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.
