Articles were assessed independently by two reviewers. Review Manager 5.1 was used fordata analysis.RESULTS: Fourteen randomized controlled experiments were included. Meta-analysis demonstrated that blood sugar levels and kidney weight to body weight ratios in the model group were higher than those in the normal group, and the curcumin group had significantly lower mesangial area to glomerular area ratios compared with the model group, and also lower levels of urinary protein,blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine.CONCLUSION: Curcumin shows protective effects on the kidneys of rats/mice with diabetes.展开更多
