【 摘 要 】

Background: -Diabetes is a stage of persistent hyperglycemia due to absolute or relative deficiency of insulin. About 20-40% of patients with type 2 diabetes develop evidence of nephropathy. Diabetic nephropathy is first recognized as proteinuria. Microalbuminuria is defined as the range in between urinary excretion of albumin of 20-200 ?g/min or 30-300 mg/24 hrs. With a negative dipstick test.Results: -We found prevalence of microalbuminuria in present study to be 50%. A high percentage of hypertensive patients, patients having high FBS, PP2BS, cholesterol developed microalbuminuria. The group of patients having high urea and high creatinine has higher prevalence of microalbuminuria.Higher prevalence of microalbuminuria was seen in patients having high HbA 1 C.Conclusion: - As it is possible to halt or delay the progression of diabetic nephropathy by the use of appropriate treatment modalities such as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors at this stage, the study is helpful thereby in reducing morbidity and increasing life expectancy of patients with diabetes mellitus type 2."
