Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), one of the common microvascular complications of diabetes, is increasing in prevalence worldwide and can lead to End-stage renal disease. However, there are still gaps in our understanding of the pathophysiology of DKD, and both current clinical diagnostic methods and treatment strategies have drawbacks. According to recent research, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are intimately linked to the developmental process of DKD and could be viable targets for clinical diagnostic decisions and therapeutic interventions. Here, we review recent insights gained into lncRNAs in pathological changes of DKD such as mesangial expansion, podocyte injury, renal tubular injury, and interstitial fibrosis. We also discuss the clinical applications of DKD-associated lncRNAs as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets, as well as their limitations and challenges, to provide new methods for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of DKD.

After reading the article written by Wang et al., we have encountered several concerns that may compromise the credibility of the article. There are some factors, such as changes in sleep patterns, glucose tolerance status, and the use of hypnotics, which may interfere with the research results. Additionally, the design of the sleep pattern could lead to biased outcomes. Therefore, we are writing this letter to recommend that further research should take these concerns into consideration.
在阅读了 Wang 等人撰写的文章后,我们遇到了几个可能会影响文章可信度的问题。有一些因素,如睡眠模式的变化、葡萄糖耐量状态和催眠药的使用,可能会干扰研究结果。此外,睡眠模式的设计也可能导致结果出现偏差。因此,我们写这封信建议进一步的研究应考虑到这些问题。
