Mashup Score: 14Peer Support Interventions for People With CKD: A Scoping Review - 3 month(s) ago
Formalized peer support is a promising approach for addressing the emotional and practical needs of people living with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to systematically identify and summarize peer support interventions studied in individuals with CKD with or without kidney replacement therapy (KRT).

Mashup Score: 0Higher urine alpha-1-microglobulin concentration linked to incident CKD in some patients - 6 month(s) ago
Higher urine alpha-1-microglobulin concentration may be associated with incident chronic kidney disease in patients without prevalent CKD or diabetes, according to published data.“The need for sensitive and noninvasive measures of tubulointerstitial health fuels the development of new kidney biomarkers,” Jonathan G. Amatruda, MD, of the University of California San Francisco, wrote

Mashup Score: 14Association Between Particulate Matter Pollution and CKD Mortality by Social Deprivation - 7 month(s) ago
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains an important driver of mortality in the United States.1 Traditional risk factors such as diabetes and hypertension only partially explain geographical variation in CKD mortality. There is increasing evidence that environmental and socioeconomic factors are key determinants of health outcomes in CKD. Recent findings suggest that air pollution, specifically particulate matter<2.5 microns (PM2.5), may be an important risk factor for CKD-related morbidity and mortality.
