The first big change in dialysis care in the US in decades, coming in 2025! I wrote about hemodiafiltration in this month’s #KidneyNews. (ASN is not yet on Bluesky?!?)

Correction Rates and Clinical Outcomes in Hospitalized Adults With Severe Hyponatremia This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the association of sodium correction rates with mortality among hospitalized adults with severe hyponatremia.

Honey, stop what you're doing, new hyponatremia research just dropped!

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!

A post with a bus stop sign has a steel seat attached to it and a pull-up bar. The post is set into the sidewalk. A house is visible in the background.

In the era of Instagrammable urbanism, sometimes the simple, low-cost and functional urban interventions don’t get enough attention. This very simple quick-install seating has been rolling out at #HamOnt’s space-constrained, lower-volume local bus stops.

What happens if you change from NaCl 0.9% to Dextrose G5% solution as universal drug solvent on icu? Less hypernatriemia! So proud that this is out!

Thanks @hswapnil.bsky.social for pushing the move to Bluesky. I think there’s a critical mass of the nephrology community here now to ditch the bird site. #NephSky #NephJC
