Objective To investigate the value of CysC-based CFR in comparison with creatinine-based GFR (CG-GFR and MDRD-GFR) as an accurate serum marker in the prediction of early diabetic nephropathy. Methods A tatal of 133 type 2 diabetic patients (74 males and 59 females, aged 58.1 ±12.3) were enrolled. The level of diabetic nephropathy (normoalbuminuric, microalbuminuric and macroalbuminuric) was staged and estimated GFR based on serum creatinine and cystatin C(CysC) was calculated. The plasma clearance of Tc-DTPA, serum CysC, creatinine, BMI, HbA1c, serum lipid and blood pressure were measured. Results 99mTc-DTPA-GFR was used as golden standard. At 90 and 75 ml· min-1· (1.73 m2)-1 cut-points, diagnostic efficiencies of CysC-GFR (89% and 92%) were better than those of CG-GFR (79%=86%, P=0.004, 0.04) and MDRD-GFR (80%-86%, P=0.02, 0.04). At 60 ml · min-1 · (1.73 m2)-1 cut-point, diagnostic efficiencies of CysC-GFR,CG-GFR and MDRD-GFR were 92%, 90% and 92% respectively (P= 0.49, P=0.71). The Logistic regression analyses showed that retinopathy, HbA1c, CysC, diabetic duration, and CysC-GFR were indicators to predict the development of microalbuminuria. Conclusion CysC-GFR is more valuable than CG-GFR and MDRD-GFR in the prediction of early diabetic nephropathy and should be applied clinically.

Objective To evaluate the serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH)D3] levels in non-diabetic people in Taiyuan community,and its relationship with obesity and abdominal obesity.Methods This crosssectional study enrolled 417 non-diabetic people in Tainyuan community from July to September in 2011 [225 males and 192 females,mean age (47.6 ±7.8) years].For all the enrolled subjects,we collected data about anthropometric indexes,medical history,blood glucose,lipid profile,25 (OH) D3,fasting insulin (Fins) level,homeostasis model assessement for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR),body fat content (％) measured with dualenergy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA),and intra-abdominal adipose tissue (IAAT) and abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCAT) calculated based on magnetic resonance imaging at the 4th to 5th lumbar disc level (IAAT≥80 cm2 was considered abdominal obesity).Correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationships of serum 25 (OH) D3 levels with biochemical and body fat indexes.Results The average serum level of 25 (OH) D3 was 44.5 nmol/L in the 417 people,with vitamin D deficiency in 261 cases (62.6％) and vitamin D insufficiency in 109 cases (26.1％).Of the vitamin D deficient and insufficient people,77.6％ had abdominal obesity according to IAAT (IAAT ≥ 80 cm2).According to Pearson analysis result,lg 25 (OH)D3 was negatively correlated with lg Fins,lg HOMA-IR,waist circumference,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,total abdominal adipose tissue (TAAT),IAAT (all P ＜0.05).It was also negatively correlated with waist-to-hip-ratio,body mass index (BMI),and body fat content (％),but without statistical significance (all P ＞0.05).In stepwise multiple linear regression model,lg HOMA-IR (t =-4.278,P =0.001) and TAAT (t =-5.146,P =0.002) were independently correlated with lg 25 (OH) D3.Conclusions About 90％ of all non-diabetic population in Taiyuan community have vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency,of whom 4/5 have abdominal obesity.Serum 25 (OH)D3 level is negatively correlated with abdominal adipose tissue,but not significantly associated with BMI.HOMA-IR and TAAT are independent risk factors for vitamin D deficiency.
