Abstract :

Objective: To study the effects of barley and wheat semolina to a renal diet on renal parameters in patients with CKD stage 2 Material and methods:Randomly selected type 2 diabetes mellitus with CKD stage 2 patients were included in the study. The basic design of the study was 30 days intervention trail. Selected biochemical and anthropometric measurements were observed before and after intervention period. Student t&ndash;test was used to detect significant changes within each group. Results: Significant improvement was observed with barley and wheat semolina intervention in anthropometric and biochemical parameters.Highly significant difference were in weight (P&lt;0.000) and triceps (P&lt;0.000) with barley and wheat semolina. Renal parameters of uric acid (P&lt;0.000) showed significant with barley and wheat whereas serum creatinine ((P&lt;0.060) was not significant. Significant urine albumin excretion (P&lt; 0.000) was observed with barley semolina intervention. FBS (P&lt;0.001) and PPBS (P&lt;0.000) were also observed significant with barley semolina whereas wheat semolina showed improvement in PPBS and no difference with rice semolina.Renal function ofuric acid (P&lt;0.033) and urinary albumin excretion (p&lt;0.007) found significant in barley and wheat semolina and there was no significant difference were observed for serum creatinine with barley, wheat and rice semolina intervention. Conclusion:Barley and wheat semolina intake in eakfast has been shown to have beneficial effects on anthropometric, renal parameters and glycemic control in CKD stage II patients. Among cereal interventions the wheat semolina showed better improvement in anthropometric measurements and barley semolina intervention found to have better cardiac, glycemic and renal functions.
