Circulating TNF receptors and risk of renal disease progression, cardiovascular disease events and mortality in patients with diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetes complications. This study aims to assess the association between circulating inflammatory biomarkers TNF receptors (TNFRs) and the risk of renal disease progression, cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, and mortality in patients with diabetes.
