Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (ckd) represents a significant worldwide health challenge, with far-reaching implications for both patients and healthcare systems. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of ckd incidence at stages 3-5, examines the impact of statin therapy and other antihyperglycemic interventions, and identifies key predictive factors, offering valuable insights into the complex dynamics of ckd progression in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm). This was a single-centre retrospective cohort study based on data derived from electronic medical records (emr) of united arab emirates (uae) populations with diabetes mellitus, registered at outpatient clinics at tawam hospital in al ain, uae, between january 2011 and december 2021. This study utilized two cohort groups, one of which consisted of a group of patients who were receiving statin therapy and another group of patients who were not receiving statin therapy and purposeful sampling was used in the recruitment of these patients. T2dm patients aged ≥ 18 years who had serum hba1c level ≥ 6.5% and using one of the statin therapies were included. Patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (t1dm), who had undergone permanent renal replacement therapy, with under 1 year of follow-up and missing or incomplete data were excluded from the study.
