Ketoanalogue use is associated with a lower risk of worsening frailty among patients with diabetic kidney disease of advanced stage: A retrospective cohort study
Patients with DKD receiving ketoanalogues were less likely to have worsening frailty over time than non-users. Our findings uncover a new potential strategy of ameliorating frailty progression in this population carrying a high risk of accelerated aging.
