Overview
Risk Factors
Risk factors of diabetic nephropathy can be subcategorized into modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors:
Modifiable Risk Factors
Modifiable risk factors include:[1][2]
- Hypertension
- Dyslipidemia
- Smoking: smoking is associated with worsening renal function
- Inadequate glycemic control
Non-modifiable Risk Factors
Non-modifiable risk factors include:[1][2]
- Age: advancing age is a risk factor for diabetic nephropathy
- Race: African Americans, Native Americans and Hispanics are at higher risk of developing diabetic nephropathy
- Family history: patients with a family history of diabetic nephropathy are more likely to develop diabetic nephropathy themselves
- Genetic profile: genetic variants in ACE, ALR2, APOC1, APOE, EPO, eNOS, HSPG2, VEGF, FRMD3, CARS, UNC13B, CPVL/CHN2, and GREM1 have been implicated in the development of diabetic nephropathy
- Obesity: obesity and especially increased abdominal circumference are associated with higher incidence of diabetic nephropathy
