Peer Review #1 of "The role of serum and urinary biomarkers in the diagnosis of early diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes (v0.2)"
Abstract:Background: Previous studies have shown that a variety of biomarkers are closely related to the occurrence and development of early-stage diabetic nephropathy (DN) in patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of multiple sera and urinary biomarkers in the diagnosis of early-stage DN in patients with type 2 diabetes.
