In our latest article, we investigated the role of galectin-3 in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease. A systematic review was conducted, suggesting that increased serum galectin-3 values are associated with a significantly higher mortality risk.

Exploring Polycystic Kidney Disease: Challenges and Innovations in Treatment. Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) represents a significant challenge in nephrology, characterized by cyst formation that can lead to kidney enlargement and dysfunction. SciePro’s latest educational materials offer insights into the genetic basis, progression, and current advancements in treatment options for PKD. Essential reading for healthcare professionals involved in kidney health and patient care. https://lnkd.in/ec3_6ZKw #MedicalEducation #Nephrology #PKD

Arbor Research at American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2024! Ting Lu of Arbor Research will be presenting the findings of the study “Gabapentin Use and Adverse Effects among Hemodialysis Patients Diagnosed with Pruritus or Neuropathic Pain in US Claims Data” on October 24, 2024, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM in the Exhibit Hall. This research explores real-world utilization of gabapentin among over half a million US hemodialysis patients, focusing on its use for managing chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) and neuropathic pain (NP). The study reveals important insights into gabapentin dosing patterns, time to discontinuation, and associated risks of adverse events like altered mental status and falls, especially in off-label use for CKD-aP. Don’t miss this chance to gain new perspectives on balancing treatment benefits and risks in managing symptoms for hemodialysis patients. Join us in supporting Ting Lu’s important contribution to the field of nephrology! #ASN2024 #KidneyWeek2024 #Nephrology #Gabapentin #Hemodialysis #CKD #RealWorldEvidence
