That article is dated 2003. Up-to-date studies show, that prevention of
functional anaemia, which also includes substitution of renal caused
erythropoietin deficiency decreases the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

It stated the usefulness if low-iron diet in all stages of diabetic
nephropathy.

> I don't see anything about anemia .. in the .. article ..

Renal anaemia is unavoidable as soon as the erypothropoietin production
falls due to renal function loss. There is no need to mention it. It is
inevitable.

> And .. you are correct in that .. 'treating' .. anemia .. improves
> .. recovery .. BUT .. as pointed out .. and cites .. provided upon

Erythropoietin is essentiell for erythropoiesis. The amount of its
production in the liver is not enough to prevent anaemia if the renal
function decreases. The need for iron increases (=relative deficiency). The
anaemia can be corrected by increasing the erythopoiesis. You can do that at
mild stages with iron supplemention. Progressed stages of erythropoietin
defiency can't be corrected by giving other things than erypo. Like there is
no way to push insulin production in T1 diabetics with no remaining beta
cell activity.

> Therefore allowing the body to utilize this iron .. SHOWN .. to BE
> .. present ..

The article speaks of effects of iron on renal tissue and function
deterioration and therefore recommends low-iron-diet.

> iron .. PRESENT ..

The need for iron is increased and can't be supplied with normal nutrition.
So you do supplementation (till another stage is reached, where that won't
be enough any longer). A low-iron-diet is not what I'd call iron
supplementation ;-)

The article cites sources from 1989 and 1992 on the effects of iron
deficiency on renal tissue and function and therefore recommends
low-iron-diet.
The effects of relative iron deficiency (anaemia), which lead to
supplementation, is known.
The study achieves the low-iron-diet by the choice of proteins.
The effect of the choice of proteins on proteinuria and HLA induced
inflammation in the nephron is proven and evidence-based.
The study design gives no clue on the differentiation of the effects of
low-iron-diet and protein choice.
So necessary differentiations in the data ascertainment are missing and
masking the causes of the observations (my humble opinion).

It's getting late and I should've been asleep a while ago. If the above
sounds confusing, please ask, I'll try to clarify what I meant to say ;-)

I must have missed .. alot ..

The article stated .. "low iron diet" ..

It did NOT .. mention .. iron **supplementation** .

Why .. ?

Because like I said .. no iron NEEDED .. because iron ALREADY ..
present ..

You somehow .. 'bring in' .. iron supplementation .. WHEN .. the

'mentioning' .. iron supplementation .. you bring INTO .. 'this' ..
debate .. iron supplementation .. WHEN the whole PURPOSE .. of .. the
article is SPECIFICALLY to mention .. low iron diet ..

NOT .. 'iron supplementation' ..

Low iron diet is required in those people WITH iron overload .. and in
this article and as in other articles supplied the researchers have
agreed the iron 'on board. these patients is high enough to warrant a
.. low iron diet ..

NOT .. 'iron supplementation'

The study speaks of negative effects of iron on renal tissue and function
and to be an "important factor in the progression of [...] nephropathy" and
therefore recommends the "reduction of body iron" which they advice to be
"induced by use of a low-iron available diet" or the use of "iron absorption
inhibitors".

See the difference?

No .. I don't 'see' a .. difference ..

The article states that iron is a problem with renal failure ..

They used a low iron diet to reduce this problem ..

That means the .. problem .. INCLUDED .. high iron ..

You .. for some reason .. seem to be attempting to .. detract .. FROM
.. the FACT .. the low iron diet .. was INCLUDED .. because the iron
was CONTRIBUTING to the damage ..

You seem to be attempting to have people believe iron ..
supplementation .. is somehow involved.

Iron supplementation .. HAS .. been shown to be a problem .. BUT .. in
this SPECIFIC study .. iron supplementation is not mentioned ..

YOU somehow think iron supplementation is PERTINENT .. to .. THIS ..
study but in fact it is not ..

IRON .. is .. iron SUPPLEMENTATION is .. NOT ..

The iron ALREADY present .. is damaging the tissue ..

Where the iron is coming .. from .. is NOT .. mentioned ..

BUT since it is .. diabetes .. and since all diabetics have free
floating iron in their bodies and since ALL diabetics have NOT ..
supplemented iron .. then one can .. dedeuce .. the iron is coming from
some OTHER .. 'source' .. THAN your .. iron supplementation ..

Simply because .. iron supplementation is not mentioned AND the FACT it
is .. diabetes ..

Which .. has been plainly shown to have free .. floating .. iron ..

Logic ..

So your .. assumption .. OF .. iron supplementation BEING .. involved
.. is .. unproven .. but iron .. IS .. and WAS .. as evidenced ..
tested ..

Outcome .. ?

"Slower Progression of Diabetic Nephropathy"

What are you talking about??
Serum ferritin was normal at study begin, there was no "high iron".

Also [cite]"iron deficiency [..] prevented renal histological and functional

No "high iron" but the statement that iron has to be lower than normal
(cite: "deficiency").

No, I read the article. And gave cites for my statements from that article.

I did not say it was.
I did say that this study recommends a therapy by using insufficient data,
while this recommended therapy is the exact opposite of known helping
therapy and I gave medical background facts for that.

You are mixing correlation and causality.
Just because of the decreasing number of storks in north europe correlates
with the decreasing birthrate it doesn't mean that storks deliver babies.

The data ascertainment does not pay attention to the used kind of proteins.
Again: Correlation and causality are not the same. That kind of study design
is insufficient.

