Highlights
- •A Bayesian meta-analysis method, which is more welcome than traditional meta-analysis, has so far not been performed in patients with DKD.
- •This analysis shows that ACEIs and ARBs generally have not dissimilar impacts on renoprotective outcomes.
- •Neither ACEIs nor ARBs can reduce the risk for cardiovascular death or all-cause mortality in DKD.
