@Ask_Renal is there a published SPRINT substudy for participants with ckd4? And aside from CLICK, have there been any other HTN trials in the last decade for people with ckd4? Or ckd5 for that matter? #askrenal

[DanBlummy @DanBlummy]

#askrenal Anybody aware of any registries for people with kidney disease from ALECT2 amyloid? And is anybody studying this condition?

Congrats Queens - top10 finish overall that’s amazingly impressive! Left the rest of us in the dust. @RitaSuri27
I guess we’ll have to temporarily part with our trophy until we take it back next year!!

An incredible breakthrough & great news for our patients - the first ever treatment proven to reduce hospitalized heart failure or CV death in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

@carignan_alex Ceci s’applique également aux patients en dialyse, qui ont été très touchés par la pandémie. Le Réseau Rénal Québécois a joué un rôle prépondérant dans cette excellente décision, en étant les premiers à publier sur l’efficacité vaccinale en dialyse: https://t.co/whui86UmUg

[DanBlummy @DanBlummy]

@PD_Perls @hswapnil Exactly! We had 10% people initially decline to get the vaccine... then a week later, after witnessing many of their neighbours receiving a dose and talking with the team, at least half of those patients changed their minds.

[DanBlummy @DanBlummy]

@hswapnil I agree, that makes no sense! In Montreal we've been vaccinating our patients in our unit when they come for HD. Our team has vaccinated over 130 patients so far, and still counting...

Is there any data on the use of a one-month course of MMF or Cellcept given post pRBC transfusion to prevent allosensitization of a potential future kidney transplant recipient with severe anemia? @askrenal #askrenal

Great systematic review from ⁦@drsamsilver⁩ ⁦@DrRonWald⁩ and Ziv Harel from ⁦@UnityHealthTO⁩ showing that ONE THIRD of Covid hospitalizations are complicated by AKI and almost 20% in the ICU require dialysis. Huge implications. #COVID19 https://t.co/o97jDbgDMW
