Prediagnostic plasma proteomic signatures associated with incident chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

Researchers followed 1,715 adults with type 2 diabetes for an average of 14.6 years. They found that certain proteins in the blood can signal future kidney damage. This shows a link between these blood markers and kidney disease, but it is not proof of cause.
