Next week, on May 31 in American and June 1 in Europe, we will be discussing the two major AKI studies looking at the timing of renal replacement therapy:
Look for a formal background post later this week.
Background
This week, we will discuss SODaBIC trial: with ICU acidosis driven by multiple overlapping mechanisms, is bicarbonate infusion supported by robust evidence, or does it persist mainly out of habit rather than physiology?
Background
FIND-CKD extends finerenone beyond diabetic kidney disease, showing slower eGFR decline and sustained albuminuria reduction in non-diabetic CKD. While the benefits are modest and cardiovascular effects remain uncertain, the trial opens the door to broader use of nsMRAs and raises important questions about combination therapy with SGLT2 inhibitors.
Background
Can rivaroxaban improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with advanced CKD.? Although vascular inflammation and thrombosis are at the heart of CV damage, anticoagulants have not previously shown benefits in CVD patients.
Background
This week, NephJC will discuss whether obinutuzumab is ready to outperform tacrolimus in primary membranous nephropathy
