.AJP Renal #APSselect study finds low oxygen-sensing pathways can protect against acute kidney injury after #HeartAttack, but worsened #ChronicKidneyDisease. Read press release and watch author interview with Andy Terker: ow.ly/5hbA50EhxyB CC: Dr. Heddwen Brooks, PhD, AJP-Renal Editor-in-Chief

In one month, I've diagnosed more cases of ATTR cardiomyopathy than I did in 10 years. If you don't look for it, you won't find it. A micro-tweetorial... What should you look for? Hanna Gaggin Frederick L Ruberg

Wonder why #nephrologists order that crazy 240 mg dose of IV Lasix for patients in #AKI? Here is a 30 sec animation, go:

Introducing the 2022-23 AJKD Editorial Interns: Alissar El Chediak Jeffrey Ha seolhyun lee seolhyun lee Mengyao Tang Dilushi Wijayaratne ajkdblog.org/2022/07/13/int…

It's been a joy to write this CJASN editorial with my mentor Sahir for the amazing work done by my future AJKD co-intern seolhyun lee from Dr. Meyer's lab Stanford Nephrology !!!

Very impt paper-- would it change practice? link.springer.com/article/10.100…

While effects of plasma potassium on cardiac arrhythmias are well-documented, studies suggest potassium-rich diets may delay progression of CKD. This Perspective comments on a clinical trial that assesses the impact of supplementing dietary potassium bit.ly/j2022070743

Come to PO240 to learn the pitfalls of using A1c in CKD patients: anemia and carbamylation! #KidneyWk

Finally got to meet Harv Feldman EIC AJKD and my fellow Ed Intern Mengyao Tang Look forward to working with the rest of the team this yr! #KidneyWk

Excited to share our work now published in Diabetes Care, highlighting the limitations of HbA1c in patients with CKD, including competition from carbamylation and presence of anemia. Mass General Kidneys

This study found in patients with stages 2–4 CKD, protein carbamylation, a posttranslational protein modification partially driven by elevated blood urea levels, appears to be an independent risk factor for progression to ESKD bit.ly/JASN078 Sagar Nigwekar

Important work highlighting limitations of eGFR calculators for assessment of kidney function in living donors even when including both creatinine and cystatin-C. Kudos to Ayman Al Jurdi, MD FASN & Kassem Safa who leads our Mass General Transplant living donor program 👏

Protein carbamylation associates with adverse outcomes in ESKD. This study found having a higher level of protein carbamylation as measured by circulating C-Alb is an independent risk factor for ESKD in individuals with CKD stages 2–4 bit.ly/JASN078 Sagar Nigwekar

I’m very grateful for the opportunity to write a commentary on this important paper AJKD, which comprehensively reviews the sick day medication guidance, a crucial aspect of our day-to-day practice as nephrologists.

Thank you AJKD for the opportunity to write an editorial on a research topic dear to my heart.

Our systematic review in AJKD - CKD should be regarded as an independent risk factor for new-onset atrial fibrillation. We should consider screening for AF in CKD #cardiorenal @badves Dearbhla Kelly Brendon Neuen Min Jun Vlado Perkovic ajkd.org/article/S0272-…

Very grateful towards AHA for the opportunity to present and support our research in CKM syndrome! #AHA23

Thrilled to have our research on glycated albumin & adverse outcomes in #CKD patients published in AJKD. Important implications for #diabetes care in CKD. ajkd.org/article/S0272-…

Very interesting physiology and pathophysiology.
