From secondary to primary prevention of progressive renal disease: the case for screening for albuminuria.

abstract：:Incretin-based drugs, i.e., glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, are widely used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In addition to the primary role of incretins in stimulating insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells, they have extra pancreatic functions ...
