Development and validation of a predictive nomogram for differentiating diabetic nephropathy from non-diabetic nephropathy in patients with T2DM: a multicenter study
The developed model offers a non-invasive, reliable alternative to renal biopsy for distinguishing between DN and NDN in T2DM patients. This tool proves especially valuable in clinical settings where renal biopsy is impractical, helping guide more appropriate treatment decisions.
