Risk of developing chronic kidney disease in young-onset Type 2 diabetes in Korea.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the risk of developing chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with young-onset Type 2 diabetes (YOD, diagnosed age < 40 years). We enrolled 84,384 patients aged 20-64 who started anti-diabetic medication between 2010 and 2011 from the Korea National Health Insurance Sharing Service; patients with Type 1 diabetes or a history of CKD were excluded. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to adjust for YOD-distinct variables and compare the incidence of CKD between YOD and late-onset diabetes (LOD, diagnosed age ≥ 40 years). During the median observation period of 5.16 years (interquartile range: 4.58-5.77 years), 1480 out of 77,039 LOD patients and 34 out of 7345 YOD patients developed CKD. Patients with YOD had distinct baseline characteristics compared wi
