lüll Diabetic microvascular complications: possible targets for improved macrovascular outcomes D'Elia JA; Bayliss G; Roshan B; Maski M; Gleason RE; Weinrauch LAInt J Nephrol Renovasc Dis 2011[]; 4 (ä): 1-15The results of recent outcome trials challenge hypotheses that tight control of both glycohemoglobin and blood pressure diminishes macrovascular events and survival among type 2 diabetic patients. Relevant questions exist regarding the adequacy of glycohemoglobin alone as a measure of diabetes control. Are we ignoring mechanisms of vasculotoxicity (profibrosis, altered angiogenesis, hypertrophy, hyperplasia, and endothelial injury) inherent in current antihyperglycemic medications? Is the polypharmacy for lowering cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose, and systolic blood pressure producing drug interactions that are too complex to be clinically identified? We review angiotensin-aldosterone mechanisms of tissue injury that magnify microvascular damage caused by hyperglycemia and hypertension. Many studies describe interruption of these mechanisms, without hemodynamic consequence, in the preservation of function in type 1 diabetes. Possible interactions between the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and physiologic glycemic control (through pulsatile insulin release) suggest opportunities for further clinical investigation.ä |
