The incidence of diabetic nephropathy among type 2 diabetes patients remains a significant public health problem. Duration of diabetes >10 years and female sex reduced the risk of diabetic nephropathy. Coronary heart disease and anemia increased the risk of diabetic nephropathy among type 2 DM patients. In light of these findings, early screening for diabetes complication is needed, and health professionals should give targeted intervention for type 2 DM patients with coronary heart disease comorbidity and anemia.
