Type 2 diabetes is a leading cause of kidney failure.

the verdict
SUPPORTED
the evidence backs this
Recorded sources
6 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that type 2 diabetes is a leading cause of kidney failure?

Yes. A reference article states type 2 diabetes is the largest cause of kidney failure in the developed world, and a nephrology review states diabetic kidney disease remains the leading cause of kidney failure worldwide. Other sources confirm diabetes can cause kidney disease but do not establish it as a leading cause.
