Fasting Blood Glucose-A Missing Variable for GFR-Estimation in Type 1 Diabetes?

Abstract: ObjectiveEstimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is one of the current clinical methods for identifying risk for diabetic nephropathy in subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Hyperglycemia is known to influence GFR in T1D and variability in blood glucose at the time of eGFR measurement could introduce bias in eGFR. We hypothesized that simultaneously measured blood glucose would influence eGFR in adults with T1D.MethodsLongitudinal multivariable mixed-models were employed to investigate the relationship… Show more

“…Phenotypes of early diabetic nephropathy, including albuminuria, and hyperfiltration which manifest prior to renal function loss in adolescents, are thought to be strong predictors of cardiorenal complications in adulthood (14)(15)(16)(17)31). We used eGFR ≥135 mL/min/1.73 m 2 to define hyperfiltration, although there is no accepted definition for hyperfiltration (32,33). It is increasingly recognized that increased GFR is an early hemodynamic abnormality seen in diabetes that is linked with an increased risk of diabetic nephropathy (4).…”

“…However, to minimize the effect of the sample size, we used careful physiological measurements, including direct insulin sensitivity assessments by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp studies, accepted as the gold-standard method for determining insulin sensitivity. Moreover, we measured adiposity by using standardized DEXA and could therefore evaluate the association between adiposity and DN, and normalized glucose for an extensive period and standardized activity and diet to eliminate the confounding impacts of acute glycemia, exercise, and macronutrient content on renal measures ( 35 ). Although we attempted to remove the effect of acute glycemia on insulin sensitivity and the renal measures as much as possible, we cannot completely rule out the confounding effects of more chronic glucose toxicity.…”

“…Obesity is common in diabetic patients [27] , leading to a relative low body muscle mass [28] , influenced the generation of creatinine in the body. And hyperglycemia status in diabetic patients influences the measurement of GFR [29] . Second, GFR measurement method in this study was calibrated to the dual sample DTPA clearance.…”
