Keywords
Diabetic nephropathy, Insulin pump intensive therapy
Brief summary
The recent study suggested that oxidative stress resulting from increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a crucial role in the development of diabetic complications. The researches aim to monitor the level of oxidative stress of patient in different stage of diabetic nephropathy before and after insulin pump therapy.
Detailed description
Worldwidely, about 30% of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and 20%-50% of T2DM patients suffered diabetic nephropathy (DN). Oxidative stress resulting from increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a crucial role in the development of diabetic complications. Insulin pump therapy is better than subcutaneous injection in terms of the drug safety and effectiveness. The researches aim to monitor the level of oxidative stress of patient in different stage of diabetic nephropathy before and after insulin pump therapy.
