Abstract

There is a high prevalence of biomarkers for CKD among DM patients, the majority of them being undiagnosed. Over half of the DM patients had an eGFR consistent with advanced CKD. Strengthening routine screening for CKD biomarkers and enhancing the DM clinics with more diagnostic resources is recommended.
