Plasma vasclular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) level of patients with diabetic nephropathy and intervention treatment / 中国糖尿病杂志

ABSTRACT

Plasma VEGF level of T2DM was higher than that of normal control （NC, n=30） and progressively increases from normal albuminuria （NA, n=26） to microalbuminuria （MA,n=26） and to macroalbu-minuria （ODN, n=24） groups, The VEGF level was positively correlated with the levels of creatinine, HbA1c and UAER and, decreases after losartan treatment in groups of MA and ODN.
