Going out to detect incipient diabetic nephropathy rather than waiting until it has supervened--a reversal in policy.
Persistent albuminuria (>300 mg/24 h or 200 ug/min) is the hallmark of diabetic nephropathy, which can be diagnosed clinically if the following additional criteria are fulfilled: presence of diabetic retinopathy and no clinical or laboratory evidence of kidney or urinary tract disease other than diabetic glomerulosclerosis [1]. This clinical definition of diabetic nephropathy is valid both in i...
متن کاملProgression of Incipient Diabetic Nephropathy
The aim of the study was to clarify whether antihypertensive treatment with a selective beta blocker would have an effect on the progression rate of kidney disease in patients with incipient diabetic nephropathy. Six male patients with juvenile-onset diabetes with incipient nephropathy (urinary albumin excretion above 15 /ig/min and total protein excretion below 0.5 g/24 hr) were treated with m...
متن کاملUrinary Exosomal MicroRNAs in Incipient Diabetic Nephropathy
MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-protein-encoding RNAs, regulate gene expression via suppression of target mRNAs. MiRNAs are present in body fluids in a remarkable stable form as packaged in microvesicles of endocytic origin, named exosomes. In the present study, we have assessed miRNA expression in urinary exosomes from type 1 diabetic patients with and without incipient diabetic nephr...
متن کاملLottery Rather than Waiting-line Auction
This paper studies the allocative efficiency of two non-price allocation mechanisms — the lottery (random allocation) and the waiting-line auction (queue system) — for the cases where individuals possess identical time costs (the homogeneous case), and where time costs are correlated with valuations (the heterogeneous case). The relative efficiency of the two mechanisms is shown to depend criti...
متن کاملIncidence and Determinants of Incipient Diabetic Nephropathy
Diabetic nephropathy is a late complication of diabetes mellitus. Microalbuminuria is considered to be an early sign of diabetic renal disease. It precedes persistent proteinuria and represents a potentially reversible stage of diabetic nephropathy. This cross-sectional analytical study was carried out on 180 type 2 and 145 type 1 diabetic patients. Patients having clinical albuminuria and with...
