The Correlation Between Angiopoietin-Like 3 and Metabolic Markers of Some Lipid and Glucose in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients at the First Diagnosis.

Purpose: Angiopoietin-Like3 is a protein that plays an important role in regulating plasma triglyceride concentrations by inhibiting the enzyme lipoprotein lipase. Lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism are closely related and interact with each other. ANGPTL3 may also be a factor involved in blood glucose regulation through an increase in free fatty acids generated from enhanced lipolysis in adipose tissue leading to insulin resistance.

Frequencies and Association of CYP3A5 Polymorphism With Tacrolimus Concentration Among Renal Transplant Recipients in Vietnam.

Background: This study aims to investigate the frequencies and association of CYP3A5 polymorphism with tacrolimus concentration among renal transplant recipients in Vietnam.

Methods: Sixty-eight kidney transplant recipients were included in this study from the department of nephrology and dialysis, Military Hospital 103. Blood samples were collected for monitoring of tacrolimus levels and determination of CYP3A5 genetic polymorphism.

Evaluation of Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin and Kidney Injury Molecule-1 as Diagnostic Markers for Early Nephropathy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was evaluating the early diagnostic value of two specific tubular markers neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in diabetes nephropathy.

Patients And Methods: Cross-sectional study was carried in three groups of patients from 10/2017 to 10/2018 in Military Hospital 103. Group I included 30 healthy peoples with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) >60 mL/min/1.
