Checking uric acid for early kidney signs in prediabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study is looking at whether high uric acid levels can be an early warning sign of kidney problems in people with prediabetes. By joining, you'll help researchers understand how to catch kidney issues sooner, which could lead to better prevention.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have prediabetes (blood sugar higher than normal but not diabetic), as confirmed by a doctor.
- Your kidneys are functioning well (eGFR 60 or above).
- You are not currently taking uric acid-lowering medicines and have no gout history.

This study is testing a new way to find early signs of kidney damage in people with diabetes. The goal is to catch kidney disease (diabetic nephropathy) sooner, so it can be managed more effectively.
This study looks at how kidney function and metabolic problems (like diabetes or high blood pressure) change over time in older adults. It may help find ways to prevent new kidney disease or slow the worsening of existing kidney disease.
This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut and certain blood markers might help predict changes in blood sugar levels for people with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease. The findings could lead to better ways to manage your condition and prevent complications.
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.
