Renal disease´s progression factors in diabetic people admitted in Internal Medicine

Abstract

Founding principle: Diabetic Nephropathy is a very important risk factor for the  development of cardiovascular disorders. It´s related with glomerular filtrate reduction and atherosclerosis. Then also many renal disease´s progression factors affect their physiophatological aspects and the prognosis.
Objective: To caracterize renal disease´s progression factors in diabetic people admitted in Internal Medicine period of 2012 to2013.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective descriptive longitudinal study was carried out. The sample was formed by 496 patients entered in the Internal Medicine Service, Military Hospital of Matanzas, and they haved  less than ten years of evolution of their illness, in the understood period of 2012 at 2013. The used variables of chronic renal disease´s progression factors were: age, microalbuminuria, glomerular filtrate, toxic habits, diet, sedentarism, blood pressure level, serum uric acid and lipid levels. For organizing the obtained indicators authors applied the descriptive statistic method, analyzing the information through distribution tables. The results were represented in numbers and percent.
Results: The most associated renal disease´s progression factors were hypertrygliceridemia, hyperuricemia and hyperglucemia. They respectively showed about 94,44 %, 80,33 % and 48,24 %. They were also associated with the worst affectation on glomerular filtrate and microalbuminuria in less than ten years old of diabetes evolution.
Conclusions: there is a high presence of chronic renal disease´s progression factors in diabetic people.
