Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) affects up to 40% of individuals with Type 2 diabetes and remains the leading cause of chronic kidney and end-stage renal disease worldwide. While recent therapeutic advances like SGLT2 inhibitors, finerenone and GLP-1 receptor agonists are transforming treatment, a critical challenge remains: ensuring clinical trials reflect the populations most impacted. With new FDA Diversity Action Plan requirements, the need for accurate, real-world demographic data has never been greater. Emerging insights from large-scale EHR datasets are helping bridge this gap, enabling more representative trial design and ultimately improving outcomes for patients. ▶ Read more on how data-driven approaches are advancing DKD research » http://spr.ly/6041B6Yaqt
