Correlations Among Glycemia and Glucose Variability, Thyroid Hormones, and Albuminuria in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyperglycemia, glucose fluctuations, and thyroid dysfunction contribute to the progression of diabetic nephropathy. This study aimed to investigate the associations of glycemia, glucose variability, and thyroid hormones with albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In total, 451 T2DM patients were included.
