Diabetic kidney disease in the older adult: an update
Aging Health, 10/07/09

The physician should be aware of these risks. Unfortunately, many elderly diabetic chronic kidney disease/end–stage renal disease patients are not prescribed the treatments that are available. Over a third of new end–stage renal disease cases among the elderly are due to diabetic kidney disease. Prognosis is poor, even for those who receive a kidney transplant.
