Diabetic Kidney Disease or Non-Diabetic Renal Disease?
What patients care about most is which symptoms indicate diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Early diagnosis allows early treatment.We will discuss how to diagnose DKD and how to differentiate it from non‑diabetic renal disease (NDRD) when proteinuria occurs.Diagnosis of Diabetic Kidney DiseaseDiabetic kidney disease may be diagnosed in diabetic patients who meet the following criteria: It […]
Professor Chen Liming: Say Goodbye to Daily Dosing Biweekly DPP-4 Inhibitor Provides More Stable Glycemic Control, Higher Patient Satisfaction, and Long-Term Benefits
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disease. Stable glycemic control is critical not only for quality of life—including daily energy, appetite, and sleep—but also for preserving islet function and preventing long-term complications. As the 2026 American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines further expand the eligible population for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), precise evaluation […]

Possible Interaction Between Hypertension and Malnutrition
In recent years, some scholars have proposed the concept of “malnutrition‑inflammation‑atherosclerosis syndrome”.This syndrome consists of three core components: malnutrition, inflammation, and atherosclerosis.The three components interact and aggravate each other, forming a vicious cycle.Malnutrition can induce chronic inflammation, which in turn promotes the progression of atherosclerosis, including vascular wall damage and calcification.Therefore, malnutrition may lead to […]
Correlation between Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) and Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Elderly Hypertensive Patients
The Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) is a simple and effective prognostic evaluation tool that can rapidly assess the nutritional status of elderly individuals. In recent years, numerous studies have confirmed that GNRI has important value in predicting the prognosis of patients with various diseases, including hemodialysis, cancer, heart failure, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. […]
Evidence-Based Support and Standard Construction Promote the Standardized Application of CGM
The 2025 ADA guidelines recommend the use of real‑time continuous glucose monitoring without fingerstick calibration (rtCGM) or intermittent scanned CGM (isCGM) for diabetes management in adolescent and adult patients receiving any type of insulin therapy.A systematic review and meta‑analysis of randomized controlled trials has shown that fingerstick‑calibration‑free continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) significantly improves glycemic control […]
Technological Innovation Drives Diabetes Management into a New Stage
In recent years, the concept of diabetes management has gradually shifted from intensive glycemic control to integrated glucose‑weight management, emphasizing equal importance of weight control and blood glucose regulation.The 2022 ADA/EASD consensus elevated weight management to a level equivalent to blood glucose control and cardio‑renal protection.The 2025 ADA guidelines and 2024 CDS guidelines also explicitly […]
