to determine whether sustained control of hyperglycaemia in type 2 ( non-insulin-dependent ) diabetic patients would diminish proteinuria , the effect of hypocaloric diet therapy ( 500 kcal/day ) on proteinuria was assessed in obese , type 2 diabetic patients ( n = 24 ) and compared with results obtained for obese subjects with normal glucose tolerance ( n = 7 ) and impaired glucose tolerance ( n = 6 ) .
