Effect of SGLT2 Inhibitors on Renal Resistive Index in Diabetic Nephropathy Patients: A Quasi-experimental Study [PDF]
Introduction: Diabetic Nephropathy (DN) is a frequent and severe complication of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) that often progresses to End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Renal Resistive Index (RI) and Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) are valuable
