Associations between serum JAML, nesfatin-1, and 25(OH)D and the risk of diabetic kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes
Diabetes is rising rapidly worldwide, and many patients eventually develop kidney problems known as diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Detecting DKD early is crucial, but current tests often fail to catch it in its early stages. Researchers are now exploring new blood markers that could provide better insight, including JAML, a protein linked to kidney injury; Nesfatin-1, a hormone involved in appetite and metabolism; and Vitamin D (25(OH)D), which may help protect the kidneys. This study looks at how these markers are connected to the risk of DKD in people with type 2 diabetes, aiming to improve early detection and treatment strategies.
