Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the disease which has reached epidemic proportion worldwide Diabetic kidney disease DKD is an important and irreversible microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus which is characterized by persistent proteinuria hypertension and progressive irreversible decline in renalfunction The present study was carried out to stratify proportion of diabetic nephropathy as reflected by proteinuria according to duration of diabetes mellitus as well as to identify the possible demographic anthropometric and hemodynamic risk factors for the development of proteinuria This crosssectional study was conducted on 74 patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus Age sex height weight systolic and diastolic blood pressure and body mass index was recorded 4ml of fasting venous blood was collected under aseptic precaution Proteinuria was assessed semi quantitatively using dipsticks All data is presented as MeanplusmnSD Unpaired student ttest was used to compare mean values of continuous variable Total 37 out of 74 participants showed FPG 126 or more mgdl out of which 2237595 showed no proteinuria but 1537405 showed proteinuria Total 14189 participants out of 74 were obese out of which 571 814 did not have proteinuria while 429 614 hadproteinuria There was clear association seen in frequency of proteinuria with the duration of diabetes 45 of patients who had diabetes for more than 10 years developed proteinuria as compared to 357 and 10 patients who had proteinuria for 510 years and less than 5 years respectively Frequency of proteinuria in type 2 DM patients was 2432 Predictors were BMI FBG and duration of diabetes mellitus Early measurements should be taken to control obesity blood pressure and blood glucose to reduce the occurrence of diabetic nephropathyKeywords Proteinuria Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Diabetic nephropathynbsp
