Abstract

Aims: To develop a position statement which identifies research priorities in diabetic kidney disease and provides recommendations to researchers and research funders on how best to address them.

Methods: A one-day research workshop was conducted, bringing together research experts in diabetes and kidney disease, healthcare professionals and people living with diabetes, to identify and prioritise research recommendations.

Results: The following key areas were identified as needing increased focus:

· Understanding causal mechanisms in diabetic kidney disease

· Prevention of diabetic kidney disease

· Addressing health inequalities

· Improving diagnosis

· Improving care

· Supporting self-management

Conclusions: This position statement outlines recommendations to address the urgent need to tackle diabetic kidney disease and calls on the diabetes and kidney research communities to act upon these recommendations to ensure future research works to eliminate unfair and avoidable disparities in health.
