With the rapid increase of diabetic nephropathy worldwide, type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease(ESRD). Pathological types of diabetic kidney disease(DKD) could be mainly divided into diabetic nephropathy（DN）and non-diabetic renal diseases（NDRD）. There are no accurate renal biopsy indications and standardized operation procedures for type 2 diabetic nephropathy. The clinical stages of type 2 diabetic nephropathy still referred to the Mogensen stage of type 1 diabetic nephropathy. Thus, our study aim to clarify the differences in clinical phenotype between type 2 DN and type 2 NDRD, analysis the correlation between clinical and pathological features, and offer the criteria for clinical staging and prognosis.
