About this study

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the major microvascular complications associated with diabetic patients, and also the major global cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are currently recognized clinical indicators for early diagnosis of DN, however, the sensitivity and specificity are unsatisfactory. The early identification and treatment of DKD are conducive to lowering the risk of kidney damage by as much as 50%. Therefore, it is particularly critical to find new biomarkers to reflect the potential DKD lesions in the clinical silent period earlier and more accurately. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the differentially expressed lipids in early DKD, T2DM and healthy adults by mass spectrometry, and verify the related results by larger samples, so as to screen out early markers of DKD and achieve the ultimate goal of clinical application.

Read the detailed description

The present study was a scientific research project concurrently conducted by clinical and laboratory. In term of clinical research, the basic personal data, medical history, physical examination and auxiliary examination results of subjects were mainly recorded. Whereas in term of basic research, the serum, plasma and urine samples of patients were collected for serological and metabonomics research to find new biomarkers.

First, we recruited the patients who met the inclusion criteria. The patients' serum, plasma and urine were collected at baseline after obtaining informed patient consent. Simultaneously, the basic information, anthropometric indicators (including height, weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, blood pressure), past history, family history, menstrual history, birth history, medication history, lifestyle of the patients were registered, and the corresponding laboratory examination and auxiliary examination were carried out according to the diagnostic process. All data and data were entered into the database for later analysis. After the initial diagnosis, the patients were enrolled in the current trial. The patients were followed up annually until the last follow-up visit, and the complete follow-up was conducted for at least 5 years. Each follow-up followed the principles of routine clinical diagnosis and treatment. In addition, the patients' serum, plasma and urine samples were collected once a year during follow-up, and a centralized test of glycosylated hemoglobin was performed once a year.

In this study, the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetic nephropathy was explored through multi-center standardized clinical follow-up; The potential mechanism and possible biomarkers in patients with early renal diseases of type 2 diabetes was explored through prospective long-term follow-up, so as to find novel therapeutic approaches and suitable population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetic Nephropathy Type 2 and Biomarker, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine 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 3 inclusion and 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2021. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Zheng Chao, MD, PhD (8615057585907, wallbb_1022@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Urinary Albumin Creatinine Ratio,UACR (time frame: 5years). 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 20 Jul 2021.
