BACKGROUND: Hematuria is frequently present in podocytopathies, but its significance and prognostic value is not well described in these proteinuric kidney diseases. This study describes the prevalence and association between hematuria and kidney-related outcomes in these disorders. METHODS: Hematuria was assessed at the initial urinalysis in participants with the following podocytopathies, membranous nephropathy, minimal change disease, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, in the Nephrotic Syndrome Study Network (NEPTUNE) and Cure Glomerulonephropathy (CureGN) cohorts with >24 months of follow-up...

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a genetic disorder characterized by kidney cyst formation and progressive kidney function loss. Dietary interventions such as caloric restriction, intermittent fasting, and the ketogenic diet have recently emerged as potential strategies to induce metabolic reprogramming and slow ADPKD progression. We review the available evidence supporting the efficacy and safety of these interventions in ADPKD. Dietary interventions show promise in managing ADPKD by improving metabolic health and reducing oxidative stress...

BACKGROUND: In the US, over 50% of kidneys in the lowest 15% quality range (those with kidney donor profile index>85) are discarded. Studies suggest that utilizing more of these kidneys could benefit patients waiting for a transplant. This study assesses the tradeoffs physicians make when selecting recipients for lower quality kidneys. METHODS: A discrete-choice experiment (DCE) was administered to surgeons and nephrologists in the US who are involved in kidney acceptance decisions...

BACKGROUND: Hospital-acquired hypernatremia is highly prevalent, overlooked and is associated with unfavorable consequences. There are limited studies examining the outcomes and discharge dispositions of various levels of hospital-acquired hypernatremia in patients with or without chronic kidney disease. METHODS: We conducted an observational retrospective cohort study, and we analyzed the data of 1,728,141 million patients extracted from the Cerner Health Facts database (January 1st 2000- June 30 th 2018)...

BACKGROUND: Early interventions in chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been shown to improve health outcomes; however, gaps in access to nephrology care remain common. Nurse practitioners can improve access to care; however, the quality and outcomes of nurse practitioner care for CKD are uncertain. METHODS: In this propensity score matched cohort study, patients with CKD meeting criteria for nurse practitioner care were matched 1:1 on their propensity scores for; 1) nurse practitioner care versus primary care alone, as well as 2) nurse practitioner versus nephrologist care...

BACKGROUND: Hypocomplementemia and complement co-deposition with monoclonal immunoglobulins in glomeruli are not rare in proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposits (PGNMID). Deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulins in glomeruli has been suggested to activate complement and cause kidney injury. However, the profiles of complement activation in PGNMID and their clinical and pathological significance need to be clarified. METHODS: Forty-six patients with PGNMID were enrolled...

BACKGROUND: Distal ischemia is a rare complication in patients undergoing placement of an arteriovenous (AV) fistula or AV graft. There are limited studies on its frequency, risk factors, clinical consequences, or feasibility of subsequent access. METHODS: A prospective vascular access database from a large academic medical center was queried retrospectively to identify 1,498 patients (mean age 56 ± 15 years, 48% females, 73% Black patients) undergoing placement of at least one vascular access from 2011-20...

BACKGROUND: Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a major complication of patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Upacicalcet, a new injectable calcimimetic, acts on calcium-sensing receptors to suppress parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. We examined the efficacy and safety of upacicalcet in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism receiving HD. METHODS: In this phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, we randomized Japanese patients undergoing HD with serum intact PTH (iPTH) concentrations >240 pg/ml and corrected calcium concentrations ≥8...

Chronic interstitial nephritis in agricultural communities (CINAC) is an epidemic of kidney disease affecting specific tropical and subtropical regions worldwide and is characterized by progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the absence of traditional risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes. CINAC prevalence is higher among young, male agricultural workers, but also affects women, children, and non-agricultural workers in affected areas. Biopsies from patients with CINAC across regions commonly demonstrate tubular injury with lysosomal aggregates, tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis, variable glomerular changes...

BACKGROUND: Men with chronic kidney disease (CKD) tend to experience a faster estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline than women, potentially due to sex hormones. Limited research exists regarding the effect of gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) on kidney function. Furthermore, monitoring kidney function during GAHT is challenging, as serum creatinine is confounded by body composition. To investigate the relationship between sex hormones and kidney function, we studied the changes of serum creatinine and serum cystatin C, a filtration marker less affected by sex, during one year of GAHT...

BACKGROUND: B-cell depletion with rituximab induces sustained remission in children with steroid-dependent or frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome. However, most patients relapse after B-cell recovery and some patients do not achieve B-cell depletion. Obinutuzumab is a second-generation anti-CD20 antibody designed to overcome such situations in B-cell malignancies and recently reported to be safe and effective in other autoimmune diseases affecting the kidneys. METHODS: We retrospectively report 41 children with steroid-dependent or frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome treated with a single low-dose infusion of obinutuzumab at Robert-Debre Hospital between April 2018 and December 2020...

Advocacy and policy change are powerful levers to improve quality of care and better support patients on home dialysis. While the kidney community increasingly recognizes the value of home dialysis as an option for patients who prioritize independence and flexibility, only a minority of patients dialyze at home in the United States. Complex system-level factors have restricted further growth in home dialysis modalities, including limited infrastructure, insufficient staff for patient education and training, patient-specific barriers, and suboptimal physician expertise...

BACKGROUND: Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) are one of the most prevalent, fatal, and costly complications of hemodialysis with a central venous catheter (CVC). The LOCK IT-100 trial compared the efficacy and safety of a taurolidine/heparin catheter lock solution that combines taurolidine 13.5 mg/mL and heparin (1000 units/mL) versus heparin in preventing CRBSIs in participants receiving hemodialysis via CVC. METHODS: LOCK IT-100 was a randomized, double-blind, active-control, multicenter, phase 3 study that enrolled adults with kidney failure undergoing maintenance hemodialysis via CVC from 70 US sites...
