DKD, urimodulin
Brief summary
Several studies have investigated the association between the changes of serum uromodulin and diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, the results are still controversial. Hence, this meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association of uromodulin with DN.
Interventions
Meta analysis of association of serum uromodulin with DKD
DN patients were divided according to the level of albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), or albumin excretion rate (AER) in patients with DN

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Studies were included if they met the following criteria: 1. serum level of uromodulin was determined; 2. the samples were enrolled from diabetic patients; 3. mean ± SD was reported for uromodulin between patients with and without DN; 4. the level of albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), or albumin excretion rate (AER) in patients with DN was determined
Exclusion criteria
* Studies were excluded according to the following criteria: 1. duplicate studies; 2. review articles; 3. non original research articles; 4. studies with insufficient data to extract; 5. non-human research; 6. studies that determined urine level of uromodulin.
