Response to Comment on Kelly et al. Subclinical First Trimester Renal Abnormalities Are Associated With Preeclampsia in Normoalbuminuric Women With Type 1 Diabetes. Diabetes Care 2018;41:120-127
We thank Foussard et al. (1) for their interest in our study (2). We agree that caution is required when identifying predictive markers of clinical interest in pregnant women with diabetes with regard to preeclampsia (PE). Accurate estimation of renal function is critical for the care of pregnant patients. Alper et al. (3) highlighted the limitations of currently available formulas for accurately predicting the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with PE. Our study focused on markers of renal function early in pregnancy prior to the clinical onset of PE. We studied a population with type 1 diabetes, thus at high risk of …
