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.

We also have a Spanish version of the Visual Abstract, courtesy Pablo Garcia:
To most Nephrologists, Nephronophthisis (NPH) is considered to be a rare autosomal recessive paediatric disease. However, this article by Snoek et al challenges that belief, by examining the prevalence of mutations that cause NPH, in adults with end stage renal disease (ESRD). Read our NephJC summary below and come along to our Twitter Journal Club discussion to find out whether you might consider a diagnosis of NPH, next time you see that patient carrying a label of ‘ESRD, cause unknown’.
