About
Fructose intake from added sugars has increased dramatically over the last century and has recently been implicated as potential contributor to metabolic syndrome, obesity, hypertension, inflammation and kidney disease. Fructose differs from the other sugars because, uric acid is generated during its metabolism. Serum uric acid levels have been found to correlate with the intake of fructose and added sugars. In turn, an elevated serum uric acid has also been shown to be associated with increased risk for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. On the other hand complexity of fructose metabolism in each individuals results of the various magnitude of hyperuricemia induced by fructose intake. The magnitude of uric acid production in each patient may reflect individual predisposition to endogenous urate production in a face of relatively normal fasting uric acid concentration. Therefore the oral fructose tolerance test might reveal an occult purine disturbances which plays casual role in either metabolic disturbances or organ damage.
The aim of this study is to see whether is a relationship between fructose induced hyperuricemia and metabolic disturbances , inflammatory state and organ damage in obese and various stages CKD patients.
Full description
The study will be performed in two experimental groups. Proposed study groups Study I Patients with BMI> 30 and metabolic syndrome. Patient with BMI> 30 without metabolic syndrome. Normal healthy controls. Study II Patients with CKD stage III and uric acid < 7 mg/dl Patients with CKD stage III and uric acid > 7 mg/dl Patient with asymptomatic hyperuricemia and eGFR > 90 ml/min/1.73 m2, , uric acid > 7 mg/dl Hemodialysis patients
Characteristics of the particular patients group- including criteria:
10- 15 participants in each subset of each group age 18-65 y. Gender: females and males in equal proportion. Group I Patients with BMI> 30 and metabolic syndrome ( ATP III). Patient with BMI> 30 without metabolic syndrome. Normal healthy control- healthy persons( without renal disease, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, BMI < 25;normotensives ).
Group II Patients with CKD stage III (GFR 30-59 ml/min/1,73 m2) and uric acid < 7 mg/dl.
Patient with asymptomatic hyperuricemia, uric acid > 7 mg/dl with normal renal function Hemodialysis patients.
Day before the urine collection the ABPM , BMI, IM (intima media ratio) , renal duplex ultrasound (RI) will be done
Measure BMI, waist circumference
