Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The 24-hour urinary protein quantitation (24h UTP) level and changes from baseline at 52 weeks.

Differences between groups using the changes in 24h UTP relative to baseline after 52 weeks treatment.

Time frame
baseline,52 weeks
2

The macular vascular density or foveal avascular zone area and changes from baseline at 52 weeks.

Differences between groups using the changes in macular vascular density or foveal avascular zone area relative to baseline after 52weeks treatment.

Time frame
baseline,52 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

The urine albumin creatine ratio (UACR) level and changes from baseline at each visit.

Differences between groups using the changes in UACR relative to baseline after 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks treatment.

Time frame
baseline, 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks
2

The eGFR level and changes from baseline at each visit.

Differences between groups using the changes in eGFR relative to baseline after 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks treatment.

Time frame
baseline, 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks
3

The ophthalmic indicators level and changes from baseline at each visit.

Differences between groups using the changes in ophthalmic indicators (macular perfusion density, foveal avascular zone acircularity index, macular thickness, et al) relative to baseline after 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks treatment.

Time frame
baseline, 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks
4

The Chinese medicine syndrome scores and changes from baseline at each visit.

Differences between groups using the changes in Chinese medicine syndrome scores relative to baseline after 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks treatment. (The score of the Chinese medicine syndrome scale ranges from 0 to 24, with higher scores mean a worse outcome.)

Time frame
baseline, 8, 16, 28, 40, and 52 weeks
