Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the primary risk factors for developing renal impairment globally. The development of microalbuminuria has been considered to be one of the rst clinical signs of a classic course of diabetic nephropathy, which leads to macroalbuminuria and then to progressive loss of glomerular ltration rate (GFR) and eventually end-stage renal disease. Both type 1 and type 2 DM may lead to chronic complication of diabetic nephropathy (DN). The development of microalbuminuria has been considered to be one of the rst clinical signs of a classic course of diabetic nephropathy, which leads to macroalbuminuria and then to progressive loss of glomerular ltration rate (GFR) and eventually end-stage renal disease. Persistent macroalbuminuria predicts loss of kidney function and, more importantly, interventions that reduce macroalbuminuria also slow the loss of glomerular ltration rate. this prospective observational study was designed in an attempt to evaluate the relationship between microalbuminuria, albumin-creatinine ratio with other biochemical parameters in type 2 DM and to examine whether this relation differs from that of non-diabet
