Estimation of Kidney injury molecule-1 and microalbuminuria levels in hypertensive patients at the University Teaching Hospital,Lusaka
… the world. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and Microalbuminuria (MAU) have been shown to be important biomarkers of kidney injury. There is less data on the levels of KIM-1 and Microalbuminuria in hypertensive patients at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH). Aims— the aim of the study was to …

Microalbuminuria and serum creatinine in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients attending renal clinic at university teaching hospital in Lusaka,Zambia
The study sought to investigate the presence of Micro-albuminuria (MA) in urine. MA urinary albumin excretion is in the range of 30 mg/24 hrs -300 mg/24 hrs. Consequently, urine albumin excretion has become a key therapeutic target in the management of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed …

Cistatina-C como marcador de función renal y riesgo vascular en población general
… C reactiva (p = 0,015), fibrinógeno (p = 0,006), microalbuminuria (p = 0,001) y menor cifra de colesterol de las lipoproteínas de alta densidad (p = 0,021) y filtrado glomerular estimado MDRD (p < 0,0001). Las enfermedades cardiovasculares concomitantes fueron la cardiopatía isquémica (p = 0,013) …

The Prediction Model of Disease Progression of Micro and Macro-complication in Diabetes Mellitus
… diabetic nephropathy model was defined as microalbuminuria, clinical nephropathy, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and ESRD with transplant. Third, diabetic neuropathy model was defined as peripheral neuropathy and lower-extremity amputation. Forth, diabetic cardiovascular disease model was …

Spectrum, progression and predictors of morbidity in perinatally HIV-infected adolescents on antiretroviral therapy
… rare (2.3% in PHIV+ vs. 2.1% in HIV-, p=0.89). Microalbuminuria was also rare (8.0 in PHIV+ vs. 9.0% in HIV-, p=0.80). Respiratory or cardiac impairment were more common in PHIV+ adolescents than in HIV- participants (27.1% vs. 14.7%, p=0.01 and 46.1% vs. 33.7%, p=0.03, respectively). …

The role of a nurse-led vascular risk reduction clinic in diabetes care
… risk reduction in type 2 diabetes patients with microalbuminuria has been shown to significantly reduce future vascular events by 50%. The aim of this research was to determine whether an intensive, nurse-led clinic could achieve recommended vascular risk reduction targets in patients with type 2 …

Candidate Genes for Late Diabetic Complications
… and predictors of cardiovascular mortality, microalbuminuria and metabolic syndrome. In study IV and V we showed that polymorphisms in the LTA, TNF and AGER genes were associated with diabetic complications. The association was complex and dependent on the HLA-DQB1 genotypes, with partly …

Status of end organ damage in newly detected hypertension, hypertension in thyroid disorders and knowledge and awareness of hypertension among physicians and public
Hypertension is associated with end organ damage (EOD). Since EOD is a risk factor for cardio- and cerebrovascular complications, it is a major requirement for these to be detected, prevented and treated. A total of 147 consecutive patients with newly-diagnosed essential hypertension and attending …
