Type 2 Diabetic

Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most frequent cause of chronic kidney failure in both developed and developing countries. Diabetic nephropathy, is a clinical syndrome characterized by albuminuria (>300 mg/day) with permanent and irreversible decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Aim of the Work To study the role of urinary TNF-α and urine KIM-1 in type 2 diabetic patients as predictors of DN comparative with albuminuria. Patients and Methods This is a cross-sectional study which include 90 type-2 diabetic patients and 30 controls selected from the outpatient clinic of Assiut University hospitals. All patients gave an informed consent and approval for the study was obtained from the IRB committee of the Assiut Medical Faculty. The recruited patients were divided into three groups: Normo-albuminuria Group (A) (n = 30): UACR less than 30 mg/gm, Microalbuminuria Group (B) (n = 30): UACR between 30-299 mg/gm and Macro-albuminuria Group (C) (n = 30): UACR equal or more than 300 mg/gm. Assess Urinary TNF-α and urine KIM-1 in comparision with albuminuria. Results Urinary KIM-1 and urinary TNF-α are statically significant with albuminuria in patients in the early stage of diabetic nephropathy (eGFR _60 mL/min/1.73 m2).Also there are statically significance between patients with macroalbuminuria than microalbuminuria. Conclusion The results of this study recommend the use of KIM-1 and TNF-α as good predictors of early detection of development of diabetic nephropathy.
