Autophagy is essential for the survival of podocytes. This work was designed to assess autophagy in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with and without diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods: This case-control work was performed on 50 patients with T2DM. They were divided according to urinary albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) into the following subgroups; Group IA: 25 individuals without DN and Group IB: 25 individuals with DN. Every individual who participated had a medical taking of history and laboratory tests including routine investigations of Fasting blood sugar (FBS), HbA1c, Urinary albumin creatinine ratio (UACR), Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) and specific Detection of LAMP2 relative gene expressions in peripheral leucocytes by quantitative reverse transcription-real time PCR (qRT-qPCR). Results: LAMP2 mRNA expression levels were substantially decreased in diabetic individuals with nephropathy than in those without. Conclusions: These data suggest that there was inhibition of the autophagy pathway in diabetic individuals with DN than in those without and that impaired autophagy may be involved in the progression to DN.","PeriodicalId":13835,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Research in Medicine","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73962376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The patients’ demographic, clinical, laboratory and radiological data were recorded on a special observation sheet. Whole blood viscosity and ECHO cardiography assessment of the left ventricular function of patients were also recorded. Statistical analysis was done for all collected data using the IBM, SPSS version 23. Significance of obtained results was considered at p-value of less than 0.05.Results: WBV was significantly increased in group 1 compared to group 2. WBV had appeared to be an excellent predictor of LVD in patients with NAFLD; it was positively correlated with hemoglobin, hematocrit, fatty liver status and fibrosis and all LVD parameters except for ejection fraction and relative wall thickness. By logistic regression analysis hemoglobin, whole blood viscosity, and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter are the only predictors in NAFLD patients with LVD. WBV at a cut-off value of 4.38; the AUC was 0.756, the sensitivity was 96.15%, the specificity was 83.33%, the PPV was 86.20%, and the NPV was 95.23%.Conclusion: WBV is a good, easily obtained and affordable marker for the determination of LVD in cases with NAFLD.","PeriodicalId":13835,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Research in Medicine","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135144207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
