Answer
For reference, genuine glomerular alterations in diabetic nephropathy include: diffuse glomerular basement membrane thickening, mesangial matrix expansion (diffuse mesangial sclerosis), Kimmelstiel-Wilson nodules (nodular glomerulosclerosis — eosinophilic, PAS-positive nodules in the mesangium), hyalinization of both afferent and efferent arterioles (a relatively specific finding for diabetes), and eventual global glomerulosclerosis with progression to chronic kidney disease.
