Non-Diabetic Kidney Disease in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Changing Spectrum with Therapeutic Ascendancy.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

Owing to changing epidemiology and therapeutic practices, a change in the spectrum of renal involvement in Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has also been noted. The treatment of non-diabetic kidney disease (NDKD) differs from diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and the reversibility of NDKD in many cases to normal, prompts biopsy for rapid and accurate diagnosis. Data are scarce on kidney biopsy findings in T2DM.

Study design & setting

In this observational study, we prospectively collected the data of kidney biopsies of patients aged ≥ 18 years with T2DM admitted between 1 August 2005 and 31 July 2022. The clinical, demographic and histopathological data were evaluated. The spectrum of kidney involvement in the form of DKD and/or NDKD was studied. The imp
