This week, we will discuss the use of renal autologous cell therapy (REACT) in diabetic kidney disease.
This week, we will discuss 2026 KDIGO anemia management in patients with kidney disease
This week, we aim for an INFINITe allograft lifespan. or flozination in kidney transplant.
This week, we will discuss the POTCAST trial. It is a cardiology trial - but potassium belongs to nephrology.
REACT has landed to NephJC.
This time we explore rilparencel, an autologous kidney cell therapy injected directly into the renal cortex to slow kidney function decline in DKD and advanced CKD.
Is this the future of regenerative nephrology?

Anemia remains a central challenge in chronic kidney disease, influencing quality of life, cardiovascular risk, and clinical outcomes. The updated KDIGO 2026 guideline provides practical recommendations on iron management, ESAs, HIF-PHIs, and transfusion strategies, emphasizing individualized care and risk–benefit assessment.
Take a quick look at the VA by Michelle Fravel summarizing the key concepts and clinical take-home message
SGLT2i have reshaped cardiorenal care, but kidney transplant recipients have mostly been left out of the story. INFINITI starts to close that gap, testing the safety and physiology of dapagliflozin in stable KTR.

Can pushing K⁺ to the high-normal range reduce ICD shocks and hospitalizations? POTCAST challenges our fear of potassium.

The VALIANT phase 3 RCT shows that proximal C3 inhibition with pegcetacoplan leads to a significantly greater reduction in proteinuria compared with placebo in patients with C3G and primary immune-complex MPGN. This trial builds on prior upstream complement strategies and strengthens the case for disease-targeted therapy in C3G.

In patients with dialysis-dependent acute kidney injury, a conservative dialysis strategy was evaluated in the LIBERATE-D trial. Could less be more? Join the discussion in #NephJC, but first, check out the VA created by Sejal Lakhani
Curious how n-3 PUFAs may cut serious cardiovascular events in dialysis? 🐟
A big signal, a big dose, and a big discussion ahead — don’t miss this #NephJC!

Based on data from the CRIC study, this analysis dives deep into whether this lab mismatch is just noise… or a clinical signal we’ve been missing.

Nephrotic syndrome in kids can mean frequent relapses, high steroid burden, and tough treatment choices. So which helps maintain remission better: Tacrolimus or MMF?
See the Visual Abstract Krithika Mohan
Nephrotic syndrome in children, especially those with frequent relapses or steroid dependence, remains a therapeutic challenge. The STAMP trial compared tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil to help guide treatment decisions.
