This week we discussed aprocitentan, another endothelin receptor antagonist, this time being explored in the resistant hypertension arena - you know the #TenTweetNephJC drill, if you want a rapid catch up then here’s your place!
Day 3 : yet another IgA trial, and we are back with some flozin news: in ADPKD, their effect on hemoglobin, and on BP (with finerenone)
Day 2 was less exciting: we cover 1 IgA trial (Ravulizumab) along with another calcimimetic, and a pentoxifylline meta-analysis.
Day of Kidney Week 2026. The NephJC crew discusses 6 studies, including some blockbustr IgA news.
This week, we will discuss whether decreased donor transplantation improves mortality in all patients. In this target trial emulation standard donor, extended donor, donation after brain death and donation after cardiac death outcomes are compared across age groups with different co-morbid conditions.

Would a new drug option for resistant hypertension get you excited? How about a superior trial design?
