Gut microbiota composition was explored to be related to the occurrence of biopsy-proven DN from DM. DM could be distinguished from HC by detecting g_Prevotella_9 level in feces, while DN was different from DM by the variables of g_Escherichia-Shigella and g_Prevotella_9, which potentially contributed to the physiopathological diagnosis of DN from DM.
