Purpose: Long-term uncontrolled diabetes can cause a deterioration in the kidney function. The diabetes is the most frequent cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in most countries. In previous study in Libya as a cause of CKD in (49%) of study sample. for this reason, we investigated and collected data from the Tsawa city southern Libya to determine the relationship between uncontrolled diabetes and the CKD. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data was collected from 303 adults visiting Tsawa Hospital from July 2023 to august 2023. Biochemical parameters, including random blood sugar, HA1C, kidney function tests (urea, creatinine) and urine. Statistical analysis using SPSS version 21 program to calculate correlation between analysis values. Results: There is a significant correlation between blood glucose levels and kidney dysfunction was observed (p < 0.05), (p< 0.01) The study revealed that 31% of the 303 participants examined had high random blood sugar levels. Among these cases, 57% (**p< 0.01) had elevated urea levels. 71 % of the cases showed elevated HbA1c levels which suggests that individuals with poorly controlled blood sugar over time. The study found that 8% diabetic patients (*p < 0.05) had elevated creatinine levels. 53% of patients (**p< 0.01) showing proteinuria which is a crucial indicator of kidney damage, and its presence in over half of the diabetic patients in this study indicates that a significant proportion of individuals with diabetes are at risk of developing more severe kidney damage. Conclusions: Uncontrolled long standing Diabetes considered as a risk factor for Chronic Kidney Disease, so, comprehensive diabetes management and regular monitoring of the kidney functions in diabetics are vital components to prevent or delay the onset of chronic kidney disease.
