Blood and urine tests to predict kidney injury in diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study checks whether a set of blood and urine tests can predict “acute kidney injury” (a sudden worsening of kidney function) earlier in people with diabetes who are undergoing a heart procedure. If the tests work, they may help doctors spot kidney trouble sooner and protect your kidneys.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be older than 18 and have diabetes (or a diabetes diagnosis likely on arrival) with reduced kidney function (eGFR under 60)

- Agree to give extra blood and urine samples for the study
- Agree to let the study team access your medical records for relevant information

This trial is developing and checking a new technique to detect early diabetic nephropathy, which means early damage to the kidneys caused by diabetes. It may help people catch kidney problems sooner, so treatment can start earlier.
This study tests a special eye test (fluorescein angiography) in people with diabetes and advanced kidney disease. The goal is to see how well the test works to check the health of blood vessels in the eye.
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
This study looks at whether certain blood test results (triglyceride and glucose) can help predict acute kidney injury in ICU patients. It aims to find early warning signs so doctors can act sooner.
This study looks for early warning signs in blood or other samples (using a special lab approach) to detect kidney problems sooner in people with diabetes. It may help patients and clinicians identify kidney risk earlier and follow changes over many years.
This study looks at how common diabetic kidney damage is in people with type 2 diabetes, and which factors can predict it. If you qualify, you may be asked to have a kidney biopsy to understand what’s happening inside your kidneys.
