Aims: Interindividual variability in capacity to reabsorb glucose at the proximal renal tubule could contribute to risk of diabetic kidney disease. Our present study investigated, in patients with diabetes, the association between fractional reabsorption of glucose (FR) and degree of renal disease as assessed by urinary albumin excretion (UAE) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).
Methods: FR [1-(glucose clearance/creatinine clearance)] was assessed in 637 diabetes patients attending our tertiary referral centre, looking for correlations between FR and UAE (normo-, micro-, macro-albuminuria) and Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) eGFR categories: >90 (G1); 90-60 (G2); 59-30 (G3); and<30-16 (G4) mL/min/1.73 m. Patients were stratified by admission fasting plasma glucose (FPG) into three groups: low (<6mmol/L); intermediate (6-11mmol/L); and high (>11mmol/L).
Results: Median (interquartile range, IQR) FR levels were blood glucose-dependent: 99.90% (0.05) for low (n=106); 99.90% (0.41) for intermediate (n=288); and 96.36% (12.57) for high (n=243) blood glucose categories (P<0.0001). Also, FR increased with renal disease severity in patients in the high FPG group: normoalbuminuria, 93.50% (17.74) (n=135); microalbuminuria, 96.56% (5.94) (n=77); macroalbuminuria, 99.12% (5.44) (n=31; P<0.001); eGFR G1, 94.13% (16.24) (n=111); G2, 96.35% (11.94) (n=72); G3 98.88% (7.59) (n=46); and G4, 99.11% (2.20) (n=14; P<0.01). On multiple regression analyses, FR remained significantly and independently associated with UAE and eGFR in patients in the high blood glucose group.
Conclusion: High glucose reabsorption capacity in renal proximal tubules is associated with high UAE and low eGFR in patients with diabetes and blood glucose levels>11mmol/L.

To enhance the stability in textural attributes of frozen cooked rice, this study has found and proposed a new strategy: retaining the rice germ in milling process. Each rice germ is comparable to a native lipid-rich microcapsule attached to the endosperm part. In the gelatinization process, leached germ oil was reabsorbed in the outer layer of rice granule.

Bile acids (BAs) are cholesterol derivatives synthesized in the liver and released into the digestive tract to facilitate lipid uptake during the digestion process. Most of these BAs are reabsorbed and recycled back to the liver. Some of these BAs progress to other tissues through the bloodstream.

The excretory mechanisms of stenohaline marine osmoconforming crabs are often compared to those of the more extensively characterized euryhaline osmoregulating crabs. These comparisons may have limitations, given that unlike euryhaline brachyurans the gills of stenohaline marine osmoconformers possess ion-leaky paracellular pathways and lack the capacity to undergo ultrastructural changes that can promote ion-transport processes in dilute media. Furthermore, the antennal glands of stenohaline marine osmoconformers are poorly characterized making it difficult to determine what role urinary processes play in excretion.
