Besides compensation, Dr. Steer points out: "Some fellows I see are very interested in 'work-life' balance and believe that nephrology can't accommodate that interest. I'd tell them that although nephrologists generally work fairly hard and take care of sick people, work-life balance is absolutely attainable in this specialty. I believe work-life balance is more a function of the physician than the specialty.

The top 7 donors in the 2024 election โ€” all GOP โ€” gave a combined $1B to buy Trump a second term.

It's a gigantic amount of money in total โ€” but it's just pocket change to them.

We must get Big Money out of politics.

No one from either party should be able to buy an election.

Usefulness of UPCR Measurements During AKI | Docwire News Researchers assessed whether changes in UPCR during severe AKI episodes are associated with how serum creatinine levels change at the time of sample collection for UPCR estimation.

UPCR measurements during AKI may lack accuracy due to reduced urine creatinine in the denominator. But are UPCRs measured during AKI hospitalizations still useful? #nephrology #nephsky #kidney #upcr #acutekidneyinjury

UPDATE: A federal judge broadened the scope of an earlier temporary restraining order, blocking Trump from deporting anyone under the Alien Enemies Act while the case proceeds.

Flights carrying Venezuelan immigrants the DHS attempted to deport were ordered to turn around and return to the U.S.
