#HYPHIP Hypertension A key feature of the CKiD study is the longitudinal design (participants return annually for study visits). We are very grateful for that! So anytime a participant came back to a visit and changed their ABPM status, we could incorporate that into the model. 1/2

An important paper led by Gayathri Menon, MHS, a talented and hard-working graduate of Johns Hopkins Epidemiology, a mentee and #Epi753 student. A product of #Epi753 concepts, CKiD Study data and her great scientific mind, we are very pleased to share it!

Children w/CKD are at risk for abnormalities in pubertal development. Read this Original Article that describes the timing of pubertal onset by luteinizing hormone levels & the association between hormonal onset of puberty w/changes in GFR. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

HUGE News! Our KI paper on a prediction model for pediatric kidney replacement therapy has been translated into an accessible clinical tool on kidney.wiki! Check out the tutorial by Dr. Town (Ryan Town 🀏🏽🫘) below and access the paper here sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Really great to have such tools in clinical practice! Of course, need for further external validation while keeping an unbiased clinical decision when making plans with the patients but the more tools we have like this, the easier our work is. Great job!

Pediatric nephrology tools at your fingertips... and FAST (it can be tough to cover up a primo wallpaper like this example but sometimes you need important info). Try out the kidney.wiki app and please explore the CKiD Pediatric Time to KRT Prediction Calculator!

Big congratulations to @jasonhaw for his defense and brilliant thesis! It is difficult to keep up with Johns Hopkins Epidemiology students and he was one of the worst offenders! πŸ™ƒ A great celebration of his accomplishment, and this is just the beginning for this talented epidemiologist!

A special CKiD Study paper that I'm so pleased is supported by NIDDK, @kidney_int, Ryan Town 🀏🏽🫘. This tool helps predict pediatric CKD progression to KRT (online at kidney.wiki). We did our best and our hope is that it is useful for clinicians treating ped CKD.
