Liraglutide and renal outcomes in type 2 diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In a randomized, controlled trial that compared liraglutide, a glucagon-like peptide 1 analogue, with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes and high cardiovascular risk who were receiving usual care, we found that liraglutide resulted in lower risks ...

Weight-adjusted-waist index is associated with urinary albumin-creatinine ratio in normal body mass index adults: a cross-sectional study from NHANES 2001–2018

open access: yesScientific Reports
Obesity promotes chronic kidney disease and albuminuria. Whether weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) is correlated with albuminuria reflected by urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) in normal body mass index (BMI) population and the effect of ...

Low-Grade Albuminuria Is Associated with Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Diastolic Dysfunction in Patients with Hypertension

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2019
Introduction: Microalbuminuria is a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hypertensive patients. However, the relationship between low-grade albuminuria, a higher level of albuminuria below microalbuminuria threshold, and hypertension-

Estimated pulse wave velocity as a potential predictor of albuminuria in hypertension

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
BackgroundIncreased arterial stiffness is an important marker of target organ damage in hypertension. Estimated pulse wave velocity (ePWV) is a noninvasive assessment of arterial stiffness based on blood pressure and age calculations, but its association

Tubulointerstitial injury and proximal tubule albumin transport in early diabetic nephropathy induced by type 1 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A decrease in the tubular expression of albumin endocytic transporters megalin and cubilin has been associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN), but there are no comprehensive studies to date relating early tubulointerstitial injury and the effect of the ...
