Análise dos marcadores de lesão renal associados à alteração dos níveis glicêmicos no período de 2020 a 2021 de pacientes atendidos no laboratório clínico da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Goiás ​

Abstract

Objectives: To carry out the analysis of kidney injury markers associated with changes in glycemic levels in patients treated at the Clinical Laboratory of the Pontifical Catholic University of Goiás. Methods: Cross-sectional study, based on the results of laboratory tests from 2020 to 2021. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Results: Of the 312 charts analyzed, 239 charts were able to participate in the study, aged between 1 and 82 years, of which 49% (n=117) were female and 51% (n=122) male. There was a significant difference in the frequency of GFR alterations between genders (p=0.03), with a higher prevalence in females. In the association between age groups, all alterations had a significant difference, with a prevalence of glycemic alterations and GFR in individuals aged 60 years or more. There was an association between the change in GFR and the change in the glycemic index, where 48.3% of those who had a change in the GFR also had a change in the glycemic index. Conclusion: It is concluded that the association of glycemic alterations and renal markers corroborate the decrease in the filtration rate in individuals with diabetes without proper treatment, highlighting the importance of screening for the health of diabetic patients.
