Added Value of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Receptor-1 as a Biomarker of ESRD Risk in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

چکیده
Circulating levels of sTNFaR1 were assessed in 429 patients with type 1 diabetes and overt nephropathy from the Finnish Diabetic Nephropathy (FinnDiane) cohort study. Predictors of incident ESRD over a median of 9.4 years of follow-up were determined by Cox regression and Fine-Gray competing risk analyses. The added value of sTNFaR1 was estimated via time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) for survival data.

Added value of soluble tumor necrosis factor-α receptor 1 as a biomarker of ESRD risk in patients with type 1 diabetes.
OBJECTIVE Recent studies have suggested that circulating levels of the tumor necrosis factor-α receptor 1 (sTNFαR1) may be a useful predictor for the risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients with diabetes. However, its potential utility as a biomarker has not been formally quantified. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Circulating levels of sTNFαR1 were assessed in 429 patients with type 1...
متن کاملEffect of ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol supplementations on serum leptin, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and serum amyloid A levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Objective: Diabetes mellitus Type 2 is one of the most widespread chronic metabolic diseases. In most cases, this type of diabetes is associated with alterations in levels of some inflammatory cytokines and hormones. Considering anti-inflammatory properties of plant extracts rich in ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E), anti-diabetic properties of these two well-known anti...

متن کاملTumor necrosis factor- α, adiponectin and their ratio in gestational diabetes mellitus
Background: It has been suggested that inflammation might be implicated in the gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) complications, including insulin resistance. The aims of the current study were to explore maternal circulating values of TNF-α, adiponectin and the adiponectin/TNF-α ratio in women with GDM compared with normal pregnancy and their relationships with metabolic syndrome ...

Objective: The goal of this research was to determine the influence of 4 weeks aerobic training on gene expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the cardiac tissue of diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In an experimental study, 30 male wistar rats were partitioned into three groups (n=10), d...
