Given the success of the previous collection Diagnosis, Prevention and Treatment in Diabetic Nephropathy - Volume II, and the new advances in the field, we are pleased to announce the launch of Volume III. Diabetic Nephropathy, or Diabetic Kidney Disease, refers to the deterioration of proper functioning in the kidneys of patients affected by both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Almost 40% of diabetic patients are affected by this syndrome, increasing their risk of death. Diabetic Nephropathy is defined by increased urinary albumin excretion in absence of other renal diseases. Genetics, glycaemic control, and hypertension are the main factors that can influence kidney disease development. Diabetic nephropathy is divided into five stages of deterioration, with the final one being ESRD.
