Authors' conclusion

In addition to using the current Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes CGA classification system, considering glomerular hyperfiltration status can improve the accuracy of predicting DKD progression.

Study context

Population
T2D patients with initial estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2; 7.2% had hyperfiltration
Participants

Exposure
Hyperfiltration vs normofiltration
Outcome

Follow-up
Mean 4.65 ± 3.86 years
