ABSTRACT: Introduction: To describe the epidemiologic profile, clinical and
paraclinical of diabetics presenting microalbuminuria at Marc Sankale center. Patients
and methods: We have done cross-sectional
and retrospective study in a descriptive and analytic view or way. It happened
within 6 months. Diabetic
patients who performed the nycthemeral urinary albumin dose and mentioned in
the file were included. The
last study is considered as a positive one from 30 to 299mg/24h: Microalbuminuria. The creatinine has been
noted and the clearing of the creatinine is calculated through the formula of Cockcroft and Gault. The statistical analysis of
data has been done thanks to software such as excel 2013 and SPSS VER 18.0. Results: 221 patients have been noted with 70% women and 30% men. The age varied
between 30 years and 85 years with an average of 56, 62 against 9.97 years.
Sixty three (63) patients have microalbuminuria (29%); creatinine has been
regularized to 25 patients with 14.8% of cases. Among the microalbuminuria
patients having completed the creatinine, 32 patients (42.7%) and 16 (21.3%)
are respectively in a state of chronical renal failure, light and moderated. Conclusion:
The microalbuminuria is frequent to diabetics. But in our series a starting
renal insufficiency could precede that microalbuminuria.
