Abstract


Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Despite major advances made in the area of diagnosis and treatment of DN, death cases related to this ailment are not significantly reduced. Thus it is important to identify the risk factors for this condition.
