A retrospective analysis was done on 2 groups of NIDDM patients, one g roup without proteinuria (urine protein< 300mg/24h, n=106) and the other group w ith proteinuria (urine protein≥500mg/24h, n=106). The 2 groups were matched by age(≤±3yrs), sex, ethnic and resident place. Some information of these subject s including demographic; history of disease, family history of diseases, lifesty le and behavior style variables was obtained by questionnaire; some variables w ere measured, including systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting blood glucose (FBG), quantity of protein in 24h urine. Then condi tional logistic regression analysis was performed.Results. Some factors, including history of hypertension, longer duration of hy pertension, higher levels of the past highest SBP and DBP, were independently as sociated with the occurrence risk of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Their correspond ing odd ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were 2.00(1.17～3.43), 1 .25(1.08～1.46), 1.38(1.15～1.66), and 1.33(1.09～1.62) respectively, but family history of hypertension was not significantly associated with the development o f DN. When the above mentioned relations were respectively adjusted by some pos sible confounding factors, they still existed.Conclusions. History of hypertension, longer duration of hypertension, higher l evels of the past highest SBP and DBP are independent risk factors for DN in Chi nese NIDDM patients.展开更多
