Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Nephrology
  • Clinical Chemistry

Background:

  • Primitive diabetes mellitus presents complex metabolic and renal challenges.
  • Disprotidemic patterns and altered protein excretion are observed in diabetic patients.
  • Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a key indicator of long-term glycemic control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the incidence of disprotidemia in primitive diabetes mellitus.
  • To analyze the relationship between urinary protein excretion, renal function, and glycemic control.
  • To determine the clinical significance of plasma protein electrophoresis and HbA1c in this population.

Main Methods:

  • Epidemiological study involving 397 patients with primitive diabetes mellitus.
  • Assessment of total urinary protein excretion over 24 hours.

  • Evaluation of renal function parameters, plasma protein electrophoretic patterns, and glycosylated hemoglobin levels.
  • Monitoring for the presence of edema.
  • Main Results:

    • The study identified a significant incidence of the disprotidemic pattern in the studied cohort.
    • Alterations in total urinary protein excretion and renal function were observed.
    • Plasma glycosylated hemoglobin levels correlated with observed clinical manifestations.
    • A notable association between these markers and the presence of edema was found.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings underscore the importance of evaluating plasma protein electrophoresis in diabetic patients.
    • Monitoring glycosylated hemoglobin is essential for assessing disease progression and complications.
    • These assessments are vital for understanding and managing renal function and edema in primitive diabetes mellitus.
