Clinical features of and risk factors for normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A retrospective cross-sectional study

BMC Endocrine Disorders May 28, 2021

Dai Q, Chen N, Zeng L, et al. - This research sought to explore the features and risk factors for normoalbuminuric diabetic kidney disease (NADKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Researchers performed a retrospective cross-sectional study including 1,620 patients, 500 (30.9%) had DKD, of which 9% had NADKD. Between August 2012 and January 2020, the related clinical and laboratory data of patients with T2DM hospitalized were obtained for statistical analysis. Patients with T2DM were classified into four groups on the basis of the presence or absence of albuminuria and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate. It was shown that NADKD is mainly correlated with macrovascular rather than microvascular complications. The findings suggested that NADKD is more common in patients with normoalbuminuric T2DM with older age, previous use of RASIs, and good glycemic control.
