Study summary

Sympathetic overactivity induces insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so we assume that renal denervation (RDN) might improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of multi-electrode catheter-based RDN on glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in patients with T2DM.

Read the detailed description

Sympathetic overactivity induces insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so it is assumed that renal denervation (RDN) might improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Some clinical studies have shown that glucose metabolism is improved in patients with resistant hypertension both 1 and 3 months after RDN, and fasting glucose, insulin and C-peptide decreased significantly as did insulin resistance assessed by HOMA-IR. But in some clinical studies, RDN did not lead to a significant improvement of insulin sensitivity ≤12 months after treatment, and no effect in systemic sympathetic activity was observed after RDN. Therefore, the efficacy of RDN on glucose metabolism is still in controversy. The investigators wish to investigate the effect of multi-electrode catheter-based RDN on glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in patients with T2DM.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes in glucose metabolism from baseline to 6 months

    To investigate the influence of RDN on glucose metabolism. Hereby evaluating Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) before and after RDN.

    Time frame: 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Changes in glucose metabolism up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on glucose metabolism. Hereby evaluating Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) before and after RDN.

    Time frame: 3, 12 and 24 months

  2. Changes in insulin and C-peptide up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on insulin and C-peptide.

    Time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 months

  3. Changes in catecholamine up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on catecholamine.

    Time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 months

  4. Changes in glucagon up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on glucagon.

    Time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 months

  5. Changes in blood pressure up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on blood pressure.

    Time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 months

  6. Changes in triglyceride and high density lipoprotein (HDL) up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on triglyceride and HDL.

    Time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 months

  7. Changes in renal function up to 2 years

    To investigate the influence of RDN on creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN).

    Time frame: 3, 6, 12 and 24 months
