Abstract

Objective: To study the clinical characteristics relating to differential diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy (DN) and non-diabetic renal disease (NDRD).

Methods: The subjects were patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Western medical history data and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) symptom pattern were collected, and logistic regression was used to analyze.

Results: Blood deficiency pattern [odds ratio () = 2.269, 0.017] and stagnation pattern ( = 1.999, 0.041) are independently related to DN.

Conclusions: TCM factors blood deficiency pattern and stagnation pattern are relating to differential diagnosis of DN and NDRD.

Keywords: diabetes mellitus, type 2; diabetic nephropathies; non-diabetic renal disease; renal insufficiency, chronic; syndrome complex.
