Abstract:
Diabetic kidney disease is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. The pathogenesis and risk factors for the development of diabetic kidney disease are complex and multifaceted, resulting in glomerular hypertrophy, tubulointerstitial inflammation, and fibrosis. The clinical staging progresses over 5 stages from early hyperfiltration to overt nephropathy. Primary prevention like glycaemic control, control of blood pressure, treatment of dyslipidemia and lifestyle modifications have shown promising benefits. Despite widespread research, very few drugs are available to retard disease progression. More literature and research are needed to fill these lacunae. We carried out a literature search focusing on newer updates in diabetic kidney disease pathophysiology, diagnosis and management using a PubMed search through the National library of medicine using keywords "Diabetic kidney disease," and "Diabetic nephropathy" till the year 2022. We have summarized the relevant information from those articles.
