Abstract

Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by a progressive loss of renal function that often leads to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), high risk for cardiovascular disease, and high mortality. Diabetes mellitus is a growing epidemic and is the most common cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney failure. Diabetic nephropathy affects approximately 20–40 % of individuals who have diabetes, making it one of the most common complications related to diabetes. Screening for diabetic nephropathy along with early intervention is fundamental to delaying its progression in conjunction with providing proper glycemic control. The kidneys play a vital role in the excretion of waste products and toxins such as urea, creatinine and uric acid, regulation of extracellular fluid volume, serum osmolality and electrolyte concentrations, as well as the production of hormones like erythropoietin and 1,25 dihydroxy vitamin D and renin. Material and Methods: This is a prospective and observational study was conducted in the Department of Biochemistry at Tertiary care Teaching Hospital over a period of 1 year. Either Gender aged between 18 and 70 years. The study participants were signed written informed consent before the start of data collection. The study participants were selected based on a convenient sampling technique and total of 120 study participants were included.  Subjects suffered from an acute infection and critically sick individuals were excluded from the study.  Results: There was a significant difference  between case when compared to  Control in Male and female.  There was a significant difference in case group in FBS, HbA1c, Urea and S. Creatinine when  compared to control group and no significant difference between both groups in SBP and DBP. Conclusion: The present study it can be inferred that serum urea and creatinine levels were significantly higher in CKD subjects then control subjects. Increased amount of urea and creatinine levels were seen only in CKD subjects and no difference was seen in controls. Thus, it can be recommend that urea and creatinine values can be used for screening of renal status in CKD subjects
