- Zusatztext
- Dieser Band konzentriert sich schwerpunktmäßig auf die klinische Bedeutung der diabetischen Nephropathie, die bei jedem dritten Patienten mit Diabetes des Typ I auftritt. Wird die diabetische Nephropathie nicht behandelt, so kann dies zu einem progressiven Rückgang der Nierenfunktion führen, die mit einer Retinopathie und arteriellem Bluthochdruck einhergeht. Als Folge des arteriellen Bluthochdrucks kann es zu Herzkreislauferkrankungen kommen, die zum Tod des Patienten führen können. Dieses Buch vermittelt eine fundierte Einführung in die aktuelle Grundlagen- und klinische Forschung. Es bietet einen praktischen klinischen Ansatz zu einem aktuellen und äußerst wichigen Forschungsbereich.
