GLP-1RA Semaglutide Delays the Progression of ADPKD Through Regulation of Glycolysis, Mitochondria Function and Ketosis - PubMed Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a genetic disease that is caused by mutations in PKD genes. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are a class of medicati...

For nuance: while leucine is framed as proinflammatory by augmenting atherosclerosis in mice via macrophages supposedly via mTOR, mTOR activation is actually the most prominent anti-inflammatory signaling mediator in myeloid cells such as macrophages (also via AA). Yes nature is complicated…

Kidney function trajectories before and after hospitalization for HFrEF by Drs. Kobayashi, Girerd et al.

academic.oup.com/eurheartj/ar...

In HFrEF, kidney function decline may precede a HF events by up to one year. Monitoring eGFR slopes may allow early detection of patients at risk.

Today at #WTC2025:

A patient with type 1 diabetes underwent transplantation of genetically modified allogeneic islet cells with no immunosuppression. The results of this study support the concept of immune evasion by these modified cells. Read the Brief Report: nej.md/3TXVgwp

One big outcome is the change in GFR slope. Tirzepatide slowed GFR decline by 3.54ml/min at 36 months which is absolutely fantastic! I imagine this has something to do with the reduction in mortality given how much mortality is caused by kidney disease in diabetics.

A figure showing the changes from baseline in systolic blood pressure (SBP), plasma aldosterone–renin ratio (ARR), and serum potassium level for each patient.

In 15 patients with primary aldosteronism, baxdrostat (a second-generation, nonimidazole aldosterone synthase inhibitor) resolved or reduced the severity of hypertension, excessive aldosterone production, and hypokalemia. Full SPARK study results: nej.md/40Js1kz

This is new. Higher vitamin D levels associated with higher prostate cancer prevalence 🤦🏻‍♂️

I'm sure the "taking vitamin D couldn't hurt" crowd will have an explanation forthcoming

Kidney disease is a worldwide killer. Treat it that way The international community has a golden opportunity to start reining in the escalating, mostly ignored global burden of chronic kidney disease.

Kidney disease should be recognised on WHO's priority list of non-communicable diseases, alongside cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes

What Does It Mean That Donald Trump Is a Fascist? Trump takes the tools of dictators and adapts them for the Internet. We should expect him to try to cling to power until death, and create a cult of January 6th martyrs.

Fascism is now in the algorithms, the neural pathways, the social interactions. How did we fail to see all this? “We wanted to see Trump in terms of his absences, so that our way of seeing the world would go unchallenged,” Timothy Snyder writes.
