About this study

This study evaluate the frequency and type of eye problem among Type 2 Diabetics with renal impairment and effect of renal impairment and haemodialysis on diabetic retinopathy

Read the detailed description

Chronic kidney disease is a descriptive term and is used for deteriorating kidney function of any underlying cause. Chronic kidney disease implies longstanding (>3 months), potentially progressive, impairment in renal function.(Kumar \& Clark's ., 2016).

Diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of chronic kidney disease in developed countries. In patients with diabetes, there is a steady advance from microalbuminuria to dipstick positive proteinuria and a progression to renal failure. (Davidson's.,2014) .The most commonly diagnosed diabetes-related complications is diabetic retinopathy. Its prevalence increases with the duration of diabetes. Some 20%of people with type 1 diabetes will have retinal changes after 10 years, rising to >95% after20 years; 20-30% of people with type 2 diabetes have retinopathy at diagnosis.(Kumar \& Clark's ., 2016) .

Also from risk factors of diabetic retinopathy is nephropathy, and if severe, is associated with worsening of Diabetic retinopathy. Conversely, treatment of renal disease (e.g. renal transplantation) may be associated with improvement of retinopathy and a better response to photocoagulation.(Kanaski ,2016) The high burden of ocular disease in Chronic kidney disease can be explained, in part, by the sharing of risk factors common to both kidney and eye diseases such as age, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, raised serum cholesterol and obesity. Ocular diseases may also be directly linked to chronic kidney disease via common pathogenic pathways, including, atherosclerosis, microangiopathy, inflammation and oxidative stress (Wong et al., 2014).

In our study we seek to do the following for participants :

  1. A detailed history including
  2. Age, sex, smoking Habits
  3. Duration of diabetes mellitus and treatment.
  4. Chronic kidney disease stage by estimated glomerular filtration rate according to MDRD formula
  5. Duration of haemodialysis.
  6. Associated co-morbidity as hypertension,
  7. Therapeutic history eg; angiotensin converting enzyme, angiotensin II receptor blocker, amiodarone, erythropoietin.
  8. Complete Clinical examination including haemodynamics, complete cardiac, chest, abdominal, lower limb examination, cranial nerve examination.
  9. Complete eye examination including detailed fundus examination, classifying expected eye problems as:
  • Cataract. - Glaucoma
  • Cranial nerve affection
  • Retinopathy either proliferative, non proliferative or macular oedema.
  1. The following investigations will be done:
  • Serum creatinine \& Blood Urea for estimation of glomerular filtration rate
  • Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c).
  • lipogram.
  • Complete blood count
  • ECG

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency Of Eye problems In Type 2 Diabetes with Chronic Kidney Disease

    To evaluate the frequency and type of eye problem among:

    1. Type 2 Diabetics not having renal impairment.
    2. Type 2 Diabetics with chronic kidney disease not on replacement therapy.
    3. Type 2 Diabetics with end stage renal disease on haemodialysis.

    Measured: 2 days for each participant to be assessed

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Eye Diseases and Renal Impairment, run by Mohammed Ramadan Abdallah.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mohamed R Abdallah (00201011770935 ext. 0020952600399, drmramadanas33@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Frequency Of Eye problems In Type 2 Diabetes with Chronic Kidney Disease (time frame: 2 days for each participant to be assessed). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 7 Nov 2017.
