Abstract
Aims
To estimate whether a mix of pre- and probiotics would strengthen the gut barrier and protect the kidneys in individuals with type 1 diabetes and albuminuria.
Methods
Randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study. Forty-one participants received synbiotic (pre- and probiotics) mix or placebo for 12 weeks with 6 weeks washout. Primary endpoint was change from baseline to end-of-period in UACR. Secondary endpoints were changes in endothelial glycocalyx thickness, inflammatory and intestinal barrier dysfunction markers, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and ambulatory systolic blood pressure.
Results
Thirty-five participants completed the study. Mean age was 58 (SD 10) years, 73 % (n = 30) were male, median UACR was 134 (IQR 63–293) mg/g, estimated GFR was 75 (30) ml/min/1.73m2. There was no significant difference in UACR with a mean relative change (CI 95 %) from baseline to end-of-treatment of −3.0 (−18.4; 15.5) % in the synbiotic group and −12.0 (−29.6; 9.6) % in the placebo group with no significant difference between treatment periods (9.37 (−25.2; 44.0) percentage points; p = 0.60). No significant beneficial difference in the secondary end points was demonstrated.
Conclusion
Twelve weeks treatment with synbiotic mix had no effect on UACR or on any of the secondary endpoints in subjects with type 1 diabetes and albuminuria.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Diabetes and Its Complications (JDC) is a journal for health care practitioners and researchers, that publishes original research about the pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of diabetes mellitus and its complications. JDC also publishes articles on physiological and molecular aspects of glucose homeostasis.
The primary purpose of JDC is to act as a source of information usable by diabetes practitioners and researchers to increase their knowledge about mechanisms of diabetes and complications development, and promote better management of people with diabetes who are at risk for those complications.
Manuscripts submitted to JDC can report any aspect of basic, translational or clinical research as well as epidemiology. Topics can range broadly from early prediabetes to late-stage complicated diabetes. Topics relevant to basic/translational reports include pancreatic islet dysfunction and insulin resistance, altered adipose tissue function in diabetes, altered neuronal control of glucose homeostasis and mechanisms of drug action. Topics relevant to diabetic complications include diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy and nephropathy; peripheral vascular disease and coronary heart disease; gastrointestinal disorders, renal failure and impotence; and hypertension and hyperlipidemia.
