Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate characteristics and risk of diabetic complications according to age at diagnosis among young adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). METHODS A total of 255 T1DM patients aged less than 40 years were included. Patients were categorized into three groups (<20, 20 to 29, and 30 to 40 years) according to age at diagnosis. Diabetic nephropathy (DN) was defined when spot urine-albumin creatinine ratio was 300 mg/g or more and/or estimated glomerular filtration ratio (eGFR) level was 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or less. RESULTS Median age at diagnosis was 25 years and disease duration was 14 years. Individuals diagnosed with T1DM at childhood/adolescent (age <20 years) had lower stimulated C-peptide levels. They received more intensive insulin treatment with higher total daily insulin doses compared to older onset groups. The prevalence of DN was higher in the childhood/adolescent-onset group than in older onset groups (25.3% vs. 15.3% vs. 9.6%, P=0.022). The eGFR was inversely associated with disease duration whilst the degree of decrease was more prominent in the childhood/adolescent-onset group than in the later onset group (aged 30 to 40 years; P<0.001). Childhood/adolescent-onset group was independently associated with the risk of DN compared to the older onset group (aged 30 to 40 years; odds ratio, 3.47; 95% confidence interval, 1.45 to 8.33; P=0.005). CONCLUSION In individuals with childhood/adolescent-onset T1DM, the reduction in renal function is more prominent with disease duration. Early age-onset T1DM is an independent risk of DN.

J Diabetes Complications 2017; 31:1041-1046. [PMID: 28396158 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2017.01.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2016] [Revised: 01/19/2017] [Accepted: 01/21/2017] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
AIM The present study was performed to assess variability in glycated albumin (GA) using a coefficient of variation (CV) to predict the progression of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetic patients, independently of HbA1c and other conventional risk factors. METHODS The present study consecutively enrolled 369 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from outpatient clinic. During the follow-up period, GA and HbA1c levels were measured repeatedly (≥5 times), and the CV of GA (GA-CV) was calculated for each patient. The patients were divided into two subgroups: Group 1, a MEAN-HbA1c value <7.2% (55mmol/mol); Group 2, a MEAN-HbA1c value ≥7.2% (55mmol/mol). The primary outcome was the renal composite outcome (RCO), which was based on the progression rates of chronic kidney disease and albuminuria and renal death. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 33months. The RCO was developed in 109 patients (29.5%). In Group 1, the third highest and highest quartile groups for GA-CV had higher cumulative incidences of the RCO than those of the lowest quartile group (Q4 vs. Q1: HR=5.43, P=0.007, Q3 vs. Q1: HR=5.16, P=0.009). After adjusting for HbA1c levels and other risk factors, the GA-CV remained significantly associated with the development of the RCO. However, Group 2 did not exhibit any significant differences in terms of the cumulative incidence of the RCO among the four GA-CV quartile groups. CONCLUSIONS The present findings suggest that variability in GA may be a better predictor of the progression of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetic patients regardless of HbA1c.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic and metabolic disease that presents a high global incidence. Glycated hemoglobin (A1C) is the reference test for long-term glucose monitoring, and it exhibits an association with diabetic chronic complications. However, A1C is not recommended in clinical situations which may interfere with the metabolism of hemoglobin, such as in hemolytic, secondary or iron deficiency anemia, hemoglobinopathies, pregnancy, and uremia. The glycated albumin (GA) is a test that reflects short-term glycemia and is not influenced by situations that falsely alter A1C levels. GA is the higher glycated portion of fructosamine. It is measured by a standardized enzymatic methodology, easy and fast to perform. These laboratory characteristics have ensured the highlight of GA in studies from the last decade, as a marker of monitoring and screening for DM, as well as a predictor of long-term outcomes of the disease. The aim of this review was to discuss the physiological and biochemistry characteristics of the GA, as well as its clinical utility in DM.

Abstract
Objective Hypoalbuminemia, fluid overload (FO), and oxidative stress (OS) may be related to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. OS produces molecular modifications of serum albumin that interfere with its quantification by the commonly used bromocresol green assay. This study evaluated the impact of oxidized serum albumin (OSA) on oncotic pressure (OP) and hydration status. Patients and methods Twenty-four stable hypoalbuminemic PD patients were enrolled in the study. After performing physical examination, assessment of the hydration status using a whole-body bioimpedance spectroscopy technique was performed, and blood samples were drawn for determination of OP, serum albumin levels, and OSA. Results Extracellular to total body water (E/TBW) ratio was higher in patients with FO ≥1.5 L with or without edema than in patients with FO <1.5 L (P≤0.043). E/TBW ratio was higher in patients with FO ≥1.5 L and edema compared to those with FO ≥1.5 L but without edema (P=0.004). OP was significantly higher in patients with FO ≥1.5 L and without edema compared to those with FO ≥1.5 L and with edema (P<0.001). Albumin-detection index (ADI) in patients with FO ≥1.5 L and without edema was similar to ADI in patients with FO <1.5 L (P=0.520). ADI was significantly lower in patients with FO ≥1.5 L and without edema compared to those with FO ≥1.5 L and edema (P=0.034). E/TBW ratio correlated positively with the ADI (r=0.60, P=0.001) and inversely with the OP (r=−0.54, P=0.002). Conclusion Overhydration may be clinically undetectable in PD patients. Assessing the hydration status and measuring the total serum albumin levels, including the oxidized fraction, should be considered in evaluating hydration status in PD patients.
