Journal ArticleDOI
Unraveling the Role of Inflammation in the Pathogenesis of Diabetic Kidney Disease.
Keiichiro Matoba,Yusuke Takeda,Yosuke Nagai,Daiji Kawanami,Kazunori Utsunomiya,Rimei Nishimura +5 more
TL;DR: This review provides an overview of the current status of knowledge regarding the pathologic roles of inflammation in the development of DKD and summarizes recent therapeutic advances to prevent DKD, with a focus on the anti-inflammatory effects of newly developed agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of empagliflozin monotherapy on postprandial glucose and 24-hour glucose variability in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4-week study.
Rimei Nishimura,Yuko Tanaka,Kazuki Koiwai,Kohei Inoue,Thomas Hach,Afshin Salsali,Søren S Lund,Uli C. Broedl +7 more
TL;DR: Empagliflozin for 28 days reduced PPG from the first day and improved daily blood glucose control in Japanese patients with T2DM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic association of glutathione peroxidase-1 with coronary artery calcification in type 2 diabetes: a case control study with multi-slice computed tomography.
Masami Nemoto,Rimei Nishimura,Takashi Sasaki,Yoshito Hiki,Yumi Miyashita,Makiko Nishioka,Kei Fujimoto,Toru Sakuma,Toya Ohashi,Kunihiko Fukuda,Yoshikatsu Eto,Naoko Tajima +11 more
TL;DR: The presence of Pro197Leu substitution of the GPx-1 gene may play a crucial role in determining genetic susceptibility to coronary-arteriosclerosis in T2D, and the mechanism may be associated with a decreased ability to scavenge ROS with the variant GPx1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Number of siblings, birth order, and childhood overweight: a population-based cross-sectional study in Japan
Hirotaka Ochiai,Takako Shirasawa,Tadahiro Ohtsu,Rimei Nishimura,Aya Morimoto,Ritsuko Obuchi,Hiromi Hoshino,Naoko Tajima,Akatsuki Kokaze +8 more
TL;DR: Being an only or youngest child was associated with childhood overweight, and having a larger number of younger siblings was negatively associated with overweight.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is the measurement of glycated hemoglobin A1c alone an efficient screening test for undiagnosed diabetes? Japan National Diabetes Survey.
Tomoko Nakagami,Makoto Tominaga,Rimei Nishimura,Nobuo Yoshiike,Makoto Daimon,Toshihide Oizumi,Naoko Tajima +6 more
TL;DR: The measurement of HbA1c alone may be efficient to screen undiagnosed DM and the cut-off point of 5.6% might be proper with respect to screening tests properties for undiognosed DM, and prediction of vascular complications in Japan.
