Background:ANCA associated vasculitides (AAV) are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases with unknown etiology and the broad clinical spectrum ranging from life-threatening systemic disease, through single organ involvement to minor isolated skin changes. Unfortunately the clinical classification, ANCA specificity or genetic characteristics alone is not able to categorize AAV patients in a satisfactory manner. As a consequence advanced statistical techniques were used to identify and stratify AAV subphenotypes [1, 2]. Here we have analyzed influence of the ANCA type on clinical manifestations and demographic characteristics in various types of AAV, based on data from the POLVAS registryObjectives:We decided to retrospectively analyze a large cohort of Polish AAV patients deriving from several referral centers – members of the Scientific Consortium of the Polish Vasculitis Registry (POLVAS) – and concentrate on demographic and clinical characteristics of anti-PR3 and anti-MPO positive patients regardless of their clinical diagnosis.Methods:We conducted a systematic multicenter retrospective study of adult patients diagnosed with AAV between Jan 1990 and Dec 2016. Patients were enrolled by 9 referral centers. We analyzed dichotomous variables: gender; ANCA status – anti-PR3+ or anti-MPO+, ANCA negative; organ involvement - skin, eye, ENT, respiratory, heart, GI, renal, urinary, CNS, peripheral nerves and polytomous variable (number of relapses), supported by quantitative covariates (e.g., age at diagnosis, CRP at diagnosis, maximal serum creatinine concentration ever)[3].Results:MPO-positive patients (both GPA and EGPA phenotype) were older at the time of diagnosis with a substantial percentage diagnosed > 65 years of age, and with high rate of renal involvement. Interestingly, while in the whole group of patients diagnosed with EGPA male to female ratio was 1:2, the MPO+ EGPA patients showed M:F ratio of 1:1.The analysis of ANCA negative AAV reveled significant differences in GPA, ANCA negative group is characterized with significantly lower frequency of renal involvement compared to rest GPA (11,5% vs 63,7%) p<0,05 what should be emphasized ANCA negative AAV never lead to ESRD (end stage renal disease) or even transient dialysis.Conclusion:ANCA specificity is indispensable as a separate variable in any clinically relevant analysis of AAV subcategories. MPO+ group is characterized by older age at time of diagnosis, male to female ration 1:1, kidney involvement, and shows more homogenous clinical phenotype than PR3+ AAV patients. In our group ANCA negative AAV never lead to ESRD (end stage renal disease) or even transient dialysis.References:[1]Mahr A, Specks U, Jayne D.

Abstract Background Nephropathy, a major complication of diabetes, is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Early identification of nephropathy in diabetes patients is crucial because it creates opportunity for preventing the incidence of DN and/or even slows down the process of end-stage renal disease attributed to diabetes. Human podocytes (Pods) have been demonstrated to be functionally and structurally injured in the natural history of diabetic nephropathy. Aim of the Work To evaluate the possible association between the urinary podocalyxin levels and severity and grade of diabetic nephropathy and to use urinary podocalyxin as a non-invasive marker for early stage of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 DM. Patients and Methods We collected 60 known clinically and biochemically type 2 diabetic patients.20 diabetic patients with no evidence of diabetic nephropathy, 20 patients diagnosed as diabetic nephropathy in microalbuminuria stages and 20 patients diagnosed as diabetic nephropathy in macroalbuminuria stages from Ain Shams University hospitals between April and December 2018 and 20 apparently healthy volunteers will included as a control group. Results Urinary PCX was significantly higher in patients group compared to control group. Urinary PCX was significantly higher in microalbuminuric group than in normoalbuminuric group and higher in macroalbuminuric group than in microalbuminuric group. There was a positive significant correlation between FBS, 2HrPP, HBA1C and urinary PCX. There was a positive significant correlation between s.create and urinary PCX. There was a positive significant correlation between ACR and urinary PCX. Conclusion Urinary podocalyxin seems to be beneficial as an early marker for early stages of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 DM patients.

Abstract Background Diabetic nephropathy is a global common cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. A lot of research has been conducted in biomedical sciences, which has enhanced understanding of the pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy and has expanded the potential available therapies. An increasing number of evidence suggests that genetic alterations play a major role in development and progression of diabetic nephropathy. This systematic review was focused on searching an association between Arg913Gln variation in SLC12A3 gene with diabetic nephropathy in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes and Gitelman Syndrome. Methods An extensive systematic review of the literature was completed using PubMed, EBSCO and Cochrane Library, from their inception to January 2018. The PRISMA guidelines were followed and the search strategy ensured that all possible studies were identified to compile the review. Inclusion criteria for this review were: 1) Studies that analyzed the SLC12A3 gene in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes and Gitelman Syndrome. 2) Use of at least one analysis investigating the association between the Arg913Gln variation of SLC12A3 gene with diabetic nephropathy. 3) Use of a case–control or follow-up design. 4) Investigation of type 2 diabetes mellitus in individuals with Gitelman’s syndrome, with a history of diabetic nephropathy. Results The included studies comprised 2106 individuals with diabetic nephropathy. This review shows a significant genetic association in most studies in the Arg913Gln variation of SLC12A3 gene with the diabetic nephropathy, pointing out that the mutations of this gene could be a key predictor of end-stage renal disease. Conclusions The results showed in this systematic review contribute to better understanding of the association between the Arg913Gln variation of SLC12A3 gene with the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy in individuals with T2DM and GS.

And Oxidative Stress

Association of oxidative stress and serum prolidase activity (SPA) has been reported in many chronic diseases. The study was aimed at evaluating the correlation of glucose and creatinine to SPA and oxidative stress in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) and end stage renal disease (ESRD) concerned with T2DM. 50 healthy volunteers, 50 patients with T2DM, 86 patients with DN, and 43 patients with ESRD were considered as control-1, control-2, case-1, and case-2, respectively. Blood glucose, creatinine, SPA, total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), and oxidative stress index (OSI) were measured by colorimetric tests. SPA, TOS, and OSI were significantly increased in case-1 and case-2 than control-1 and control-2, while TAS was significantly decreased(P<0.001). Blood glucose was linearly correlated to SPA, TOS, TAS, and OSI in control-2, case-1 and case-2(P<0.001). Serum creatinine was linearly correlated with SPA, TOS, TAS and OSI in control-2 and case-1(P<0.001). In case-2, serum creatinine was significantly correlated with SPA only(P<0.001). Thus, the study concluded that SPA and oxidative stress significantly correlated with blood glucose and creatinine. SPA, TOS, TAS, and OSI can be used as biomarkers for diagnosis of kidney damage.
