Abstract
Background and hypothesis: The kidneys may be susceptible to ectopic fat and its lipotoxic effects, disposing them to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). We investigated whether the kidney parenchyma fat content and kidney sinus fat volume would be higher in persons with T2D and CKD.
Methods: Cross-sectional study including 29 controls, 27 persons with T2D and no CKD, and 48 persons with T2D and early CKD (urine albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥ 30 mg/g). Kidney parenchyma fat content and kidney sinus fat volume were assessed using magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Dixon scans respectively.
Results: In the control, T2D without CKD and T2D with CKD groups, respectively, median [1st - 3rd quartile] UACR was 5 [4 - 6], 6 [5 - 10] and 95 [43 - 278] mg/g. and mean ± standard deviation estimated glomerular filtration rate was 89 ± 11, 94 ± 11 and 77 ± 22 ml/min/1.73m2. Kidney parenchyma fat content was, respectively, 1.0 [0.5-2.4], 0.7 [0.2-1.2], 1.0 [0.3-2.0] % (p = 0.26). Kidney sinus fat volume was 2.8 [1.6-7.6], 8.0 [4.7-11.3], 10.3 [5.7-14.0] ml (p < 0.01). Around 90 % of T2D participants received a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist.
Conclusions: In a setting of modern, multifactorial T2D management, kidney parenchyma fat content, evaluated with magnetic resonance spectroscopy, was similar among healthy controls and persons with T2D irrespective of CKD status. Still, kidney sinus fat volume was higher in the presence of T2D and higher still with CKD.
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.
