Kidney disease affects over 850 million people and is set to impact even more. To prevent CKD, it’s vital to spot risks early and to consider the “ABCDE” risks. 📣Discover EKHA’s call to action on ABCDE to identify and prevent chronic kidney disease via bit.ly/4im4KeG

In an ageing population, clinical heterogeneity and declining kidney function with age may blur the lines of who should be offered genetic testing .. 🚨 Exciting news! Thrilled to share our latest publication in KIReports ! 🎉 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congratulations to Prof Patrick Forde on his incredible research. His latest study shows that the use of immunotherapy with chemotherapy before lung cancer surgery reduces the risk of cancer returning and improves long term survival. Please see: stjames.ie/aboutus/news/2…

Presented at #ERA25: In the CONFIDENCE trial in persons with chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes, combination therapy with finerenone and empagliflozin led to a greater reduction in the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio than either drug alone. Full trial results:

“Late-breaking” at the #ERA25 Natalie Stapling: analysis of “does acute dip in GFR with SGLT2i start impact AKI risk”. My wording. Predicted eGFR dip correlates well with observed (pic3).

"A new modelling analysis across eight countries predicts that with improved detection and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD), more people can stay off dialysis and therefore patients and caregivers remain engaged in their communities and workplaces."
