Bogomolets National Medical University Researcher Describes New Findings in Type 1 Diabetes (Apoptosis-Controlling, Clinical, Laboratory, Anamnestic Factors in Prediction of the Early Stage of Diabetic Nephropathy in Children).

A recent study conducted at Bogomolets National Medical University in Kyiv, Ukraine, aimed to identify markers that can predict the early stage of diabetic nephropathy (DN) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The study surveyed 104 children between the ages of 2 and 17 with T1D and DN. The researchers found that factors such as BMI, systolic blood pressure, concurrent kidney pathology, viral infections in the medical history, ESR level, serum cholesterol, blood urea, number of DKA episodes per year, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and apoptotic and hypoxia markers were predictors of early DN. This research provides valuable insights into the early detection and prediction of DN in children with T1D. [Extracted from the article]
