Diabetic nephropathy is a one of the risk factor for end stage renal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Urinary micr oalbumin currently marker using for diagnosis of nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus due to its larger variability and less specificity. Urinary nephrin is podocyte protein can be act as a early predictable and prognostic marker than micro albumin for nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus. This case-control prospective observational study included 60 type 2 diabetes mellitus and 30 controls after applying criteria. Basic biochemical, clinical and experimental data were measured and recorded. There was a significantly elevated level of urinary nephrin in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients when compared to controls. The urinary nephrin significantly elevated in normo albuminuria group only when compared to urinary ACR and it is positive association with kidney damage. This study concluded significantly elevated levels of urinary nephrin might be used for early diagnosis and prognostic marker for nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

People with HIV (PWH) have an elevated risk of cardiovascular disease compared to those without HIV. This study aimed to investigate the relative serum expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) associated with arterial stiffness, a significant marker of cardiovascular disease. A total of 36 male PWH and 36 people without HIV, matched for age, body mass index, pack years, and dyslipidemia, were included in the study.

Background/objectives: Urinary tract infections (UTI) represent a highly frequent and debilitating disease. Immunoactive prophylaxis, such as the polyvalent bacterial whole-cell-based sublingual vaccine MV140, have been developed to avoid antibiotic use. However, the effectiveness of this tool in the Portuguese population is still unknown.

Diabetes is known to reduce blood circulation in capillaries and arterioles; however, no devices can easily measure this on a daily basis. In this study, we developed a tool for measuring finger photoplethysmograms using green light and near-infrared LEDs. Thereafter, photoplethysmography was conducted on 25 inpatients/outpatients with diabetes and 21 adult males and females who had not been diagnosed with or treated for diabetes, hypertension, or cardiovascular disease (control group).

Arsenic exposure can induce liver insulin resistance (IR) and diabetes (DM), but the underlying mechanisms are not yet clear. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in the regulation of the onset of diabetes, especially in the progression of IR. This study aimed to investigate the role of circRNAs in arsenic-induced hepatic IR and its underlying mechanism.
