DIABETES AND CKD

Relation of diabetes and CKD
Diabetes type is the chronic health conditions affecting people from all around the world. It
occurs when the insufficient insulin is produced in the body or the body is not able to make the
use of available protein, it is called insulin resistance (Marso et al., 2016). It has been found that
diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure and accounts for nearly 44 per cent if novel cases.
It has been found that 10 to 40 per cent of patients with diabetes type 2 eventually develop
kidney failure (Wanner, Inzucchi, Lachin, Fitchett, von Eynatten, Mattheus, Johansen, Woerle,
Broedl, and Zinman, 2016).
The filtering components of the kidney are occupied with small blood vessels. With the time
high sugar intensities in the blood can trigger these vessels to turn into narrow and blocked.
Deprived of sufficient blood, the kidneys might damage and the albumin (a type of protein)
transmits through these specific filters and finishes up in the urine of patients where it should not
be (Mann et al., 2017). If the urine halts in the bladder for an extended time, the patient may get
urinary tract contamination. This happened as of bacteria. Bacteria are minute organisms like
microorganisms that can cause illness. They reproduce quickly in urine with an increased sugar
level. Most frequently these contaminations disturb the bladder, but they can occasionally extend
to the patient’s kidneys (Wanner et al., 2016).
Sharon is the 58 years old lady, her height is 170 cm, weight is 120 kg, and her waist
circumstances is 110cm. her diagnostic tests revealed that she has diabetes type 3 years before,
and have certain proteinuria. Her vital signs were 140/95 BP, eGFR of 85ml per minute, and
BGL 8 to 11 ml. She has been prescribed to take metformin twice a day. Metformin decreases
liver (hepatic) creation of glucose, reductions the absorption of glucose in intestinal, and
