BMC Nephrol
June 2005
Department of Medicine Veterans Affairs Hospital Hines, IL and Loyola University Medical Center Maywood, IL, USA.
Background: The risk factors for progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) have not been fully elucidated. Although uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) is known to be deleterious, other factors may become more important once BP is treated.
Methods: All patients seen in the outpatient clinics of our hospital between January 1993 and September 2002 with type 2 DM and clinical evidence of CKD were evaluated.
