Brief summary

Diabetes mellitus is a non-transmissible disease whose incidence is growing worldwide . This pathology is defined by a chronic hyperglycaemia linked to a deficiency of either insulin secretion or its action or both. This increased prevalence is linked to the growing of the obese population on one hand, and to the ageing of the population, on the other hand, which is associated with an increased prevalence of metabolic diseases. The number of patients with diabetes, particularly type 2 diabetes (T2D) is regularly increasing. In France, the prevalence of diabetes is 4- 6% of the adult population. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a growing public health problem and therefore constitutes a major factor in progressive kidney disease. DKD has become the leading cause of end stage kidney disease (ESKD), requiring dialysis or transplantation. Current routine screening for DKD is limited to detecting of impaired glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and/or elevated albuminuria, typically manifests in later stages of DKD. Therefore, the current methods to screen for DKD lack the resolution to capture the earliest functional changes associated with DKD. Chronic renal hypoxia plays a crucial role in the development and progression of DKD and may affect Renal hemodynamic. The aim to assess the feasibility of the measure of hypoxa-induced renal hemodynamics parameters.

Interventions

OTHERHypoxia administration study group

Acute 2-hour hypoxia (14.5%FiO2 corresponding to 3000m altitude)

COMBINATION_PRODUCTRenal clairance study

Assessment of renal clearance by measuring Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) after two agents infusion: * Aminohippurate Sodium (or or para-aminohippuric acid \[PAH\]) Inj 20% Diagnostic agent used to measure effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) * Iohexol Inj 300 MG/ML Diagnostic agent used to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR)

Intervention model description

It is a descriptive, prospective, open label, single centre, pilot study. This research aim to better understand the effect of hypoxia on intrarenal hemodynamic parameters of 3 groups : Group 1: Healthy volunteers Group 2: Patient with Type 2 Diabetes (DT2) without Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD) Group 3: Patient with T2D and DKD
