Evidence for Increased Risk of Prediabetes in the Uremic Patient

Abstract: A prediabetic state is defined as a higher than normal blood glucose level but not yet high enough to meet the diagnosis of overt diabetes mellitus. While patients with advanced diabetic nephropathy are vulnerable to hypoglycemia, we believe that there is sufficient evidence that uremic nondiabetic patients are susceptible to hyperglycemia, which calls for more attention that uremia is a prediabetic state. It is, therefore, intriguing to identify these uremic factors which lead to prediabetes. Such a study may… Show more

“…This result is consistent with our previous report of 51% in a larger group of 252 CKD patients [1]. This increased prevalence of pre-diabetes thus explains at least in part the elevated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality seen in patients with CKD.…”

“…We, as well as other groups, have presented evidence to support the increased incidence of hyperglycemia in nondiabetic patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) [1]. Both β-cell dysfunction and IR are blamed for hyperglycemia in patients with CKD.…”

“…CKD is characterised as the progressive retention of toxic uraemic metabolites, many of which adversely influence a number of organs. Approximately half of all people with CKD are affected by impaired glucose homeostasis [5][6][7]. In addition to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), insulin resistance appears to exist in the early stages of CKD and is exacerbated as renal function declines [8][9][10][11].…”

“…Besides, the relationship of pseudouridine and the risk of diabetes had been disclosed. Pseudouridine inhibits glucose utilization at the postreceptor level through lowering the intracellular Ca concentration to affect the progression of T2DM (35), and plasma pseudouridine predict both the risk and prevalence (36) and insulin resistance of T2DM (37). Moreover, plasma pseudouridine has been shown to be correlated with declining renal function and albuminuria in diabetic kidney disease (38,39), suggesting a close relationship between the level of plasma pseudouridine and diabetic microangiopathy.…”
