Clinical Study on Effect of Related Factors of Microalbuminuria in Early Stage of Diabetic Nephropathy / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to explore factors related to microalbuminuria of early stage of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Through epidemiologic survey, syndrome data of patients with early stage of DN were collected. The analysis was made on relationship between MAU (strain) of early stage of DN patients and the influencing factors (variable) with logistic regression analysis. The influencing factors were investigated in the early stage of DN patients in MAU. The epidemiological study showed a close relationship between factors such as active living style, easy irritability, drinking, old age, long disease course, phlegm and dampness body constitution, qi-stagnation body constitution, purple or dark tongue, thin and rapid pulse, yin deficiency and heat pattern, qi-yin deficiency pattern, cold and dampness pattern with the incidence of early stage of DN. It was concluded that there were 114 cases of early stage of DN with MAU of 20-52 μg·mL-1. The risk factors contained easy irritability, qi-stagnation body constitution, purple or dark tongue, yin deficiency and heat pattern, qi-yin deficiency pattern, as well as cold and dampness pattern. The protective factor contained active living style. There were 95 cases of early stage of DN with MAU of 53-199 μg·mL-1. The risk factors contained drinking, old age, long disease course, phlegm and dampness body constitution, as well as thin and rapid pulse.
