#ASNCJASN: Only 24% of older adults with advanced CKD accurately perceived their kidney failure risk. Fatalism, caregiver burnout, and knowledge gaps remained key barriers, highlighting the need for better risk communication. kidney.pub/CJASN1220
There is still time to share your feedback! The focused update of the KDIGO 2027 CKD Guideline is available for public review through November 4, 2026.
Visit the KDIGO CKD Guideline website to download the draft and share your comments via the feedback survey: kdigo.org/guidelines/ckd-evaโฆ
The focused update addresses new evidence since publication of the KDIGO 2024 CKD Guideline on SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1-based therapies, and nsMRAs in people with CKD, excluding those receiving dialysis or who have received a kidney transplant.

A multicenter study evaluated ML to predict KRT or in-๐ฅ death in critically ill patients with rhabdomyolysis.
External validation showed good discrimination (AUROC 0.89), outperforming McMahon score.
Findings support further prospective validation before clinical use.
๐ฌ Beyond creatinine: Rethinking kidney recovery after AKI
Emerging biomarkers may reveal persistent injury, inflammation, adaptive repair & fibrosisโoffering new insights into long-term kidney outcomes.
Is it time to redefine AKI recovery?

๐ก #KidneyWk 2026 offered a valuable opportunity for ERA to strengthen international collaborations and explore new ways to advance nephrology worldwide.
๐ ERA leadership held fruitful meetings with the Japanese Society of Nephrology (JSN), KDIGO, and the Latin American Society of Nephrology and Hypertension (SLANH), reaffirming a shared commitment to scientific exchange, education and international cooperation.
โ๏ธ A key milestone was the signing of a new Memorandum of Understanding with JSN, marking an important step forward in our partnership.
๐ค These exchanges highlight the importance of working across borders, sharing knowledge and strengthening connections within the global nephrology community.

#ASNCJASN: A small, early eGFR dip may be a sign treatment is working. In MIRO-CKD, balcinrenone plus dapagliflozin produced modest, reversible eGFR reductions associated with greater lowering of blood pressure and albuminuria, with no increase in serious safety events. kidney.pub/CJASN1202
๐ซ Empagliflozin in ADPKD: A pilot RCT (JASN; n=50) showed good tolerability and an early eGFR dip followed by stabilization, but greater kidney volume increase vs placebo.
๐ฌ Larger trials needed.

Resistant hypertension remains a major global challenge. Better BP monitoring, optimized multidrug therapy, and emerging precision treatments are improving how we diagnose and manage this high-risk condition. #Review in #ASNCJASN. kidney.pub/CJASN1266

Late Breaking Clinical Trial #LBCT #KidneyWk: Empagliflozin at 25mg once daily was well-tolerated by ADPKD patients from @asnpublications
#Nephpearls
๐ Empagliflozin induced an expected acute decline in eGFR by 1 month, followed by stable eGFR.
๐ However, those treated with empagliflozin had a greater increase in kidney volume.
