If a patient is overloaded and their potassium is not an issue, do you usually do a isolated UF in the beginning or at the end of the dialysis session? Why?

IgnNobel prizes are coming!! I'm so excited for this year's winners, maybe a Nephrology award soon?
Also, I've just found out we can get tickets to meet de winners face-to-face, even in Europe! I might be fangirling too much but I love this idea
And since we are in Austria, Jennifer Lees showed us the big four of Vienna, only in #ERA25, always being #BeyondNephrology:

The day has come! I'm officially a nephrologist after completing my residency! Just got the best diploma in the world
Honestly blown away by this concept. I really love the idea of including our patients even in scientific meetings. Open communication is key for a good patient-doctor relationship
#VAS2025
You gotta love the clinical cases at #VAS2025. This time, Monnie Wasser showed us the importance of communication with you dialysis team, and why BMS are still no quite welcome in our HD patients...

On a side note, I'm really glad for the opportunity I had, alongside a fellow @vasyoungcom.bsky.social member, for moderating a session at #VAS2025 with Loreto Gesualdo, the origin of N-PATH

-⬇️carotid, renal, gut, capillaries and aortic flows
-⬆️coronary, cardiac output and pulmonary artery pressure.
As a result, a high-flux AVF can be dangerous in moderate-severe heart failure patients

John Lucas III shows us the different approaches to correction of the flow of fistulas according to its severity and presence of symptoms, specifically, distal ischemia

Prabir Roy-Chaudhury shakes the room with proper and difficult questions about our practice: should we change our mindset towards VA? Are we enough people worrying about or patients on this aspect? #VAS2025

Estoy disfrutando muchísimo. Resulta que, por el #DiaMundialDelRiñon, podemos votar por nuestra canción favorita y cantarla juntos la semana que viene. Si esto no nos define como la especialidad más random y friki que hay, yo ya no sé

Esto repercute también en las niñas, que sufren una falta de referentes en los que fijarse para desarrollar una carrera en el ámbito científico.
Según datos de la UNESCO, en 2021 el 31,7 % de los investigadores a nivel mundial eran mujeres.

Rosalind Franklin
Fue la primera en descubrir la estructura de doble hélice del ADN, pero todo el mérito se lo llevaron sus compañeros y jefes de laboratorio. Hoy en día todavía a día se sigue enseñando “el modelo de Watson y Crick”.
La contribución de las mujeres en la investigación ha sido suprimida sistemáticamente a lo largo de la historia en favor de sus compañeros hombres. Esto es lo que se conoce como el "efecto Matilda".🧵🧪

Honey, stop what you're doing, new hyponatremia research just dropped!
What's it say?
It looks like slow correction is associated with worse outcomes, like death and length of stay!
Was it just a small study?
No, it was a meta-analysis of almost 12,000 patients!

Por normal general, no debemos fiarnos de productos que ya vengan procesados. Lo que compramos en el súper generalmente lleva muchos ingredientes que no se recomiendan. Vegano no es sinónimo de saludable, y algunos alimentos pueden ser tan malos como las carnes procesadas.
