[Fibrin degradation products in the urine in diabetic nephropathy]. 1979

V Khristov, and P Apostolov, and T Stamenova

An immunologic methods was used in the assessment of FDP (fragments D and E). Urine of 15 diabetics with diabetic nephropathy was investigated. FDP findings are compared with the clinical picture and needle renal biopsy in some of the patients. The method is recommended as a sensitive diagnostic tests for the clinical practice.

D002908	Chronic Disease	Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed).

D003928	Diabetic Nephropathies	KIDNEY injuries associated with diabetes mellitus and affecting KIDNEY GLOMERULUS; ARTERIOLES; KIDNEY TUBULES; and the interstitium. Clinical signs include persistent PROTEINURIA, from microalbuminuria progressing to ALBUMINURIA of greater than 300 mg/24 h, leading to reduced GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE and END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE.
