Renal function trajectories before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japanese individuals with type 1 diabetes: a post-hoc analysis of the multicenter retrospective investigation by the IPRA-CKD study group.

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study tracked 190 people with type 1 diabetes over 60 months. It looked at how kidney function changed before and during the pandemic. It shows a link between lifestyle changes and kidney health, but it does not prove cause. The data is observational, so it is not a strong proof of effect.
