Domination of Nephrotic Problems among Diabetic Patients of Bangladesh

“

During 90s, the country has a relatively low diabetes affected population. According to the International Diabetes Federation, the prevalence will be around 15% by 2030. With diabetes, the small blood vessels in the body are damaged. When the blood vessels in the kidneys are damaged, they cannot filter blood properly. About 30% of patients with Type 1 (juvenile onset) diabetes and 10%-40% of those with Type 2 (adult onset) diabetes undergo kidney failure. The primitive sign of diabetic kidney disease is an increased excretion of albumin in the urine. This happens long before the usual tests done after seeing a physician. DKD is a progressive condition and is the chief cause of ESRD as well as a risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There is general agreement that people with diabetes should be screened regularly to detect early markers of kidney damage. People with diabetes and microalbuminuria should be treated with a most factual arbitration to retard the progression of DKD.
