CKD Progression and Economic Burden in Individuals With CKD Associated With Type 2 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Rationale & objective

To evaluate progression patterns and associated economic outcomes, using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) based on the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) risk categories, among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Study design

Patients with T2D and moderate- or high-risk CKD were selected from the Optum electronic health records database (January 2007-December 2019). Progression patterns and post-progression economic outcomes were assessed.

Setting & participants

Adults with T2D and CKD in clinical settings.

Predictor

Baseline KDIGO risk categories.

Outcomes

Progression to a more severe KDIGO risk category; healthcare resource utiliz
