Proteinuria in an Otago diabetic population.
A prospective examination was conducted of a five man group practice in Mosgiel, Otago. The incidence of diabetes was ascertained, and the frequency of proteinuria in that diabetic population. Thirteen percent of those examined showed proteinuria. Proteinuria appeared best related to the presence of retinopathy, and the known duration of the diabetes.
