Abstract

Background: diabetic nephropathy is one of the most leading disorder in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Urinary albuminuria used for detection of nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus but its not an a sensitive and specific biomarker for DN. Recent studies found some of the sensitive and specific biomarker for early detection and progression of nephropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
Materials and Methods: A total 150 subjects included in the present study in that 100 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 50 healthy controls. All the subjects included after informed consent and blood, urine samples were collected from the all the subjects. FBS, PPBS, Urea, Creatinine, Uric acid, HbA1C and Urinary Albumin was analysed by using laboratory standard methods.
Results: statistically elevated levels of plasma FBS, PPBS, HbA1C in both the groups of type 2 diabetes mellitus when compared to healthy controls. Serum Urea, Creatinine and Uric Acid levels elevated in type 2 diabetes mellitus with microalbuminuria when compared to other two groups of study subjects. The Glycosylated hemoglobin positively correlated with urinary microalbuminuria in patients with two groups of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Conclusion: This study suggest that the poor glycemic control leads to increased further complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Continuous monitoring of HbA1C and Urinary Albumin Levels were useful for progression and treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Keywords: Type 2 diabetes mellitus, HbA1C, Urinary albumin.
