Diabetic nephropathy. Causes, complications, and considerations.

Much effort has been devoted to understanding diabetic microvascular disease and its impact on renal complications since the classic report by Kimmelsteil and Wilson. However, in spite of impressive progress in certain areas, much confusion and disagreement remain in regard to the management of the diabetic patient with end-stage renal disease.
