Introduction: Non diabetic kidney disease (NDKD), a treatable condition, is common in diabetic patients with atypical clinical presentations. Present study aimed to find out histopathological diagnosis of kidney disease in type 2 Diabetes mellitus with such presentations. Method: This was a hospital based cross sectional study conducted in Nephrology department, Bir hospital, Nepal from Aug 2019 to January 2021. Total 29 diabetic patients with atypical presentations, rapid rise of proteinuria alone (n=5), with microscopic hematuria (n=6), with impaired renal function (n=8) and rapid rise of creatinine with (n=8) or without (n=2) microscopic hematuria were included. The baseline information was recorded and kidney biopsy was performed. Result: The mean age of patients was 52.6±10.4 y and 22(75.9%) were male. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) was absent in 24(82.8%) patients. Presence of NDKD alone was in 6(20.7%) and superimposed on diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in 10(34.5%) with total NDKD in 16(55.2%) and isolated DKD in 13(44.8%) patients. Non diabetic kidney disease were glomerulonephritis 12(75%) with membranous nephropathy 4(25%) and IgA nephropathy 4(25%) patients. The significant difference between NDKD and isolated DKD was only the duration of diabetes < 5 y in 8(61.5%) of isolated DKD and ≥5 y in 13(81.2%) patients with NDKD (p=0.018). Diabetic retinopathy was absent in 6(100%) patients with isolated NDKD, 8(80%) of class III and 5(62.5%) of class IV DKD. Conclusion: Glomerulonephritis is the commonest NDKD in type 2 DM with atypical presentation and advance DKD (Class III & IV) is present even in absence of diabetic retinopathy and short duration of diabetes.

This study aimed to investigate the susceptibility of 8 polymorphisms in ApoB and PCSK9 genes to diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This is a case-control association study, including 575 DKD cases and 653 controls. Genotypes were determined using ligase detection reaction method, and data are analyzed using STATA software. The genotype distributions of rs1042034 and rs12720838 differed significantly between the two groups (P &lt; 0.001 and P = 0.008, respectively). After adjusting for confounding factors, the mutations of rs1042034 and rs12720838 were associated with the significantly increased risk of DKD. For instance, carriers of rs1042034 T allele (CT and TT genotypes) were 1.07 times more likely to have DKD than carriers of rs1042034 CC genotype [odds ratio (OR) = 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03–1.10, P &lt; 0.001]. Further, haplotype T-A-G-T in ApoB gene was overrepresented in cases (18.10%) compared with controls (12.76%) (PSimulated = 0.045), and haplotype T-A-G-T was associated with a 33% increased risk of DKD (OR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.04, 1.70). In further haplotype-phenotype analysis, significant association was only noted for hypertension and omnibus haplotypes in ApoB gene (PSimulated = 0.001). Our findings indicate that ApoB gene is a candidate gene for DKD in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract Aim Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major long-term complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). Given the paucity of data on DKD in Jordan, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence, characteristics and correlates of DKD in Jordanian patients with type 2 DM. Methods This cross-sectional study included 1398 adult patients with type 2 DM who sought medical advice in the endocrinology clinic between March and September 2019. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were reviewed. DKD was defined as reduced eGFR, and/or albuminuria. Three regression models were constructed to identify factors associated with CKD stages, albuminuria and DKD. Results Overall, 701 (50.14%) patients had DKD, with a median age of 59.71 ± 11.36  years. Older age, high triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein were associated with DKD (multivariable odds ratio [OR]: 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01–1.03, p < 0.01; OR: 1.1, 95% CI: 1.01–1.2; and OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.97–0.99, p < 0.01 respectively). Metformin and renin-angiotensin system blockers were negatively associated with albuminuria and chronic kidney disease stages (p < 0.01). Conclusion Our study demonstrated that approximately one half of patients with type 2 DM had DKD. Further studies are necessary to understand this high prevalence and the underlying factors. Future research are needed to assess implementing targeted community-based intervention.

Abstract The presence of albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is a marker of endothelial dysfunction and also one of the criteria for diagnosing diabetic kidney disease. The present study aimed to identify associations between cardiovascular risk factors and renal albumin excretion in a group of 218 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. HbA1c values, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure were statistically significantly higher in patients with microalbuinuria or macroalbuminuria compared to patients with normoalbuminuria (p <0.01). We identified a statistically significant positive association between uric acid values and albuminuria, respectively 25- (OH)2 vitamin D3 deficiency and microalbuminuria (p <0.01).

AbstractMatrix metalloproteinases have been implicated in diabetic microvascular complications. However, little is known about the pathophysiological links between MMP-10 and the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). We tested the hypothesis that MMP-10 may be up-regulated in early stage DKD, and could be down-regulated by angiotensin II receptor blockade (telmisartan). Serum MMP-10 and TIMP-1 levels were measured in 268 type 2 diabetic subjects and 111 controls. Furthermore, histological and molecular analyses were performed to evaluate the renal expression of Mmp10 and Timp1 in a murine model of early type 2 DKD (db/db) after telmisartan treatment. MMP-10 (473 ± 274 pg/ml vs. 332 ± 151; p = 0.02) and TIMP-1 (573 ± 296 ng/ml vs. 375 ± 317; p < 0.001) levels were significantly increased in diabetic patients as compared to controls. An early increase in MMP-10 and TIMP-1 was observed and a further progressive elevation was found as DKD progressed to end-stage renal disease. Diabetic mice had 4-fold greater glomerular Mmp10 expression and significant albuminuria compared to wild-type, which was prevented by telmisartan. MMP-10 and TIMP-1 are increased from the early stages of type 2 diabetes. Prevention of MMP-10 upregulation observed in diabetic mice could be another protective mechanism of RAS blockade in DKD.

The risk of developing diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus (UD) has never been evaluated. We studied the burden of UD on the risk of developing DKD in the Japanese population in a single-center retrospective cohort study. The patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but without DKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or proteinuria), were recruited from January 2018 to January 2019; medical records were scrutinized retrospectively from January 2003 until May 2019. The individuals, with diabetes that could not be denied based on past and current records, comprised the undiagnosed diabetes (UD) group whereas those with confirmed diagnosis comprised the diagnosed diabetes (DD) group. The group differences were tested using a Kaplan–Meier curve and Cox proportional hazards model. Among the 408 participants, 164 (40.2%) and 244 (59.8%) comprised the DD and UD groups, respectively. The baseline parameters, including age, male gender, and BMI were comparable between the groups, but the plasma glucose, HbA1c levels, and diabetic retinopathy prevalence were higher in the UD group. The risk of developing DKD (log rank test, p < 0.001), an eGFR of < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (p = 0.001) and proteinuria (p = 0.007) were also higher in the UD group. The unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios for DKD were 1.760 ((95% CI: 1.323–2.341), p < 0.001) and 1.566 ((95% CI: 1.159–2.115), p = 0.003), respectively, for the UD group. In conclusion, this is the first report showing that UD is a strong risk factor for DKD. The notion that a longer duration of untreated diabetes mellitus is involved strongly in the risk of developing DKD warrants the need for the identification and monitoring of UD patients.
