Diabetes & Kidney Damage — The Hidden Risk

Most people with diabetes monitor their sugar levels — but miss the silent impact on their kidneys.

Here’s what many patients don’t realize:
Kidney damage from diabetes often starts quietly — with no pain, no early warning signs, and normal routine feeling.

How Diabetes Harms Kidneys

* High blood sugar damages kidney filters (glomeruli)
* Protein starts leaking in urine
* Filtering capacity slowly drops
* Risk of chronic kidney disease rises

Early Detection Markers That Matter

* Urine microalbumin test
* Serum creatinine & eGFR
* Blood pressure trends
* Long-term HbA1c control

Kidney Protection Strategy for Diabetics

* Tight sugar control
* Aggressive BP management
* Annual kidney screening
* Early nephrology consultation
* Kidney-protective medications (when indicated)

Key Clinical Truth:
By the time symptoms appear — significant kidney function may already be lost. Screening is protection.

If you have diabetes for more than 5 years — kidney evaluation should be routine, not optional.

EARLY WARNING SIGNS OF

Don’t Ignore What Your Body Is Telling You

Key Symptoms to Watch For

* Swelling (Edema)
Puffiness around the eyes, feet, ankles, or hands can signal fluid retention due to kidney stress.

* Persistent Fatigue
Healthy kidneys help maintain energy levels. Kidney dysfunction can lead to anemia and constant tiredness.

* Changes in Urine
Foamy urine, frequent urination, reduced output, dark color, or blood in urine are important warning signs.

Why Early Detection Matters

Kidney disease often progresses silently. Recognizing these early signs allows timely evaluation, slowing progression and protecting long-term kidney health.

— 4 February
Theme: United by Unique

Every cancer journey is different — every patient, every diagnosis, every recovery path. What unites us is awareness, timely screening, personalized care, and continuous support.

Kidney health and cancer care are closely linked — early detection, regular monitoring, and expert medical guidance can make a critical difference in outcomes.

On this World Cancer Day, let us stand united in awareness and unique in care decisions — because no two patients are the same, and neither should their treatment approach be.

Early detection • Personalized treatment • Stronger outcomes

Wrap-Up: Resolutions Recap

A new year often begins with strong health goals — and even small steps toward kidney care can make a big difference over time.

This January, did you:
✔️ Drink more water daily?
✔️ Reduce excess salt and processed foods?
✔️ Monitor blood pressure or sugar regularly?
✔️ Stay active and manage weight?
✔️ Schedule a health check if needed?

If yes — you’re already supporting your kidneys.
If not — it’s never too late to start.

Your kidneys work quietly every day to keep you healthy. A few mindful habits today can protect them for years to come.

Take the next step:
If you have diabetes, high BP, or a family history of kidney disease, consider a preventive kidney evaluation.

Healthy habits. Regular checks. Long-term protection.

Kidney Biopsy: What to Expect

A kidney biopsy is a highly precise diagnostic procedure that helps doctors understand the exact cause and severity of kidney disease. With modern technology and expert handling, it is now safer, faster, and more comfortable for patients than ever before.

What Happens During a Kidney Biopsy?

* Performed under real-time ultrasound guidance for accuracy
* A fine needle is used to collect a tiny kidney tissue sample
* The procedure usually takes 15–30 minutes
* Local anesthesia ensures minimal discomfort

What Makes Today’s Biopsies Safer?

* Advanced imaging for precise needle placement
* Improved biopsy needles with minimal tissue trauma
* Continuous monitoring to reduce complications
* Faster recovery with same-day or short observation

Why Is a Kidney Biopsy Important?

* Confirms the exact diagnosis
* Guides personalized treatment decisions
* Helps assess disease progression and response to therapy

With innovation and expertise working together, kidney biopsy today is a valuable, safe, and patient-centric diagnostic tool when performed by an experienced nephrology team.

Dr. Lovy Gaur, Nephrologist - Glad to have received this opportunity of discussing “Optimising Renal Replacement Therapy in AKI” at SUMECON 2026, Subharti Medical College . It was a wonderful
Interaction, to say the least.

Shared key messages about in AKI
- Early initiation of dialysis isn’t always the rule
- ⁠Decision to initiate dialysis is guided mainly by compelling indications like hyperkalemia, fluid overload and metabolic acidosis
- ⁠Choice of dialysis be guided by hemodynamic status, availability, skill-set and experience of staff, lab support and of course finances.
- ⁠Dose and duration is generally guided by recovery of kidney functions, volume status of the patient and what additional benefits can be drawn from dialysis should we choose to continue it.

How to Interpret Function Tests
Understanding &

1. Serum Creatinine — What Does It Mean?

Creatinine is a waste product produced by muscles and removed by the kidneys.

Low creatinine: Usually normal

High creatinine: May indicate reduced kidney function

Levels can vary based on age, muscle mass, hydration, and medications

A single creatinine value does not tell the full story.

2. GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate) — The Real Indicator

GFR estimates how well your kidneys are filtering blood.

General interpretation:

GFR ≥ 90 → Normal kidney function

GFR 60–89 → Mild reduction (often early or age-related)

GFR 30–59 → Moderate kidney disease

GFR < 30 → Advanced kidney disease

GFR provides a clearer picture than creatinine alone.

Why Creatinine & GFR Must Be Read Together

Creatinine can appear “normal” even when kidney function is reduced

GFR adjusts for age and body factors, making it more reliable

Trends over time matter more than one isolated report

Important Reminder for Patients

Do not self-diagnose based on reports

Temporary illness, dehydration, or medicines can affect results

Always interpret reports clinically, not numerically

Expert Guidance Matters

Kidney reports need context, experience, and correlation with symptoms.
If your numbers seem confusing, timely medical advice can prevent progression.

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) — Stages Explained

Clinical clarity for informed kidney care

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a progressive condition. Understanding its stages helps patients and families make timely, informed decisions and slow disease progression.

CKD Stage 1

GFR ≥ 90 ml/min

Kidney function: Normal or near-normal

Key point: Early kidney damage may be present

Focus: Risk-factor control and regular monitoring

CKD Stage 2

GFR 60–89 ml/min

Kidney function: Mildly reduced

Often asymptomatic

Focus: Blood pressure, sugar control, lifestyle correction

CKD Stage 3

GFR 30–59 ml/min

Kidney function: Moderately reduced

Symptoms may begin (fatigue, swelling, anemia)

Focus: Medical optimization to slow progression

CKD Stage 4

GFR 15–29 ml/min

Kidney function: Severely reduced

Complications become more prominent

Focus: Advanced care planning and close supervision

CKD Stage 5

GFR < 15 ml/min

Kidney function: Kidney failure

Dialysis or transplant evaluation required

Focus: Renal replacement therapy and quality of life

Why early-stage detection matters

Slows progression of kidney damage

Reduces complications affecting heart, bones, and blood

Preserves long-term kidney function with timely care

Clear understanding leads to better outcomes.
Early evaluation, regular follow-up, and evidence-based treatment are key.
