Incipient Albuminuria in Persons with Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A 5-Year Retrospective Cohort Study.
CONCLUSION: This study highlighted the importance of early screening and treatment of diabetes as well as prevention of hypertension, which could potentially delay the onset of microalbuminuria in persons with type 2 DM. Persons on ACEI or ARB treatment should continue to be monitored regularly for progression to albuminuria.
