However, when proteinuria occurs without diabetic retinopathy, with hematuria, or persists despite strict glycemic and blood pressure control, it is considered atypical for DN and warrants further evaluation for non\u2010DN via kidney biopsy. Nevertheless, comprehensive information on renal histopathology and prognosis following kidney biopsy remains limited. This study aimed to clarify these issues through a retrospective analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 490 patients who underwent kidney biopsy at Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital between 2013 and 2024, 51 Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes who met at least one criterion for proteinuria atypical for DN were included. Pre\u2010 and post\u2010biopsy changes in proteinuria levels and eGFR decline rate, as well as renal histology, were analyzed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among the 51 patients, 17 (33.3%) were histologically diagnosed with typical DN, whereas 34 (66.7%) were diagnosed with non\u2010DN, including membranous nephropathy, immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, renal sclerosis, interstitial nephritis, vasculitis, and others. Compared with the DN group, patients with non\u2010DN were significantly older and had a lower prevalence of diabetic retinopathy. Additionally, the non\u2010DN group showed significant improvements in both proteinuria levels and in the eGFR decline following biopsy and appropriate disease\u2010specific therapy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A kidney biopsy identified a wide range of kidney diseases as the underlying causes of atypical proteinuria in DN, particularly in elderly patients, thereby improving renal outcomes.
