Abstract In this study are investigated the cardiovascular risk factors that as shown in literature also represent risk factors for early glomerular function alteration in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The patients were divided according to their glomerular filtration rate in 2 groups, one group of patients with GFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73 m (118 patients) and the other with GFR between 60-89 mL/min/1.73 m2 (126 patients). Older age, hypertension, poor glycemic control, increased BMI, high LDL-cholesterol, high triglyceride level, insulin resistance and high level of apolipoprotein-B appeared to be more prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with mildly reduced kidney function. Even patients with mildly reduced GFR (without confirmed diabetic kidney disease) have an important aggregation of cardiovascular risk factors and their early identification is important for controlling them in order to further prevent glomerular decline.

Background: A Research glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 61 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with renal scanning 99mTc-DTPA glomerular filtration rate at the hospital 175. Objective: (1) To study characteristics of imaging of renal function. (2) Understanding the relationship between GFR with blood sugar, HbA1c, blood pressure and albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: Descriptive, prospective, cross-sectional study. Clinical examination, Clinical tests and 99mTc-DTPA GFR gamma - camera renography for patients. Result: GFR of the study group was 75,4 ± 22,3 ml/phut/1,73m2, the left kidney was 35,0 ± 13,0 is lower than the right kidney and 39,8 ± 11,9; p <0,01. There is no correlation between GFR with blood glucose and HbA1c, the risk of reduced GFR in hypertensive group associated is OR = 6,5 with p<0,01; albuminuria (+) is OR = 4,2 with p <0,01; and disease duration > 10 years is OR = 3,5 with p <0.01. Conclusion: GFR of the left kidneys is lower than the right kidney; correlation decreased GFR associated with hypertension, albuminuria and disease duration. Keywords: GFR, diabetes, albuminuria
