WCN25-1780 ULTRASTRUCTURAL CHARECTORISTICS OF DIABETIC NEPHROPATHY AND ITS PREDICTIVE ROLE IN ASSESSING DISEASE PROGRESSION: A RETROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY
Diabetes mellitus(DM) is considered as a modern epidemic. The prevalence of DM has risen from an estimated 30 million cases in 1985 to 537 million in 2021. Diabetic nephropathy(DN) is an important complication of DM. Early DN can only be diagnosed by electron microscopy (EM). The literature regarding ultra-structural findings in diabetic nephropathy is scarce. With this study we aim to describe the light microscopic and ultra-structural findings in various stages of diabetic nephropathy and evaluate their predictive role in assessing progression.
