The risk for diabetic nephropathy is low in young adults in a 17‐year follow‐up from the Diabetes Incidence Study in Sweden (DISS). Older age and higher BMI at diabetes onset can be important risk factors

The main objective of this study was to estimate the occurrence of diabetic nephropathy in a population‐based cohort of patients diagnosed with diabetes as young adults (15–34 years).
