Research Article: Shear-Wave Elastography-Based Radiomics Nomogram for the Prediction of Cardiovascular Disease in Patients with Diabetic Kidney Disease

Date Published: 2023-09-07

Abstract:
Type diabetes mellitus (TDM), characterized by hyperglycemia, is a big health challenge around the world that has attracted a lot of attention. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), a common microvascular complication of TDM, may lead to end-stage renal disease which shortens life expectancy and decreases quality of life., Inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, electrolyte disturbances, etc. play important roles in the pathogenesis of DKD, which are also the leading causes of the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD)., DKD patients have a high risk of suffering from CVD, placing a heavy cost on the public health system., Decreased renal function is regarded as an independent predictor of CVD; hence, DKD patients are more likely to develop CVD than the general population, leading to worse functional outcomes and mortality.– At the same time, they suffer from under-treatment due to lack of knowledge of CVD risks. However, the mechanisms underlying the development of CVD in DKD patients have not been completely elucidated, and the individual prognosis are usually heterogeneous. Therefore, identifying risk factors of CVD in DKD patients and intervening early in high-risk patients may lead to improved prognosis.
