🩸 Looking after your blood sugar is also part of looking after your kidneys.

Many people with diabetes do not know they have it. Checking your blood sugar can help you understand your health and identify problems earlier.
If you have diabetes, regular blood and urine tests can also help monitor your kidney health.

Bottom line on AKI by @BrettCullis at @ISPD1
AKI affects the young on LMICs
Most die because they cannot get timely care
Treatment for AKI saves lives, restores livelihoods
Must be funded
