Most circulating biomarkers of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression focus on factors reflecting glomerular filtration. Few biomarkers capture nonglomerular pathways of kidney injury or damage, which may be particularly informative in populations at high risk for CKD progression such as individuals with diabetes. Cohort study. 594 participants (...

Equations for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) that incorporate a term for race assign a higher value to Black individuals compared to non-Black individuals for the same sex, age, and serum creatinine concentration. This difference may contribute to racial disparities in kidney transplant access. We sought to (1) compare time from meetin...

Benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on kidney outcomes have been demonstrated in clinical trials. Among patients with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular (CV) disease enrolled in the EMPA-REG OUTCOME study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01131676), empagliflozin added to standard of care (SOC) reduced the risk of inci...

Tubular basement membrane (TBM) deposits are very uncommon in non-lupus membranous nephropathy. We report 5 patients with membranous nephropathy and extensive TBM deposits following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant. Patients presented with nephrotic syndrome (3 also had acute kidney injury) late post-transplant in association with chronic g...

Hypertonic saline has been used for the treatment of hyponatremia for nearly a century. There is now general consensus that hypertonic saline should be used in patients with hyponatremia associated with moderate or severe symptoms to prevent neurological complications. However, much less agreement exists among experts regarding other aspects of its...

Hypervolemia and vitamin D deficiency occur frequently in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis and may contribute to left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy. The effect of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)-guided volume management or vitamin D supplementation on LV mass among those receiving peritoneal dialysis is uncertain. Two-by-two factorial r...

The current classification system for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and minimal change disease (MCD) does not fully capture the complex structural changes in kidney biopsies nor the clinical and molecular heterogeneity of these diseases. Prospective observational cohort study. 221 MCD and FSGS patients enrolled in the Nephrotic Syndrome...

Poisoning is a common problem in the United States. Acid-base disturbances, electrolyte derangements, or acute kidney injury result from severe poisoning from toxic alcohols, salicylates, metformin, and acetaminophen. Lithium is highly sensitive to small changes in kidney function. These poisonings and drug overdoses often require the nephrologist'...
