Abstract
Diabetes has become a global pandemic and is believed to be one of the most common risk factors for chronic kidney disease, which leads to end-stage renal disease, of which a significant number will develop, requiring renal replacement therapy. Uremic encephalopathy is the most frequent complication of untreated chronic kidney disease, is defined as cerebral dysfunction due to toxin accumulation. If this occurs, renal replacement therapy, which is urgent dialysis, is essential for lowering the patient's mortality. We report a 48-year-old female patient with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes who presented with delirium, poor physical performance and muscle mass loss.
