  ING is a very rare clinicopathological disease associated with smoking, obesity and hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and metabolic syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Nocturia

  […] associated with an increased risk of death in general, particularly from cardiovascular disease. [11] [14] Signs and symptoms [ edit ] The onset of symptoms is 5 to 10 years after the disease begins. [1] A usual first symptom is frequent urination at night: nocturia [en.wikipedia.org]

  Loss of tubular function--in particular of concentrating ability--gives rise to polyuria and nocturia. Radiographic studies show asymmetrically contracted kidneys with characteristic coarse scars and blunting and deformity of the calyceal system. [aippg.net]

The workup performed at admission included the following: creatinine 2.1 mg/dL; blood urea nitrogen 189 mg/dL; blood glucose 83 mg/dL; total cholesterol 363 mg/dL; LDL 162 mg/dL; triglycerides 99 mg/dL; serum albumin 2.6 g/dL; 24-hour proteinuria 1.8 [scielo.br]

(See Workup.) The overall prevalence of microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria in both types of diabetes is approximately 30-35%. [emedicine.medscape.com]

• Small Kidney

  kidney size Patients are tested for proteinuria by routine urinalysis; if proteinuria is present, testing for microalbuminuria is unnecessary because the patient already has macroalbuminuria suggestive of diabetic renal disease. [merckmanuals.com]

• Creatinine Increased

  However, over a 9-month period, serum creatinine increased gradually from 2.4 to 6.3 mg/dL. Proteinuria never fell below 5 g/day; maintenance hemodialysis was initiated due to the development of pericardial effusion, considered a uremic symptom. [ekjm.org]

  Dose should be decreased if symptoms of orthostatic hypotension develop or serum creatinine increases by more than 30%. [merckmanuals.com]

  The serum creatinine increased progressively from 3.2 to 5.9 mg/dL. Diuresis was preserved and he had proteinuria of 1.4 g/day with no microhematuria or leukocyturia. [mdpi.com]

The ability of MSCs to repair damaged mesangium represents a novel therapeutic intervention to reverse mesangial injury and is potentially a powerful and unique approach to prevent progression ending in end-stage renal disease (ESRD). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Screening for microalbuminuria and controlling hyperglycemia remain the pillars for the prevention of diabetic nephropathy. However, evidence from multiple studies suggests that controlling DKD is more challenging. [jrenhep.com]

Both type I and type II diabetes prevent the body from turning sugar into energy. Normally, eating sugar causes an organ called the pancreas to release the hormone insulin. This insulin turns the sugar into energy. [unckidneycenter.org]
