The article studies the indicators of renal tests in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It is found that NAFLD in patients with DM type 2 potentiates the development of diabetic nephropathy. Patients with DM type 2 and NAFLD have enhancement of tubular reabsorption, resulting from the violations in vasoconstriction/vasodilatation ratio. Urine creatinine can be considered a stable indicator of liver function test parameters and an early marker for progression of diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 DM and NAFLD.
