This 7-year retrospective longitudinal study was carried out in order to clarify the clinical features of elderly type 2 diabetic patients with microalbuminuria. Elderly Japanese type 2 diabetic patients (n = 22; age 50 - 73 years) with microalbuminuria were studied retrospectively. Patients whose urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) decreased 7 years were considered 'nonprogressors' (n = 8) whereas those whose UAER increased were considered 'progressors' (n = 14). The mean 7-year level of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) did not differ significantly between non-progressors and progressors but the mean 7-year blood pressure (BP) of progressors (101 +/- 8 mmHg) was significantly higher than that of non-progressors (92 +/- 7 mmHg). In progressors who received no anti-hypertensive drugs, systolic BP was above the BP goal of 130/85 mmHg but mean BP and diastolic BP were below this goal. The results are consistent with the view that hypertension affects the progression of microalbuminuria; raised systolic BP may be a factor in this progression in elderly type 2 diabetic patients.

D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more.

D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.
