DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2021-056110
Abstract: Introduction To alleviate clinical symptoms of diabetic nephropathy (DN), several dietary and non-dietary strategies have been suggested. Probiotic-enriched foods, through their effects on modulating microflora, might help these patients control the adverse effects. The current… read more here.

Association Between Hypertriglyceridemic Waist Phenotype and Increased Urinary Albumin–Creatinine Ratio in Chinese Adults: The REACTION Study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy"
DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s257736
Abstract: Purpose The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype can predict cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Additionally, strong evidence indicates that elevated urinary albumin–creatinine ratio (UACR) is associated with increased prevalence of CVD. However, few studies have explored the… read more here.
