Abstract

Development of persistent proteinuria — the clinical manifestation of diabetic nephropathy — is a strong prognostic marker in IDDM-patients. Not only does it precede the development of end stage renal failure, it is also associated with an increased risk of proliferative retinopathy, visual impairment and blindness, and with an increased risk of atherosclerosis leading to peripheral vascular disease and amputations, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, Sudden death and cerebrovascular disease and stroke.
