IntroductionIntroduction• Diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause for Diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause for
end-stage renal disease (ESRD).end-stage renal disease (ESRD).• It occurs in ~ 30 % of people with type 1 diabetesIt occurs in ~ 30 % of people with type 1 diabetes 25 – 40 % type 2 diabetes25 – 40 % type 2 diabetes• Risk factors include hyperglycemia, hypertension, Risk factors include hyperglycemia, hypertension,
genetic predisposition, albuminuria,…genetic predisposition, albuminuria,…• Early identification of patients who are at high risk is Early identification of patients who are at high risk is
mandatory in order to prevent the development or mandatory in order to prevent the development or progression of diabetic kidney injury. progression of diabetic kidney injury.
• MicroalbuminuriaMicroalbuminuria is the earliest marker, is the earliest marker, predicts progressive diabetic predicts progressive diabetic nephropathynephropathy (80 % of type 1 diabetics progress to overt nephropathy over a (80 % of type 1 diabetics progress to overt nephropathy over a period of 10 – 15 years, GFR gradually falls, ESDR develops in 50 % within 10 years period of 10 – 15 years, GFR gradually falls, ESDR develops in 50 % within 10 years and > 75 % by 20 years) and > 75 % by 20 years)

• Necessity of specific interventions :Necessity of specific interventions : - - optimization of glucose control (DCCT, UKPDS)optimization of glucose control (DCCT, UKPDS) - optimization of blood pressure control- optimization of blood pressure control - Screening and treatment of microalbuminuria (ACE - Screening and treatment of microalbuminuria (ACE inhibitors , ARBs)inhibitors , ARBs)
To reduce the risk and/or slow the progression of nephropathy To reduce the risk and/or slow the progression of nephropathy
ObjectiveObjective
•Evaluate the effect of ACE inhibitors on the Evaluate the effect of ACE inhibitors on the progression of nephropthy in type 1 diabetic patients.progression of nephropthy in type 1 diabetic patients.
• UAER (Urinary albumin excretion rate) was determined on a sample of 24 hours collected urines using immunoturbidimetric method.
Cytobacteriological exam of urines
Diagnosis of : Persistent microalbuminuria : if at least 2 of 3 analyses in a 6- month period were in the 30 – 299 mg range. Macroalbuminuria ≥ 300 mg /24h • Arterial blood pressure was measured at every visit Hypertension : BP ≥ 140 / 90 mmHg or antihypertensive treatment
• Yearly screening and diagnosis of other degenerative complications (Ocular fundus …).
• Renal function was evaluated after a follow up period of 2 years.
