Abstract

Hyperglycemia from diabetes mellitus affects many body organs and interferes with normal function. Kidney function decreased in approximately one-third of patients with diabetes mellitus before the development of albuminuria. The purpose of this study was to analyze differences in urine albumin and urine synaptopodin levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and non-DM subjects, differences in urine synaptopodin levels in T2DM subjects with and without nephropathy, to analyze the correlation between urine albumin and urine synaptopodin in T2DM subjects and the cut-off analysis of sensitivity and specificity of urinary synaptopodin in diagnosing diabetic nephropathy. A sample of 60 subjects comprised 40 T2DM subjects and 20 non-DM subjects. Urinary synaptopodin levels were examined using the ELISA method, and albuminuria levels using the immunoturbidimetric method. Based on statistical analysis, the results showed that there were differences in urine albumin levels in T2DM and non-DM subjects (p*= < 0.001), there were differences in urine synaptopodin levels in T2DM and non-DM subjects (p*= < 0.001), there were no differences in urine synaptopodin levels with and without nephropathy in T2DM subjects (p*= 0.090), a relationship was found between urine albumin and urinary synaptopodin in T2DM subjects (p*= 0.048, r= 0.314) and the cut off of urinary synaptopodin in diagnosing nephropathy was ³0.39 ng/mL, sensitivity 64.7% and specificity 56.5%. We recommend further prospective studies with larger sample sizes to compare urinary synaptopodin levels and microalbuminuria (MAU) as markers for early detection of DN in T2DM subjects.

Abstract

Diabetic nephropathy is a microvascular complication associated with high glucose levels in individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM). Fibronectin, an early marker of diabetic nephropathy, can indicate the occurrence and progression of renal damage. This cross-sectional study aimed to compare urinary fibronectin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetes mellitus. A sample of 50 DM patients was divided into two groups: the DM group and the non-DM group. Urinary fibronectin levels were measured using the ELISA method, while albuminuria levels were determined by the albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR). Statistical analysis was performed to assess the relationship between urinary fibronectin levels and urine albumin. Results: The average urinary fibronectin level in DM patients was 2.07 ± 3.04 ng/mL, which was slightly higher than the level observed in non-DM patients (1.09 ± 0.56 ng/mL). However, this difference was not statistically significant (p 0.05). Additionally, there was no significant relationship found between urinary fibronectin levels and urine albumin (p = 0.001). Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that urinary fibronectin levels in individuals with DM were slightly higher than those without DM. However, this difference did not reach statistical significance. The lack of a significant relationship between urinary fibronectin levels and urine albumin suggests that fibronectin may provide additional information about renal damage in DM patients, independent of albuminuria. Further research is necessary to explore the clinical significance of urinary fibronectin as a potential biomarker for diabetic nephropathy.
