A 24-hour urine collection and micro albuminuria were calibrated on an automated chemistry system.

The relationship between fine albuminuria and both the duration of the injury and the degree of diabetes control was studied.

  • Results: the prevalence of microalbuminuria in children with diabetes mellitus type 1 was 9.3%. microalbuminuria was more frequent in children with a duration of diabetes of more than 5 years (P<0.05), and it was more frequent in children with poorly controlled diabetes.
