- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method changes in proteinuria random urine protein/creatinine ratio every 2month and 24hour urine protein every 6month comparison of proteinuria amount checked by random urine protein/creatinine and 24hour urine protein
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method changes in serum creatinine serum creatinine every 2month comparison of renal function checked by serum creatinine and calculated renal function by MDRD equation
changes in systolic blood pressure and diastolic pressure check blood pressure at very first visit and every 2-month check systolic and diastolic blood pressure
changes in serum 25(OH)2D3, 1,25(OH)2D3, parathyroid hormone every 6month serum marker check every 6month
changes in serum inflammatory markers (hsCRP, IL-6) every 6month serum marker check every 6month
changes in urinary biomarkers (angiotensinogen, angiotensin II, TGF-beat, IL-6, MCP-1, TNF-alpha) every 6month urine marker check every 6month
