Brief Summary:
The purpose of the study is to learn more about Microalbuminuria in children with and without diabetes Albumin is a protein that may be excreted in the urine In some conditions like kidney problems or diabetes the amount of albumin in the urine increases The purpose of this study is to measure concentration of albumin in the urine of diabetic children and compare to healthy children
Detailed Description:
Diabetic nephropathy is a known cause of significant morbidity and mortality in adult patients with diabetes Microalbuminuria MA is predictive of future diabetic nephropathy DN in adult patients with diabetes mellitus DM This link between MA levels and DN allows patients to receive timely interventions The predictive value of MA for DN in children with DM however is not well established Most studies looking at this association in children have only been forced to use adult MA values Children particularly adolescents are known to have different normal values for 24-hour total protein excretion compared to adults and it may be that they also have different normal levels of MA Little literature exists on normal levels of 24 hr MA in healthy children and in children with diabetes
In this study we seek to define the range of MA levels that falls between the 25 and 975 percentiles for children with and without DM Once these values are established we will have a foundation for further studies to define which if any MA values are predictive of DN in children If we can establish a MA level which is predictive of DN in children it will allow physicians to direct medical intervention at those most likely to benefit while protecting others from unnecessary medications procedures and risks
