Possible Use of the SUDOSCAN Nephropathy Risk Score in Chronic Kidney Disease Diagnosis: Application in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT: The use of quick and non-invasive techniques for detecting chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is desirable and has recently garnered attention. One of these techniques is the evaluation of nephropathy risk based on electrochemical skin conductance (ESC) measured with a SUDOSCAN device. This paper aims to evaluate the possibility of using SUDOSCANs in chronic kidney disease prediction in diabetic patients and to investigate the relationships between clinical characteristics and SUDOSCAN parameters. The number of patients with type 2 diabetes included in this study was 254. Clinical metabolic characteristics like glycated hemoglobin, total and LDL cholesterol, triglyceride, blood pressure, and creatinine were determined along with body mass index, diabetes
