This week, NephJC will discuss whether obinutuzumab is ready to outperform tacrolimus in primary membranous nephropathy
In this edition of NephJC, we discuss the largest case series of kidney biopsies in patients with Diabetes.
This week we will discuss whether a bundled, team-based hypertension intervention- featuring intensive BP targets, home monitoring, health coaching, and audit feedback- can overcome poverty, clinical inertia, and fragmented care to improve blood pressure control in low-income patients receiving care at federally qualified health centers.
This week, we will discuss a phase 2 trial of the TRPC6 inhibitor BI 764198 in FSGS—an early signal for a podocyte-targeted therapy showing proteinuria reduction but set against small numbers, heterogeneity, and methodological trade-offs that frame this as direction-finding rather than definitive evidence.
¿Hemos subestimado la frecuencia de la nefrópatía no diabética (NND) en pacientes diabeticos? Una cohorte basada en biopsias renales de 49,075 pacientes refuerza cuán heterogénea puede ser la NND y destaca las características clínicas más asociadas con la NND. ¿A quién debemos biopsiar? ¿Cuándo debemos sospecharla? ¿Cómo puede la histología cambiar el pronóstico?
Acompáñanos este martes en la discusión de #NephJC.
Have we been underestimating NDKD in patients with diabetes? A biopsy-based cohort of 49,075 patients reinforces just how heterogeneous kidney disease can be in DN and highlights the clinical features most strongly associated with NDKD. So, who should we biopsy? When should we suspect NDKD? And how can histology change prognosis?
Join us for this tuesday on the #NephJC discussion
