Article Synopsis
  • A significant number of people with diabetes develop chronic kidney disease (CKD), which often leads to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and is highly associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality.
  • Managing modifiable risk factors, such as hyperglycemia and hypertension, along with treating dyslipidemia is vital for patients with type 2 diabetes and CKD to reduce the risk of CVD.
  • Recent clinical trials demonstrate that medications like SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists can help protect kidney function in these patients, informing updated clinical practice guidelines for healthcare professionals.

Automated insulin delivery (AID) in people with type 1 diabetes (pwT1D) and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on haemodialysis (HD) has not been reported previously. We describe practical considerations and our findings in four pwT1D on HD for ESKD where AID was safely implemented, with significant improvements in time in range.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a global challenge; progression to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) associated with advancing nephropathy are a significant source of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expenditure. Until recently, renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade was the mainstay of pharmacotherapy in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), representing a therapeutic paradigm shift towards interventions that delay disease progression independently of antihypertensive effects. However, a significant residual risk of DKD progression persisted in patients established on RAS blockade, highlighting the need for additional treatment options.
