An assessment of psychological factors, inflammatory biomarkers and kidney complications; the Improving renal Complications in Adolescents with type 2 diabetes through REsearch (iCARE) cohort study

FY 2014-15

Summary
Youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have very high rates of kidney complications, as well as progression to end stage kidney disease. Traditional risk factors do not explain the disease burden in these high risk youth. We aim to evaluate the role of biological, psychological and social factors (BPS) and inflammation in the development of early kidney disease in youth with T2D. To accomplish this objective we will create a national cohort of youth with T2D to address the following aims: Aim 1. Characterize the primary BPS risk factors associated with early kidney injury in youth with T2D. Aim 2: Determine individual, family and community level factors that influence biological and psychological risk factors and behaviors (adherence) that could be modified to protect against early kidney injury. Aim 3: Determine if inflammation is the common pathway through which BPS risk factors lead to kidney injury in youth with T2D. This study will clarify the role of psychological factors in complications in youth with T2D, as well as identify new biomarkers for progression. Results will guide clinical care, as well as inform future intervention trials to be performed within the infrastructure developed through this national cohort.

Abstract
Youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have very high rates of kidney complications, as well as progression to end stage kidney disease. Traditional risk factors do not explain the disease burden in these high risk youth. We aim to evaluate the role of biological, psychological and social factors (BPS) and inflammation in the development of early kidney disease in youth with T2D. To accomplish this objective we will create a national cohort of youth with T2D to address the following aims: Aim 1. Characterize the primary BPS risk factors associated with early kidney injury in youth with T2D. Aim 2: Determine individual, family and community level factors that influence biological and psychological risk factors and behaviors (adherence) that could be modified to protect against early kidney injury. Aim 3: Determine if inflammation is the common pathway through which BPS risk factors lead to kidney injury in youth with T2D. This study will clarify the role of psychological factors in complications in youth with T2D, as well as identify new biomarkers for progression. Results will guide clinical care, as well as inform future intervention trials to be performed within the infrastructure developed through this national cohort.
