About this study

Several studies have investigated an association between cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) and albuminuria, glomerular filtration rate, or both, and hypothesized that CAN is involved in the pathogenesis of nephropathy. However, most of these studies had focused on Caucasians and were limited to a small number of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus, or had used a conventional Ewing battery of tests based on dynamic cardiovascular maneuvers.Yet, there is consistent data showing that Asian diabetic populations, including the Chinese, have a higher risk of renal complications than Caucasians do.

The present study investigated an association between heart rate variability (HRV) parameters and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in Chinese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, specifically through time and frequency domain analyses of HRV and urine albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Being tested
Clinical examination and laboratory measurements

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Clinical examination and laboratory measurementsOther

    Also called Physical examination and blood urine samples collection

    Subjects were interviewed by a physician regarding their medical history, history of hypoglycemic attacks, smoking status, and alcohol consumption. Concentrations of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) were analyzed by the urease-ultraviolet rate method and picric acid method, respectively. Serum uric acid was determined using the enzymatic colorimetric method. Serum hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was measured by liquid enzymatic assay. Urine albumin and urine creatinine were found through immune turbidimetric analysis and the enzymatic method, respectively.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Association between HRV and renal function (eGFR and UACR)

    Assessment of HRV HRV measurement based on 24-hour ambulatory ECG monitoring was obtained from all patients using a 3- channel digital Holter recorder (CB-2302-A, Wuxi, Jiangsu, China). Assessment of DKD DKD was defined as the presence of albuminuria (UACR ≥ 30 mg/g,urine albumin in milligram,creatinine in gram) or eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2 (creatinine concentration in umol/l,creatinine molecular weight in micromole, volume in litre;urine volume per minute in milliliter per minute; body surface area in square meter) based on SCr levels. Albuminuria was defined using UACR of a single early-morning urine measurement.For all Participants, 132 patients had albuminuria and 50 patients with eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2

    Measured: 1week

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical characteristics of patients

    Clinical examination and laboratory measurements Subjects were interviewed by a physician regarding their medical history, history of hypoglycemic attacks, smoking status, and alcohol consumption. A trained examiner measured the height (in meters) and body weight (in kilograms) of the patients. Body mass index (BMI) in kg/m^2, weight in kilograms, height in meters. Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg, or both, or if the patient was already taking anti-hypertensive drugs. Blood and urine samples were analyzed at the medical examination center of Kunming First People's Hospital.

    Measured: 1week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Shi wei, MM at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Association between HRV and renal function (eGFR and UACR) (time frame: 1week). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02996539, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Dec 2016.
