Introduction: diabetic nephropathy is a metabolic disturbance in which hyperglycemia induces dysfunction in different kinds of kidneys cells. It derives in progressive renal insufficiency. Objective: to describe the behaviour of renal function variables in type 2 diabetic patients in three family physician consultation (CMF, abbreviation in Spanish) of the Community  Polyclinic “José J. Milanés”, municipality of Matanzas in the period May 2013-May 2014. Materials and methods: descriptive, transversal study in a universe of 129 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Simply randomized sample composed by 85 patients. The studied variables were time of disease evolution, glycemia, creatinine, microalbuminuria and glomerular filtration. Results: 39 patients were found in a diagnostic period between 6 and 10 years, the biggest percent (45.9 %) corresponding to this stage. 74 patients (87 %) presented hyperglycemia and 30 patients (76.9 %) showed high quantitites of creatinine. Patients that were in the II stage for 43.6 % and evolution time between 6 and 10 years predominated in the glomerular filtration; 42.1 % of the patients with less than 5 years of the disease evolution showed amounts of microalbuminuria of over 30 mg/l. Conclusions: it was found the predomination of patients with 6-10 years of evolution time, the group with the highest percent of patients with increased glycemia, creatinine, glomerular filtration and microalbuminuria.
