Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) causes impairment in various organ systems including renal issues. It can cause impaired renal function which has a higher mortality risk and often progress to end-stage renal disease. The short article study aims to determine the correlation of kidney disease and investigate the relationship between various factors and impaired renal function in a population of patients with T2DM. Impaired glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was defined as <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2.
