[Diabetes mellitus in advanced age. 7. Kidney function and behavior of blood pressure in long-term diabetic patients in the Newbrandenburg district].
Only 5.84 per cent of the 19,968 diabetics of the district Neubrandenburg had a diabetes duration of 15 and crore years (long term diabetics) in 1982. 44.9 per cent of these long term diabetics showed increased serum Oeatinine values and 54.7 per cent a hypertonia, where the fracture of each of these pathological influence parameters rose in conformability of the age. The frequency of hypertonia grew with rising serum creatinine value. The role of hypertonia for the excess mortality of the long term diabetics is well proved, where a persistent hypertonia possibly accelerates the renal failure stronger than a no more settled metabolism as it occurs in this group of patients. The high frequency of hypertonia values of blood pressure with the long term diabetics of a country district lets expect existing reserves in reading an improve of prognosis by optimizing the methods of antihypertensive therapy.
