Definition of Diabetic Renal Disease in Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus Based on Renal Function Tests

  • Chapter
The Kidney and Hypertension in Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Defining renal disease and renal involvement in diabetes appeared not to be an easy task, mainly because of the wide range of changes seen. The different degree of abnormalities, often with the same duration of disease, seemingly same quality of long-term metabolic control, and the same type of diabetes, may according to older literature indeed be striking [1–2]. However, with better techniques and more well-defined patients [3] much more consistency is found, although the situation in very long-term diabetes with normoalbuminuria still needs further clarification [4].
