Physical Training Is a Potential Modifier of Risk for Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Background. Iodinated contrast (IC) is a leading cause of hospital-based acute kidney injury (AKI). Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a decline in renal function due to iodinated contrast administration and occurs more frequently in individuals with increasingly common risk factors, such as diabetes mellitus (DM). Physical training (PT) can have renoprotective effects on CI-AKI in diabetic nephropathy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the injury in kidneys of diabetic rats submitted to treatment with IC, evaluating the impact of PT on hemodynamics and renal function in addition to oxidative profile in diabetic rats submitted to IC-AKI. Materials and Methods. Adult male Wistar rats are randomized into four groups: citrate ( n = 7 ): control group, citrate buffer (streptozotocin-STZ vehicle), intravenous tail (iv), single dose; DM ( n = 7 ): STZ, 60 mg/kg, iv, single dose; DM+IC ( n = 7 ): DM rats treated with IC (sodium meglumine ioxithalamate, 6 mL/kg, intraperitoneal (ip), single dose); DM+IC+PT ( n = 7 ): DM rats treated with IC as mentioned and submitted to physical training. Renal function parameters (inulin clearance, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), serum creatinine, and urinary albumin), hemodynamics (renal blood flow and renal vascular resistance), and oxidative profile (urinary peroxides, urinary TBARS, urinary nitric oxide, and renal tissue thiols) were evaluated. Results. It was possible to observe a decrease in inulin clearance, renal blood flow, and thiols in renal tissue accompanied by an increase in urinary flow, serum creatinine, urinary albumin, renal vascular resistance, urinary peroxides, urinary nitrate, and TBARS in the DM group compared to the citrate group. The DM+IC group showed a reduction in inulin clearance, and the renal dysfunction was also seen by the increased NGAL. Renal hemodynamics and oxidative profile compared were also worsened in the DM group. PT improved renal function by increasing renal blood flow and thiol levels in renal tissue and reduced renal vascular resistance, metabolites of reactive oxygen, nitrogen species, and lipid peroxidation in the DM+IC+PT group compared to DM+IC. Conclusions. Our results confirmed that DM induction increases renal vulnerability to the toxicity of IC and an association between DM with IC predisposes to severe AKI with reduced renal function alongside with renal hemodynamic alterations and oxidative mechanism of injury. The PT showed a renoprotective effect in DM animals subjected to damage with IC by modulating renal hemodynamics and oxidative profile, confirming a potential to modify the risk of CI-AKI when diabetes mellitus is present.

The effect of periodic resistance training on obese patients with type 2 diabetic nephropathy

“…Every 1% decrease in HbAlc in patients with type 2 diabetes was associated with a 37% decrease in the risk of microangiopathy [20]. In patients with diabetic nephropathy, proper physical exercise may reduce the albuminuria and alleviate the progression of nephropathy [21][22]. This study showed that in patients at an early stage of T2DM nephropathy, 12 weeks of resistance training signi cantly reduced , an renal function index, and increased GFR, and the effect was more obvious than that in the control group, suggesting that resistance training may improve the renal function in patients with T2DM.…”

Effects of Sports Functional Food on Physical Function of Athletes under Ultrasound Observation

“…It can be said that functional food originated from the theory of dietary therapy, food nourishment, food supplement, and medicine and food homology in my country, medicine tonic is not as good as food tonic, which has been recognized by scholars all over the world [ 1 ]. Since the implementation of the functional food management measures in 1996, the state has strengthened the management and approval of functional food, stipulating functional food refers to food with specific health care functions, that is, food suitable for specific groups of people, with the ability to regulate body functions, and not for the purpose of treating diseases [ 2 ].…”

Psychological Motivation of Athletes’ Physical Training Based on Deep Learning Model

“…is was increasingly common in populations with risk factors [4]. Although all above believe that physical training is necessary, no specific experimental process is shown.…”
