The value of functional magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of diabetic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The diversity of clinical trajectories in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) has made blood and biochemical urine markers less precise, while renal puncture, the gold standard, is almost impossible in the assessment of diabetic kidney disease, and the value of functional magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of diabetic pathological alterations is increasingly recognized.

Methods

The literature on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) for the assessment of renal alterations in diabetic kidney disease was searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases. The search time limit is from database creation to March 10, 2023. RevMan was used to perform a meta-analysis of the main parameters of fMRIs extracted from DKD patients and healt
