Association of renal function screening frequency with renal function decline in patients with type 2 diabetes: a real-world study in primary health care

Association of renal function screening frequency with renal function decline in patients with type 2 diabetes: a real-world study in primary health care

Abstract Aims To examine the association of the screening frequency of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) with the substantial reduction in eGFR (≥ 25%) among type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with normal (eGFR≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2) and impaired kidney function (eGFR< 60 ml/min/1.73 m2). Metho...
