Type 2 diabetic renal complications and microvascular injury: novel predictors of onset and progression, mechanisms of association with cardiovascular disease and the benefits of fenofibrate.

我们将研究与肾脏和血管疾病相关的糖尿病并发症的机制，重点是识别高危人群以及改善或预防这些并发症的方法。此外，我们将研究糖尿病肾病如何影响非肾脏相关问题，如心脏病，并检查非诺贝特对这两种疾病的益处。这种更深入的了解将有助于进一步开发用于肾脏和心血管疾病的药物。

We will investigate the mechanisms of diabetic complications related to kidney and blood vessel disease, focusing on identifying people at greater risk and ways to improve or prevent these complications. In addition, we will look at how diabetic kidney disease affects non-kidney related problems like heart disease and examine the benefit of fenofibrate on both. This greater understanding will aid further drug development in kidney and cardiovascular diseases.
