Abstract
Diabetes is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease and end stage renal disease (ESRD) globally. Diabetic kidney disease, previously known as diabetic nephropathy, is a general term used for deterioration of kidney function in patients with diabetes. It is important to diagnose and manage diabetic kidney disease early, so as to reduce the incidence of ESRD and the cardiovascular complications of diabetes. This article looks at the epidemiology, presentation and management of diabetic kidney disease.
