The Epidemiology of Diabetic Kidney Disease

Ellen K. Hoogeveen · 1 Aug 2022

Globally, the incidence and prevalence of diabetes mellitus has risen dramatically, owing mainly to the increase in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In 2021, 537 million people worldwide (11% of the global population) had diabetes, and this number is expected to increase to 783 million (12%) by 2045. The growing burden of T2DM is secondary…

Patient Activation: The Cornerstone of Effective Self-Management in Chronic Kidney Disease?

Courtney J. Lightfoot, Devika Nair, Paul N. Bennett et al. · 3 Mar 2022

The importance of patient activation (i.e., the knowledge, skills, and confidence one has in managing one's own healthcare) in people with long-term conditions, including kidney disease, is growing. Enabling and empowering patients to take a more active role in their health and healthcare is the focus of person-centred care. Patient activation is recognised as a…

Cell–Matrix Interactions in Renal Fibrosis

Kristin P. Kim, Caitlin E. Williams, Christopher A. Lemmon · 7 Dec 2022

Renal fibrosis is a hallmark of end-stage chronic kidney disease. It is characterized by increased accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), which disrupts cellular organization and function within the kidney. Here, we review the bi-directional interactions between cells and the ECM that drive renal fibrosis. We will discuss the cells involved in renal fibrosis, changes that…

Ren.Nu, a Dietary Program for Individuals with Autosomal-Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease Implementing a Sustainable, Plant-Focused, Kidney-Safe, Ketogenic Approach with Avoidance of Renal Stressors

Diana Bruen, Jacob J. Kingaard, Meg Munits et al. · 13 Apr 2022

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited cause of renal failure and has limited pharmacological treatment options. Disease progression is relentless, and regression is not a known feature of ADPKD even with pharmacological intervention. Recent research has uncovered underlying pathogenic mechanisms that may be amenable to dietary interventions. Cyst cells in…

The Pathophysiological Basis of Diabetic Kidney Protection by Inhibition of SGLT2 and SGLT1

Yuji Oe, Volker Vallon · 18 Jun 2022

SGLT2 inhibitors can protect the kidneys of patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus and slow the progression towards end-stage kidney disease. Blocking tubular SGLT2 and spilling glucose into the urine, which triggers a metabolic counter-regulation similar to fasting, provides unique benefits, not only as an anti-hyperglycemic strategy. These include a low hypoglycemia risk…
