NCT00715481

Brief Summary

Reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has been recently shown to be a powerful predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in the general population, independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors. This observational study is aimed at assessing the association of reduced estimated GFR with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a large italian population (at least 15,000 subjects) of type 2 diabetic outpatients over a 4-year follow-up.
