Résumé:
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition that is steadily increasing worldwide. Among its most
common and serious complications is diabetic nephropathy, which can progress to chronic kidney
disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate renal disturbances in diabetic patients through the
analysis of serum and urinary biochemical markers, and to investigate the correlation between
diabetes duration and renal impairment. The study involved a population of 38 diabetic patients,
mostly type 2, primarily aged between 60 and 70 years, with a female predominance and frequent
overweight conditions. The results showed that 40% of the patients presented renal disturbances,
characterized by elevated serum levels of creatinine, urea, uric acid, and the presence of proteinuria.
These disturbances were more common among patients with diabetes duration exceeding 10 years.
This study highlights the importance of regular screening for renal complications in diabetic patients,
particularly at an early stage, in order to prevent severe outcomes.
