Summary

This study looks at 270 adults with diabetic kidney disease to see if gut bacteria and blood chemicals influence blood sugar swings and disease progression. Researchers will track participants over time using continuous glucose monitors and stool/blood samples. The goal is to find early warning signs and improve care, not to test a new treatment.
