The invention relates to medicine, namely to Nephrology, and can be used in Nephrology for the early diagnosis of hidden impaired renal function. Many animal studies and limited human studies with great confidence suggest that the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is largely due to metabolic and hemodynamic factors, to a lesser extent the activity of the underlying disease. Identification of these factors, such as vnutriklubnoy hypertension and glomerular hypertrophy, very important, as there are possibilities of their correction. Thus, vnutriklubnoy hypertension underlies the progression of CKD; its identification is based on the definition of hyperfiltration and/or reduction of functional renal reserve (FPR) (G.P. Arutyunov the Problem of hyperfiltration in clinical practice / Gperatlon, Lgorbunova // Clinical Nephrology. - 2009. No. 1. - P.29-40). The first method of determining the lateral distribution suggested J.P. Bosch (Bosch JP, Saccagi A., LauerA. Renal Functional reserve in humans: Effect of protein intake on glomerular filnation rate. Am.J.Med. - 1983, v.75, p.943-950); still most often used methods of diagnosis DPF using load meat protein inside or protein solutions. Some researchers have used intravenous protein or solutions aminos the slot, this improves the accuracy of the method due to its standardization, at the same time significantly increasing its cost, used amino acid solutions also differ in composition (Kucher A.G. Features functional response of the kidneys healthy people on loads of different types of protein and its derivatives / Aguer, Amecan, Waikoloan [and other] // Nephrology. - 1999. - V.3, №4. - C-90). The closest analogue of the method is a method of diagnosing a DPF using a load of meat protein (patent No. 2308725 (RF) IPC G01N 033/70 "Method of determination of functional renal reserve"), which determine the difference in glomerular filtration rate in the clearance of endogenous creatinine between protein-free breakdown and breakdown with meat load, and the collection of urine is produced between the second and sixth hour after a protein-free lunch and the next day in the same period after cold stress (5 g of meat per kg of body weight). The use of meat products obviously leads to inaccurate results, as meat birds and animals differ in composition and quantity of the protein; in addition, it leads to certain disadvantages in the preparation of samples in practice. One drawback of the sample is also the duration of the procedure - it takes almost two days. The technical result is achieved due to the fact that the method for the diagnosis of lateral distribution on the denotes the sample with a load of Dopamine to increase glomerular filtration rate, in the absence of a rise in glomerular filtration rate compared with the basal value diagnose early signs of chronic kidney disease. Dopamine - synthetic analogue of Dopamine, a vasoactive agent, according to the chemical structure related to the catecholamines (the precursor of norepinephrine), has the ability to in small doses to increase vnutripochechnykh the blood flow and glomerular filtration. The absence of such an increase indicates a depletion of the reserve capacity of the kidney result in damage to the nephrons, which allows you to diagnose early preclinical stage of CKD. The proposed method is as follows. After emptying the bladder of the patient in the morning on an empty stomach (medication cancelled) drink 200 ml of water to ensure the normal speed of diuresis, then within one hour collects urine by free urination. At the end of the hour the patient takes a blood sample (5 ml), which defines the level of endogenous creatinine. Next is intravenous drip infusion of Dopamine at a dose of 1-3 mcg/kg/min for 30 minutes (0.05 to 0.1 ml of 4%aqueous solution of Dopamine, diluted with 200 ml of 0.9%Sodium Chloride), after which the patient again within hours collects urine. In both urine samples is determined by the amount of creatinine (CR). Further defines who I glomerular filtration rate (GFR) before and after the load according to the formula of calculation of creatinine clearance with bringing to the surface area of the body: (SG urine (mmol/l) × Minute diuresis)/IG of blood (mmol/l). Functional renal reserve calculated according to the formula: (SKF-SKF)/100. The NRF is regarded as safe when values of more than 10%, underweight - less than 10%. Clinical tests of the method have shown the feasibility of its use in therapeutic and Nephrology clinic. We studied the accuracy of the proposed method in healthy volunteers and in different clinical groups of patients (table 1) (in brackets the 95% confidence interval, where ** p<0,01).
Table 1 presents the results of a survey of 41 healthy person (no signs of kidney disease, hypertension, diabetes) and 20 patients with what ryznicami CKD, that is, bladder syndrome, high creatinine level and glomerular filtration rate less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. The results show that healthy we are seeing positive DPF, while in patients it is negative. To assess the NRF previously used doses of Dopamine from 1 to 3 mcg/kg/min in order to choose the best dose, 9 healthy volunteers test was performed twice with an interval of 8-10 weeks, respectively, with a dose of 3 mcg/kg/min and 1 mcg/kg/min All other conditions of the test were unchanged. The results revealed no differences: DPF ranged 19,8 [13,2; 31,6]% at the dose of 1 mcg/kg/min and reached 29,2 [20,9;46,4]% at the dose of 3 mcg/kg/min (p>0,05). The action method can illustrate the results of the study and observation of two patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Patient S., 24, sore SLE 12 years. The disease made its debut lesions of the skin and joints, signs of nephritis in the form of bladder syndrome first discovered 1 year ago. At the time of the surveys (2006) have high (III) the degree of activity of the disease, the symptoms of nephrotic form of secondary glomerulonephritis, hypertension, grade II CKD stage 1. Patient F., 27 years old, is ill SLE 4 years. The disease made its debut lesions of the skin and mucous membranes, signs porage the Oia kidney during the year. At the time of the study (2006) identified the characteristics of high (III degree) activity, damage to the kidneys in the form of nephritic form of secondary glomerulonephritis, hypertension, grade II CKD 1. Both patients was conducted as a complete clinical examination and evaluation of the lateral distribution in the acute test with Dopamine at a dose of 1 mcg/min Thus, we have two cases of SLE in young patients with high disease activity and active lupus-nephritis, with normal renal function, mild proteinuria, but with a completely different evaluation results DPF: negative results in S. and positive in F. (see table 2).
Against the backdrop of ongoing immunosuppressive therapy, the patient's condition has stabilized, in both cases, remission of the disease, and glomerulonephritis in the form of reduction of proteinuria less than 500 mg per day, the complete disappearance of bladder syndrome in both cases was not achieved. However, the onset of the exacerbation requested a biopsy. The biopsy results, the patient With. in 2008, showed signs of significant as glomerulosclerosis, nephrosclerosis, despite continuous therapy GFR in 2009 reached 48 ml/min/1.73 m2then there was the progression of CKD. At the same time, despite the third for 6 years aggravation of the patient F. the results of the biopsy showed only signs of active lupus nephritis IV morphological class with minimal signs of sclerosis. The above typical clinical examples illustrate the accuracy of the test in determining irreversible hemodynamic disturbances. The inventive method allows to standardize the study due to the accurate dosing of the drug, eliminates the influence of such factors as the quality and composition of meat, organs of digestion, the absorption of the protein, in addition, is affordable, simple and the one for the doctor and patient study. The method of early diagnosis of chronic kidney disease using a sample with a load of Dopamine, characterized in that use a range of doses of Dopamine from 1 to 3 µg/kg body weight and standard water load in the amount of 200 ml and the absence of a rise in glomerular filtration rate is judged on the early signs of chronic kidney disease.
