Diabetes and Kidney Disease: Nephroprotection
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common complication of type 2 diabetes. Advanced strategies focus on:
- Early detection through regular screening of albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).
- Nephroprotective medications like ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and SGLT2 inhibitors.
- Renal replacement therapies and advancements in dialysis for patients with end-stage kidney disease.
