Abstract: Diabetic kidney disease accounts for over 40% cases of chronic kidney disease globally. Hypertension is a major risk factor for progression of diabetic kidney disease and the high incidence of cardiovascular disease and mortality in these people. Meticulous management of hypertension is therefore crucial to slow down the progression of diabetic kidney disease and reduce cardiovascular risk. Randomized controlled trial evidence differs in type 1 and type 2 diabetes and in different stages of diabetic kidney disease in terms of target blood pressure. Renin angiotensin blocking agents reduce progression of diabetic kidney disease and cardiovascular events in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, albeit differently according to the stage of chronic kidney disease. There is emerging evidence for the benefit of sodium glucose co-transporter-2, non-steroidal selective mineralocorticoid antagonists and endothelin-A receptor antagonists in slowing progression and reducing cardiovascular events in diabetic kidney disease. This UK guideline, developed jointly by diabetologists and nephrologists, has reviewed all available current evidence regarding the management of hypertension in DKD to produce a set of comprehensive individualized recommendations for blood pressure control and the use of antihypertensive agents according to age, type of diabetes and stage of chronic kidney disease (https://ukkidney.org/sites/renal.org/files/Management-of-hypertension-and-RAAS-blockade-in-adults-with-DKD.pdf). A succinct summary of the guideline including an infographic is presented here.