"substitution of iron-enriched red meats (beef and pork) with iron-poor (28)
white meats (poultry and fish"...
You know that? It's from the article you posted and we are talking about.

Again: There was no differentiation between effects of iron intake and kind
of protein intake. So nobody can tell from this study design, what caused
the slowed progression.
If I take two groups of T1 diabetics, give one group no insulin and the
other one insulin while watching StarTrek... would you consider StarTrek to
be the glucose lowering effector? That could also be commented wih your
"recovery is the data".
I think I might have mentioned it before: Correlation is no causality.

By the way: You snipped my question for medical background information on
one of your statements.

The trick on effectiv using a study is to have a minimum amount of knowledge
on the subject it talks about.

No, I didn't. If you reread my postings you might notice that. I talked
about the pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy. With that hint you should
be able to find out why I mentioned anaemia, although it is infact not the
subject of the article.

Of course it is not. For heavens sake... And I never said it was.

No, not the article. But necessary knowledge about basic pathophysiology.

I did not ask about your knowledge of the article.
I asked for your knowledge on pathophysiologic and pathobiochemical
background on the subject of diabetic nephropathy. Again: It'd be nice if
you read what I wrote before you start to imply statements I never made. But
I am getting an idea, why you did not answer my question. And somehow I also
get the idea you won't answer it.

Research is not done by believe. It is done by accuracy.

You know the difference between correlation and causality? This study gave
absolutely no evidence that the low iron diet CAUSED the improvement or was
anyhow involved. Remember... correlation? Insulin/StarTrek...
storks/babies...? You seem to lack basic skills of scientific research.

> YOU .. have a .. 'problem' .. with .. it .. ?

It? No. But with people who are unable to work with scientific studies or
understand limitations of study designs, interpretation of the outcome etc
and draw conclusions on insufficient data.

> Tell the researchers ..

Why? Everyone who is able to to scientifically read the study is able to put
it in its right place.

Learn the difference between correlation and causality. And try to get a

Do you have any kind of prove for the statement me being a fkg cow? Or are

wnat to talk about that?

The subject of that is cyanotic nephropathy not diabetic.
Also: "In conclusion, hyperviscosity by polycythemia may be responsible for
the
development of CN."
Primary polycythemia is a myeloproliferative condition and I am sure you
don't want to imply that it is present in each diabetic. Secondary
polycthemia occurs with altitude sickness or as a result of hypoxia and
would lead to increased erythropoiesis. That would contradict your former
statement that there is enough iron. I also doubt you would imply that the
other causes like kidney tumors or cushing syndrom apply to each diabetic
developing diabetic nephropathy.

> The erythrocytosis found to BE involved in diabetes ..
> http://tinyurl.com/yj7sqf

These articles are talking about relationship between insulin
resistence/metabolic syndrom and haematologic aspects which could lead to
cardiovascular problems and variations in haemodynamics. Which would give
the possibility to be an aspect for diabetic nephropathy in T2. T1 in
generell do not have insulin resistence (except sub forms). So they might
contribute in T2, but not T1. MIGHT. Not DO.

Free floating iron?? Are you kidding? Iron in the human body is present as

You should learn to read more carefully. I said that it is not related to
T1. You do know the difference between T1 and T2?
In the interest of a matter-of-fact discussion I will assume it was just
sloppiness instead of an intentional misdirection of my words.

I didn't. But you are free to try again.

It gave no clue that it DOES. So it would be an allegation and
misinterpretation to say so.

You also have problems with your hearing?

You know two year olds attending med school? Wow, that's imporessing.

Have fun.

Which reminds me of you calling me a cow... since cows in some cultures are
regarded as holy beings I take it as a compliment.

I don't consider myself to be religious although I find it philosophical
interesting in the context of development of ethics, moral or someone's
self-conception.

It was not me who brought up polycythemia.

It might help to understand the content of the placed articles instead of
choosing them by the words used in it.

Do you want to contribute aspects on the epidemiology of cyanotic
nepropathy?

LOL. Non-transferrin-bound. Indeed. Like I said above: Hemoglobin,
myoglobin, ferrin oder transferrin. Eliminate transferrin of that list and
there are hemoglobin, myoglobin and ferritin left.
But that URL to the discussion in May is interesting. You seem to have been
resistent to arguments and learning quite some time. And you really seem to
have an agenda of placing studies by looking at their words instead of the
content.

No, I don't need to. I can give facts because of knowledge on what I am
talking about. You give articles you don't understand but which include the
words you searched via google. Lacking arguments you loose your manners
(hmm... that would imply you had some before... discard that).

I don't think so. But that most probably won't bother you. But who cares
since you do your best to discredit yourself.

Have a nice day

So what you are saying is .. "I looked DIRECTLY .. at .. the article
you supplied and AGAIN .. hold to my learnin' ..  that there is no such
thing as 'free floating iron' .. and this non-existent free .. floating
.. iron .. is NOT .. one and the SAME ..  NTBI/nontransferrin bound
iron.."

IS.. that .. what you are saying .. ? .. or you having a hard time
translating .. ?

Just seeing if I am missing something or you are truly very , very ,
very .. stupid ..

Heh .. heh ..

RESULTS: NTBI (non-transferrin-bound iron ) was commonly present in
diabetes: 59% in newly diagnosed diabetes and 92% in advanced
diabetes

NTBI = free floating iron

Who loves ya.
