Background: To investigate the clinical characteristics and predictive factors of subclinical diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: A total of 298 type 2 diabetes patients were divided into 3 groups based on 24- h urinary microalbumin and estimated glomerular filtration rate: patients with normal albuminuria and glomerular filtration rate ( NC), patients with normoalbuminuria and glomerular hyperfiltration ( SDN) and patients with microalbuminuria ( EDN). The renal size, tubular injury markers and ambulatory blood pressure were analyzed. Results: Renal size increased in the SDN and EDN groups compared to the NC group ( P < 0.05), while renal length in the SDN group was greater than the EDN group ( P < 0.05). Patients in the SDN and EDN groups had higher level of urine retinol binding protein and N- acetyl- beta- Dglucosaminidase and most of them developed proximal tubular dysfunction. The SDN group had higher 24- h mean and nocturnal diastolic blood pressure than the NC group ( P < 0.05), while the EDN group had higher systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure than the SDN group ( P < 0.01). More patients developed abnormal blood pressure rhythm in the SDN and EDN groups. The likelihood of a decrease in nocturnal systolic blood pressure was lower as the microalbuminuria increased. Increased renal size, more abnormal tubular injury markers and higher 24- h mean and nocturnal blood pressure were all risk factors of subclinical diabetic nephropathy. Conclusion: Patients with subclinical diabetic nephropathy had increased renal size, abnormal tubular injury markers, high blood pressure and abnormal circadian rhythm.
