In individuals with diabetes, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major comorbidity. However, it appears that there is worldwide confusion regarding which term should be used to describe CKD complicated with diabetes: diabetic nephropathy, diabetic kidney disease (DKD), CKD with diabetes, diabetes and CKD, etc. Similar confusion has also been reported in Japan. Therefore, to provide clarification, the Japanese Diabetes Society and the Japanese Society of Nephrology collaborated to update the corresponding Japanese term to describe DKD and clearly define the concept of DKD. In this review, we briefly described the history of kidney complications in individuals with diabetes and the Japanese definition of the DKD concept and provided our rationale for these changes.
在糖尿病患者中，慢性肾脏病（CKD）是一种主要的合并症。然而，对于应该使用哪个术语来描述合并糖尿病的CKD，全球似乎存在混淆：糖尿病肾病、糖尿病性肾脏疾病（DKD）、合并糖尿病的CKD、糖尿病与CKD等。在日本也有类似的混淆情况报道。因此，为了澄清，日本糖尿病学会和日本肾脏病学会合作更新了描述DKD的相应日语术语，并明确定义了DKD的概念。在这篇综述中，我们简要描述了糖尿病患者肾脏并发症的历史以及DKD概念的日语定义，并阐述了这些变化的理由。
