Urine proteome analysis by C18 plate-matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry allows noninvasive differential diagnosis and prediction of diabetic nephropathy.

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common complications in diabetic patients. New noninvasive markers are still needed for the early detection of DN before identifiable alternations in kidney function or urine albumin excretion occurs. A C18 plate and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ioniz...
