Abstract

The global burden of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is increasing, remaining a leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Despite significant advances in kidney and DKD treatment, traditional clinical diagnostic tools for DKD are still inadequate and incomplete. While urinary microalbumin is an early sign of DKD and is used as a routine test in screening, kidney damage can still occur even in the absence of urinary microalbumin. Limitations in the diagnostic value and prognosis of urinary microalbumin indicate the need for new biomarkers that can replace and have clinical significance, allowing targeted and effective DKD treatment to reduce the burden of kidney disease. This overview focuses on biomarkers for early detection, especially with the hope of expanding the diagnostic window to identify patients at different stages of DKD progression.
