Title: [Frequency of renal failure in long-term diabetics]. Author: Zimmermann K, Schneider H. Journal: Z Urol Nephrol; 1985 Mar; 78(3):167-72. PubMed ID: 3873761. Abstract: The frequency of chronic renal insufficiency is inspected in a closed population. 3.06% of the inhabitants of the district of Neubrandenburg suffer from diabetes mellitus. 1,108 diabetics (these are 5.84% of all diabetics) have had the diabetes for 15 and more years. 44.91% of these long-term diabetics have an increased creatinine level. There are 9 long-term diabetics at the age up to 49 years per 100,000 inhabitants with restricted renal functions. The chronic renal insufficiency, which occurs with diabetics significantly more frequent than with non-diabetics, must be considered in the planning of dialysis capacities.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
