Sumario: | BACKGROUNDS: Diabetic children especially who are obese lead to poor glycemic control thus are at higher risk for early microvascular complications. Renal tubulointerstitial markers play integral role in the evaluation of diabetic nephropathy and various biomarkers have been proposed. Yet, their role in obese pediatric population is uncertain. The aim of this study is to investigate renal injury markers in children with diabetes mellitus (DM) in relation with obesity and determine their role for early predictor of diabetic complications. METHODS: Fifty-three children and adolescents diagnosed with either type 1 or 2 DM and 44 controls aged 7-18 years were included. Clinical and laboratory characteristics including renal injury markers among subjects were compared with respective to body mass index (BMI), presence and type of DM. RESULTS: Urine neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 were lower whereas beta-2 microglobulin and n-acetylglucosamine (NAG) concentrations were higher in controls compared to diabetic children. None of renal injury markers showed significant difference between normoweight and obese children. In multiple regression analyses, urine NAG was associated with HbA1c and the presence of DM while high homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance was identified as a risk factor of for increased urine NAG in type 2 diabetic children. CONCLUSION: Urine NAG could be a marker associated not only with diabetic nephropathy, but also with insulin resistance regardless of BMI. Presentation: No date and time listed |
