Obstructive sleep apnea rather than diabetes or obesity associated with proteinuria in late mid-aged male workers: a decision tree analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Both proteinuria and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are associated with cardiovascular events and consequent mortality. To examine whether age, OSA, diabetes, and obesity are potential predictors of proteinuria, a data-driven analysis was performed to delineate a potential categorical

[Relationship between the prevalence of proteinuria and obesity in Japanese men].

Only registered users can translate articles

5174 Japanese male workers were studied cross-sectionally to examine a possible relationship between obesity and the prevalence of proteinuria (1 + or greater), determined using a reagent strip. The subjects were divided into three groups with body-mass indexes (BMIs) of < 23, 23-24.9 and > or = 25,

Evaluation of renal function and proteinuria based on mass health examinations in young Japanese obese adults.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Although obesity is recognized to be a risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), few studies have reported the association between obesity and CKD in the young population. We investigated the relationship between obesity and renal function including proteinuria in young

Proteinuria, glomerulomegaly and focal glomerulosclerosis in a grossly obese man with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

A grossly obese (149 kg) man with the sleep apnea syndrome was found to have proteinuria and a supernormal glomerular filtration rate. Renal histology showed glomerulomegaly and focal glomerulosclerosis. It is suggested that obesity may induce glomerular hyperfiltration and in turn

Prevalence of non-communicable diseases and its awareness among inhabitants of Sokoto metropolis: outcome of a screening program for hypertension, obesity, diabetes mellitus and overt proteinuria.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Developing countries confront double jeopardy of prevalent infectious disease and increasing Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) with imminent projected epidemic proportions. Nigeria has witnessed tremendous socio-economic changes and rural to urban migration culminating in emergence of NCD.

Effects of body-weight loss and captopril treatment on proteinuria associated with obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

We have identified 17 obese patients (body mass index, BMI, 37.9 +/- 4.1) with proteinuria > 1 g/day (1.3-6.4 g/24 h, mean 3.1 +/- 1.7). Their age was 34-70 years (48.3 +/- 10); 11 were females and 6 males. Six patients had only one functioning kidney and a sleep apnea syndrome had been diagnosed in

Prevalence of Proteinuria and Albuminuria in an Obese Population and Associated Risk Factors.

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity has been increasingly recognized as a risk factor for kidney disease and both proteinuria and microalbuminuria have been associated with obesity. The actual prevalence of microalbuminuria and proteinuria in obese patients in the United States (US) has not been clearly described in the

Birth weight predicts both proteinuria and overweight/obesity in a rural population of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Canadians.

Only registered users can translate articles

The risk for many chronic diseases appears to be mediated in part by birth weight. Among Aboriginal Canadians, the prevalence of end-stage renal disease and cardiovascular disease risk is disproportionately high, largely because of elevated diabetes prevalence. The relationships between birth weight

Massive obesity and nephrotic proteinuria with a normal renal biopsy.

Only registered users can translate articles

The association between massive obesity and nephrotic syndrome has been rarely reported. We herein describe a patient with massive obesity (209 kg) and nephrotic proteinuria who had a normal renal biopsy. The patient was initially polycythemic and had a supranormal creatinine clearance. After losing

Obesity-related focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis: normalization of proteinuria in an adolescent after bariatric surgery.

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity-related glomerulopathy (ORG) is a secondary form of focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) occurring in severely obese patients. A significant percentage of individuals with ORG will develop renal insufficiency or end stage renal disease. We report here a 17-year-old girl with morbid

Impact of age, body mass index, insulin resistance and proteinuria on the kidney function in obese patients with Type 2 diabetes and renal insufficiency.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To date, several different equations to predict the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with renal insufficiency have been developed for different patients groups. Our aim was to determine the prognostic factors of GFR in our homogenous patient group of obese, water-loaded

The anti-aging action of hypophysectomy in hypothalamic obese rats: effects on collagen aging, age-associated proteinuria development and renal histopathology.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hypophysectomy in young male Wistar rats aged 70 days, like food restriction begun at the same age, retarded the life-long rate of collagen aging in tail tendon fibres and inhibited the development of age-associated proteinuria and renal histopathology. Hypothalamic lesions which increased the food

Analysis of renal functions and proteinuria in young obese adults.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of obesity in young adults and to analyze the influencing factors on renal functions and proteinuria in this population. METHODS This study comprised civil servants between 20 and 39 years old, who received physical examinations at the First Affiliated

[A study on microproteinuria among diabetic and obese subjects without clinically overt proteinuria].

Only registered users can translate articles

In metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity, renal abnormalities may also occur even when renal dysfunction is not be detected by conventional urinalysis. By use of immunological technique, an investigation was made on the subclinical abnormality in the excretion of urinary

Proximal tubular hypertrophy and enlarged glomerular and proximal tubular urinary space in obese subjects with proteinuria.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with glomerular hyperfiltration, increased proximal tubular sodium reabsorption, glomerular enlargement and renal hypertrophy. A single experimental study reported an increased glomerular urinary space in obese dogs. Whether proximal tubular volume is increased in
