The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of arteriosclerosis on new-onset renal damage in a Chinese community population with diabetes. Patients with diabetes who had attended at least one physical examination after the Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (BaPWV) test from 2010 to 2018 were selected as subjects. A total of 4,462 patients were included in the study cohort. BaPWV levels1,400 cm/s, 1,400-1,799 cm/s, and ≥1,800 cm/s were applied to divide the subjects into a normal arterial stiffness group, borderline atherosclerosis group and atherosclerosis group. Renal damage was defined by isolated proteinuria, isolated eGFR60 mL/min/1.73 m |
