Construction of a prognostic assessment model for diabetic nephropathy based on serum fibrinogen and renal tissue IFTA score

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the association between serum fibrinogen (FIB) and clinicopathological features and renal prognosis in type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN), and develop a web‐based dynamic model to predict renal progression. Methods This paper retrospectively enrolled 173 biopsy‐proven T2DN patients and stratified them by the optimal FIB ...
