Renal Impairment in Diabetes: Unraveling the Complex Interplay of Metabolic Factors

Abstract

Tait Santiago*

Diabetic nephropathy is a prevalent and debilitating complication of diabetes mellitus that significantly contributes to the global burden of chronic kidney disease. While it is well-established that diabetes is a major risk factor for the development of renal impairment, the precise mechanisms underlying this complex interplay between metabolic factors and renal dysfunction remain a subject of ongoing research. This article reviews the multifaceted relationship between diabetes and renal impairment, exploring the intricate web of metabolic factors and their influence on renal health. Understanding these mechanisms is critical for the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies for diabetic nephropathy.
