Phenotyping normal kidney function in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional multicentre study

Aims: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) accelerates the decline in glomerular function; however, some individuals do not develop chronic kidney disease despite advanced age and long-lasting T2D. We aimed to phenotype patients with T2D aged 80 years or older who presented with a fully preserved kidney function.
