Microalbuminuria in Young Patients with Type 1 Diabetes

  • Chapter
The Kidney and Hypertension in Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Diabetic nephropathy is the main cause of the increased morbidity and mortality among patients with Type 1 diabetes [1,2,3]. In recent years it has been shown that a slightly elevated urinary albumin excretion rate (microalbuminuria) is an early predictor for later development of manifest diabetic nephropathy [4,5,6], The presence of hypertension in the diabetic individual markedly increases the risk and accelerates the course of the diabetic kidney disease [7]. Given the poor prognosis for patients developing manifest diabetic nephropathy emphasize the need for a uniform intervention programme for treatment of microalbuminuria in children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes.
