This week, we will discuss the origins of primary hyperaldosteronism in normotensive patients. Could this undetected anomaly be the cause of idiopathic hypertension and CKD?
This week, we will discuss the HOPE trial - no not that one - the one in dialysis that was a LBCT in 2024. Should we look beyond analgesics to non-pharmacological options more seriously?
Should we call 2024 the Renaissance of nephrology? It was probably the richest year in RCTs in the nephrology world, reflected in the higher number of Late-Breaking Clinical Trials sessions at every big nephrology congress. Probably 1st place won’t surprise anyone; it was the anticipated FLOW of the year, but this Top 10 Nephrology Stories definitely includes some unexpected titles
This week we come to meta-analyse, strikingly late, the cornerstone of all CKD treatments. Are you still in doubt? We need ACEing CKD to the end of GFR, and beyond
El ensayo HOPE nos muestra que las intervenciones no farmacológicas pueden ser una opción viable para los pacientes en hemodiálisis. ¿Es hora de integrar estas estrategias en la práctica clínica?

This week, nephrologists hope they found the key to no-dialysis-land, where kindness and detailed, multistep interventions make the path to kidney transplant much easier. This was foreseen in our Freely Filtered episode and disputed during #KidneyWK 2023 late-breaking clinical trials session. Still, when it comes to RCTs’ results, will it be Deja Vu or a happy ending?
Does testing for coronary heart disease before kidney transplant improve post transplant outcomes? To know the answer check out the beautiful VAs created by NSMC Interns Renz and Nihal!
