Association between polyunsaturated fatty acids and progression among patients with diabetic kidney disease

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the major complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and one of the leading causes of end-stage renal disease. Early detection and treatment are contributing to delay the progression of DKD. Dietary management has potential benefits for DKD, especially the intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). However, there is a lack of sufficient evidence, so we aimed to explore the association between PUFAs intake and DKD progression.
