR, patients were assigned to a microalbuminuria group (ACR 100-300 mg/g) or a macroalbuminuria group (ACR > 300 mg/g). Patients were followed up for 12 weeks, with 4 clinic visits, 4 weeks apart. At visit 2, spironolactone, 25 mg once daily, was initiated and continued for 4 weeks. At visit 3, spironolactone was discontinued. Clinical information was obtained at each visit as were serum chemistries and 24-hour urinary albumin excretion.ResultsTwenty-four patients with type 2 DM and albuminuria completed the study. Eleven patients had microalbuminuria and 13 had macroalbuminuria. Following treatment with spironolactone, urinary albumin excretion dropped from a mean ± SD of 404.6 ± 60.9 mg/d to 302.7 ± 52.7 mg/d (25.7% decrease, P < .001). In the microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria groups, the urinary albumin excretion dropped 27.2% (P = .05) and 24.3% (P = .02), respectively. Despite a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure between visits 2 and 3 (141.2 ± 3.5 to 132.5 ± 3.6 mm Hg; P = .002), this change did not correlate to the change in albuminuria (r2 = 0.02; P = .23). There were no withdrawals due to hyperkalemia.ConclusionSpironolactone is effective in further decreasing albuminuria in patients with type 2 DM who are already treated with ACE inhibitors.

Blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system exhibits a renoprotective effect; however, blockade of this system may also decrease hemoglobin (Hb) and erythropoietin (EPO) levels. We evaluated the correlation between reduced albuminuria and decreased hemoglobin concentrations after treatment with an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). Two hundred forty-five non-diabetic hypertensive participants with established albuminuria and relatively preserved renal function were treated with an ARB (40 mg/day olmesartan) for eight weeks. Subsequent changes in various clinical parameters, including Hb, EPO, and albuminuria, were analyzed following treatment. After the 8-week treatment with an ARB, Hb and EPO levels significantly decreased. Patients with a greater decrease in Hb exhibited a greater reduction in 24-hour urinary albumin excretion compared with patients with less of a decrease or no decrease in Hb, whereas no associations with a decline in renal function and EPO levels were noted. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated a correlation between the reduction of urine albumin excretion and the decrease in Hb levels (after natural logarithm transformation, adjusted odds ratio 1.76, 95% confidence interval 1.21-2.56, P = 0.003). Linear regression analysis also supported this positive correlation (Pearson correlation analysis; R = 0.24, P < 0.001). Decreased Hb concentrations following ARB treatment were positively correlated with reduced albuminuria in non-diabetic hypertensive patients, regardless of decreased blood pressure and EPO levels or renal function decline.  相似文献

Heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycans are major anionic glycoconjugates of the glomerular basement membrane and are thought to contribute to the permeability properties of the glomerular capillary wall. In this study we evaluated whether the development of (micro) albuminuria in early human and experimental diabetic nephropathy is related to changes in glomerular HS expression or structure. Using a panel of recently characterized antibodies, glomerular HS expression was studied in kidney biopsies of type I diabetic patients with microalbuminuria or early albuminuria and in rat renal tissue after 5 months diabetes duration. Glomerular staining, however, revealed no differences between control and diabetic specimens. A significant (p < 0.05) approximately 60% increase was found in HS N-deacetylase activity, a key enzyme in HS sulfation reactions, in diabetic glomeruli. Structural analysis of glomerular HS after in vivo and in vitro radiolabeling techniques revealed no changes in HS N-sulfation or charge density. Also HS chain length, protein binding properties, as well as disaccharide composition did not differ between control and diabetic glomerular HS samples. These results indicate that in experimental and early human diabetic nephropathy, increased urinary albumin excretion is not caused by loss of glomerular HS expression or sulfation and suggest other mechanisms to be responsible for increased glomerular albumin permeability.  相似文献

This study was undertaken to determine whether hyperfiltration exists at the single nephron level and whether albumin excretion is increased early in the course of diabetes in Biobreeding rats. Diabetic rats were studied at 8-12 weeks after the onset of diabetes. Control animals were age-matched, diabetes-resistant rats. Urinary and tubular fluid albumin concentrations were measured by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Clearance and micropuncture techniques were used to determine whole kidney and single nephron glomerular filtration rate, renal blood flow, and glomerular capillary pressure. The urinary albumin excretion rate (1.3 +/- 0.1 mg/24 hr) and the tubular fluid albumin concentration (4.7 +/- 0.7 mg/dl) in the diabetic group were significantly elevated when compared with urinary albumin excretion (0.9 +/- 0.1 mg/24 hr) and tubular fluid albumin concentration (2.5 +/- 0.5 mg/dl) in the control group. There were no significant differences in glomerular hemodynamics (whole kidney or single nephron glomerular filtration rate or glomerular capillary pressure) between diabetic and control rats. The kidney weight and kidney weight to body weight ratio were significantly higher in diabetic rats when compared with control rats. Early diabetes in Biobreeding rats is characterized by mild albuminuria and increased kidney size, but not glomerular hyperfiltration.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To determine the effect of moderate dietary sodium restriction on the hypertension of non-insulin-dependent (type II) diabetes. DESIGN--Randomised parallel controlled study of moderate sodium restriction for three months compared with usual diabetic diet, followed by randomised double blind crossover trial of sustained release preparation of sodium for one month versus placebo for one month in patients continuing with sodium restriction. SETTING--Patients attending diabetic outpatient clinic of city hospital. PATIENTS--Thirty four patients with established type II diabetes complicated by mild hypertension (systolic blood pressure greater than 160 mm Hg or diastolic pressure greater than 95 mm Hg on three consecutive occasions). Patients already taking antihypertensive agents (but not diuretics) not barred from study provided that criteria for mild hypertension still met. Conditions precluding patients from study were diabetic or hypertensive nephropathy, cardiac failure, and pregnancy. INTERVENTIONS--After run in phase with recordings at seven weeks, three weeks, and time zero patients were allocated at random to receive moderate dietary sodium restriction for three months (n = 17) or to continue with usual diabetic diet. Subsequently nine patients in sodium restriction group continued with regimen for a further two months, during which they completed a randomised double blind crossover trial of sustained release preparation of sodium (Slow Sodium 80 mmol daily) for one month versus matching placebo for one month. END POINT--Reduction in blood pressure in type II diabetics with mild hypertension. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--Supine and erect blood pressure, body weight, and 24 hour urinary sodium and potassium excretion measured monthly during parallel group and double blind crossover studies. After parallel group study sodium restriction group showed significant reduction in systolic blood pressure (supine 19.2 mm Hg, erect 21.4 mm Hg; p less than 0.001) and mean daily urinary sodium excretion (mean reduction 60 mmol/24 h). There were no appreciable changes in weight, diabetic control, or diastolic pressure. No significant changes occurred in controls. In double blind crossover study mean supine systolic blood pressure rose significantly (p less than 0.005) during sodium supplementation (to 171 mm Hg) compared with value after three months of sodium restriction alone (159.9 mm Hg) and after one month of placebo (161.8 mm Hg). CONCLUSIONS--Moderate dietary restriction of sodium has a definite hypotensive effect, which may be useful in mild hypertension of type II diabetes.  相似文献
