<br/><br/> Constant increase in the incidence of type-1 diabetes (T1 - DM) has made it necessary to have new markers for the early detection of diabetic nephropathy (DN). One of the markers that could be helpful in detecting functional alterations in renal hemodynamics is assessment of  the renal resistive index (RI) by using renal Doppler. We studied 20 patients with T1 - DM (Group A), which comprised of 8 females and 12 males, with a mean age of 10.8 ± 2.4 years and duration of diabetes of 4 ± 1.1 years. A control group (Group B) comprising of  20 healthy children, 11 females and 9 males with mean age of 11.5 ± 2 years, was also studied
