Prevalence of albuminuria and renal dysfunction and related clinical factors in Japanese patients with diabetes: The Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention prospective study (JDCP study 5)

The current results suggest that renal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes is heterogeneous and different mechanisms may be involved in albuminuria and deterioration of renal function.This article is protected by copyright.
