Renal disease and hypertension in non–insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus

Abstract: Recent epidemiologic data demonstrate a dramatic increase in the incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), thus dispelling the mistaken belief that renal prognosis is benign in NIDDM. Currently, the leading cause of ESRD in the United States, Japan, and in most industrialized Europe is NIDDM, accounting for nearly 90% of all cases of diabetes. In addition to profound economic costs, patients with NIDDM and diabetic nephropathy have a dramatica… Show more

“…Pharmacological blockade of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system by either inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) or blockade of the angiotensin II receptor has clinically proven its ability to delay the progression of diabetic nephropathy [3,4,5,6,7,8]. The novel vasopeptidase inhibitors could be of therapeutic value in a variety of nephropathies, based on their potential to increase tissue concentrations of bradykinin and the organoprotective natriuretic peptides through inhibition of neutral endopeptidase in addition As a result of its dramatically increasing incidence, Type 2 diabetes has become the leading single cause of end stage renal disease in most industrialized countries [1]. Urinary excretion of albumin has been estab-to ACE [9].…”

“…Diabetic nephropathy is commonly associated with systemic hypertension, and it is well established that hypertension increases the rate of progression of renal dysfunction (2)(3)(4). The etiology of hypertension is multifactorial, but sodium retention and salt sensitivity may be important primary causal factors (5,6).…”
