New CJASN podcast discusses validation of the Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease EVENTs equations in CKD. Findings highlight the greatest clinical utility in earlier kidney disease, before risk becomes evident from eGFR and albuminuria alone. #ASNCJASN

#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

#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

Could plasma tacrolimus monitoring better detect tacrolimus-related kidney toxicity? In the ALLEGRO trial, higher plasma tacrolimus levels linked to lower eGFR and arteriolar hyalinosis, while whole blood levels were not. Larger studies needed to confirm findings. kidney.pub/CJASN1214 #ASNCJASN

A study in #ASNCJASN suggests dietary processing may matter for kidney health. Among 2,661 older adults, higher intake of ultra-processed foods, particularly animal-sourced UPFs, was associated with increased CKD risk. Further research is needed. kidney.pub/CJASN1207 @uwnephrology.bsky.social

In >5,000 adults with CKD, adding urinary MCP-1, KIM-1, and EGF to traditional risk measures modestly improved prediction of kidney failure and disease progression, suggesting tubular injury biomarkers may refine risk stratification. #ASNCJASN. kidney.pub/CJASN1203

What if the biggest cancer risk isn't a single drug, but the sum of every immunosuppressive exposure over a lifetime? This perspective in #ASNCJASN introduces "net immunosuppression" as a new way to think about cancer risk in glomerular disease. kidney.pub/CJASN1235 @kdjhaveri.bsky.social

Managing iron-deficiency anemia is a challenge in CKD. This randomized trial in #ASNCJASN found that adding lactoferrin to oral iron improved hemoglobin and iron status more than iron alone, suggesting a potentially accessible treatment strategy. kidney.pub/CJASN11204 @divyaveerssneph.bsky.social
