What this trial studies
This study focuses on the serious complications of diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes. It aims to establish a long-term follow-up system that utilizes sensitive biomarkers, imaging techniques, and digital markers to comprehensively assess the progression of the disease. By developing a multimodal non-invasive diagnostic model and a new clinical staging system, the research seeks to create an accurate diagnosis and treatment framework that integrates both traditional Chinese and Western medicine approaches.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to more accurate diagnoses and improved treatment options for patients with type 2 diabetes nephropathy.
How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies on diabetic nephropathy, this approach combining multiple diagnostic methods and traditional medicine is relatively novel.
