Editorial issue 334
This 334th issue of NDT-E releases 3 very recent NDT papers. In the first one, C Bechade et al have studied the “Centre characteristics associated with the risk of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis: a hierarchical modelling approach based on the data of the French Language Peritoneal Dialysis Registry”. In the second one, P Rossignol et al report on “Hyperkalaemia prevalence, recurrence and management in chronic haemodialysis: a prospective multicentre French regional registry 2-year survey”.

Editorial issue 333
The first 3 papers of this 333rd issue of NDT-E were very recently published in the JCI. The first 2 ones originate from the German group of Jens Titze. In a series of elegant experiments, this group extends seminal observations initially made in space travellers on the existence of salt storage in skin in an osmotically inactive form. These observations have now triggered, as is always the case with top science, additional questions that are now progressively addressed.

Editorial issue 332
This 332nd issue of NDT-E starts with a transslational paper, recently published by the JCI. W Bess et al (the group of S Somlo, from Yale), indeed report that “Isolated polycystic liver disease genes define effectors of polycystin-1 function”.
The next 4 papers all were recently published in NDT
A Burlacu et al first discuss “The quest for equilibrium: exploring the thin red line between bleeding and ischaemic risks in the management of acute coronary syndromes in chronic kidney disease patients”.Visualizza -
Editorial issue 331
This 331st editorial of NDT-E starts with 4 recent NDT papers. In the first one, FF Wei et al report that “The risk of nephrolithiasis is causally related to inactive matrix Gla protein, a marker of vitamin K status: a Mendelian randomization study in a Flemish population”. Next S Schwab et al report on “Urinary tract infection: recent insight into the evolutionary arms race between uropathogenic Escherichia coli and our immune system”. And Y Obi et al have studied a completely differenty topic: “Prediction equation for calculating residual kidney urea clearance using urine collections for different hemodialysis treatment frequencies and interdialytic intervals”.

Editorial issue 330
Let me start this editorial for issue 330 of NDT-E by highlighting that this is the time of the World Kidney Day (WKD). Accordingly, the 5 papers selected for this issue of NDT-E all deal with aspects of Obesity and its links with the kidney, the theme of WKD this year. The first 4 papers are very recent ones from NDT. The first one is entitled 2Obesity and kidney disease: hidden consequences of the epidemic”
by Csaba P. Kovesdy, Susan L. Furth, Carmine Zoccali, et al.Visualizza -
Editorial issue 329
Let me start this 329th issue of NDT-E with a paper published recently by the ERA-EDTA Descartes Working group, devoted to transplantation. U. Maggiore et al review and discuss the “Long-term risks of kidney living donation”. A timely contribution on an important topic!

Editorial issue 328
The first 2 papers of this (328th) issue of NDT-E eventually shed light on the hitherto unexplained association between skin ichtyosis and nephrotic syndrome. Indeed S Lovric et al and R Prasad el al publish indepedently in the same issue of the JCI papers entitled “Mutations in sphingosine-1-phosphase lyase cause nephrosis with ichthyosis and adrenal insufficiency and “Sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase mutations cause primary adrenal insufficiency and steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome”.

Editorial issue 326
The 3 first papers of this 326th issue of NDT-E were recently published in NDT. In the first one, JA van den Brand et al report on “Lifetime risk of renal replacement therapy in Europe: a population-based study using data from the ERA-EDTA Registry”. Next, H Izzedine H et al report on 2Renal effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors”. And J Boucquemont et al deal with “Identifying subgroups of renal function trajectories2. Again 3 topics of definite current interest.

Editorial issue 325
Let me start the editorial of this 325th issue of NDT-E with some basic science exciting papers. The 3 papers were recently published in the JCI.
In the first one, KS Rathod et al show that “Accelerated resolution of inflammation underlies sex differences in inflammatory responses in humans”. A useful piece of information to help elucidate a complex topic.Visualizza -
Editorial issue 324
This issue of NDT-E will give access, as usual, to 5 papers of interest. The first 3 ones were recently published in NDT.
In the first one, Richard Glassock, stresses the importance of long-term control of albuminuria in CKD, and in diabetic nephropathy in particular. The title of this very clear contribution is “Control of albuminuria in overt diabetic nephropathy: durability counts”.
Next, Tamer Rezk et al. publish on “Diagnosis, pathogenesis and outcome in leucocyte chemotactic factor 2 (ALECT2) amyloidosis”. Then Laurent Weekers, et al. report that “The closure of arteriovenous fistula in kidney transplant recipients is associated with an acceleration of kidney function decline”.Visualizza
