Diabetes
Diabetes is the number one cause of end-stage
kidney disease (ESKD) in the United States.
ESKD is when the kidneys are not able to work
well enough to maintain day-to-day life. In both
type 1 and type 2 diabetes, small amounts of
protein may appear in the urine. This is one of
the first signs of kidney damage. This is called
microalbumniaria. As the kidneys worsen,
more albumin in the urine appears, and micro-
albuminuria becomes full-fledged proteinuria.
