During the first 5 years of diabetes, thickening of the glomerular basement membrane, glomerular hypertrophy, and mesangial volume expansion occur as the GFR returns to normal. After 5–10 years of type 1diabetes, nearly 40% of individuals begin to excrete small amounts of albumin in the urine.1 Microalbuminuria is present in 20-30% of all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and is especially common in those with hypertension, endothelial dysfunction and other features of insulin resistance.
