Diabetes and kidney damage


Uncontrolled or poorly controlled diabetes affects the kidneys and leads to a condition called diabetic nephropathy, which is a leading cause of chronic renal failure in many countries, and Malaysia is no exception.

DIABETES is a condition where blood sugar is raised (hyperglycaemia) due to defects of insulin secretion (type 1), insulin action (type 2), or a combination of the two. Diabetics suffer from abnormalities of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism.
