Approaches to improving outcomes related to diabetic kidney disease. The best approach to prevent diabetic kidney disease is to prevent diabetes itself. However, once diabetes occurs glycemic control may prevent/delay the development of diabetic kidney disease. In those patients who develop diabetic kidney disease, glycemic control, blood pressure control, and RAAS inhibition are all important in delaying/decreasing progression to ESRD and glycemic control, blood pressure control, and lipid management are all important in delaying/decreasing the development of CVD. CVD, cardiovascular disease; ESRD, end-stage renal disease; RAAS, renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system. White arrows denote potential preventive measures.
